Kerri's apartment was way more beautiful than we could expect! We really love her outdoor jaccuzzi, had a really nice time chilling in it under the stars! Kerri is one of the most hospitable host we've met. My friend had phobia of animals, and she even took the initiative to keep her favorite dog away from my friend. Thought that was a pretty awful compromise for a dog lover, but she did it just so my friend would enjoy the stay! Thumbs up, Kerri! Thank you so much for making our stay so fun and enjoyable, we'll definitely be back if we're heading down Gold Coast again! (((:

If you are skipping through the photos of Kerri-Lea's place and wondering if there's might be a bit photoshop-adding done - believe me: no, it's not! The place is as gorgeous as on the pictures shown (and even more). We felt so happy that we've chosen this place, as it was the perfect start in our family-vacation. But it wasn't not only perfect because of the location with all it amenities, no it was also because of Kerri-Lea. She is definitely the best host you can imagine! (Or better: imagine the best and add some extra-stars - that's Kerri-Lea). She surprised us with fresh strawberries, delicious cheese, shared her favorite wine with us and gave us a feeling of being invited by a good friend. We really appreciate the fact, that she shared her piece of heaven with us! Our parents enjoyed the house and especially the pool area so much, that I've seen them for the first time happily splashing around in the water like kids. Kerri-Lea even improved the already very well-maintained pool and bar area by providing a brand new pro-bbq! (For German grill-fans that was even more like feeling in paradise!) The only bad thing we can tell is, that we spent just 2 nights there. What's really a shame! If we had knew before, what an amazing place it is, we had spent more time there! Now we have to come back ;) To mention all the things we loved about the place there are not enough words left, but there are still Deni and Jiarra... Deni is Kerri-Leas adorable daughter who made her mom serious competition in being the most kindest host, and Jiarra, the loveliest Staffie on planet earth! However, to summarize our experiences and impressions just two words: JUST AWESOME! Thanks Kerri-Lea, thanks Deni, thanks Jiarra for having us(URL HIDDEN)

‘It was our pleasure staying at the Gold Coast Hinterland Villa . The house was luxurious and very comfortable for all six of us and the patio with the pool overlooking the mountain views are very soothing. The fantastic patio with its dinning table, sofas, bar and barbecue grill made a big difference morning and night. It was almost like having our private balcony to an incredible landscape although at times we shared it with visitors from the next door guesthouse. Kerri-Lea is very helpful and communication ran smoothly, and most importantly, she was super friendly! I highly recommend her as a hostesses and would gladly visit her again.’

We stayed for 3 nights as a group of 10 and we had a very enjoyable stay. The facilities were excellent, especially the outdoor area, we all loved it. The house is surrounded by beautiful hills, highly recommended if you are looking for something a little different to the typical high rise apartments found along the coast.

Kerri-Lea is a wonderful and generous host with an absolutely amazing property. I am so glad we got to stay here and meet Kerri-Lea and her family. Perfect If I were travelling to the gold coast I would not stay elsewhere given the choice. Cheers, Brent

The best host a guest could ask for! A+++

The host she is really nice, as soon as she got my booking and got reply me within one hour, she made her promise on the website are all 100%. The house is massive, it's magnificent, no matter from the front pool, private chill zone, spa, mountain view, or cool fresh back yard are more beautiful than the pics. Price is really worth it. The best place for a relax vocation.

We loved our stay was very relaxing we had everything we needed. The kids had a great time, we will book again.... We didn't want to leave !!

Lovely stay at Vinh and Stuart, we enjoyed the room and it was an excellent location. You can walk to circular quay in 45 minutes from the house.

We had a great time in Sydney, staying in this convenient location. We could walk into the city, catch public transport close by as well as enjoy the local cafes and restaurants.

Stuart and Vinh were very responsive and easy to communicate with. Check in and out were super convenient and the location was superb! Would definitely recommend a stay here

Ditto everything that has been said here about Vinh and Stuart (and of course Kenji, the best behaved Pom I have every met). They are the consummate hosts and they have a stellar location for exploring Sydney. We shared two fun evening dinners together. The experience was exactly what I was hoping for when I signed up for AirBnB-- truly traveling like a human with all of the personal contact and comfort that implies. I can only hope that the next time my travels take to me Sydney, Vinh and Stuart are still listing their room! Thank you guys, it was a wonderful experience.

Vinh and Stuart are very good hosts, very nice house, nice breakfast and a very good location. Lovely dog (Kenji). They gave me some nice tips about where to go and whats going on in the area. Can really recommend this place for a quick stop over in Sydney. Kristina

Vinh and Stuart gave us a great welcome and talked us through everything we needed to know. They also pulled out all the stops to give us the attic room for one night when we contacted them to ask if we could start our stay a day earlier than originally planned. The house is in an amazing position and it really lifted the spirits being able to eat breakfast overlooking Sydney Harbour! Just a short walk away were some good eateries, the Star Casino & food mall, and the Light Railway connecting us to the city. A fabulous place!

Vinh and Stuart were very friendly and welcoming and I had a really nice stay at their place. The house is comfortable and well situated in a nice suburb and in walking distance to the main spots in the city. Would definitely recommend them to friends :-)

We had a great stay in the fabulous apartament of Vinh and Stuart. Both of them are very friendly and helpful. The apartment is very clean and the bed comfortable. The light rail is just a couple of walking minutes away. The Darling Harbour is ca 15 minutes away. All in all we had a great time in Sydney with special thanks to Vinh and Stuart. We can definitely recommend these hosts!

My husband and I had a great visit in Valparaiso. We stayed 2 nights at the Suite Mirador. Nina, the person in charge of most of the operation, provided easy instructions for taking public transportation all over the city and gave us good advice about sites and restaurants. She also fixed awesome breakfasts for us every morning! She was super nice and did everything she could to make our stay comfortable. We had the top section of the house all to ourselves. It was clean, cozy, and decorated very interestingly, pretty much as depicted in the pictures, and the view out the window was spectacular! Communication with Oliver was no problem as he was quick to respond and very helpful with our questions. His family is very polite and pretty much keep to themselves. All in all, a positive experience!

A stunning room with its own terrace and a gorgeous view. The house is old but charming and so are the hosts. Very helpful too.

We had a great stay here, with easy access to town and gorgeous hosts. We'd happily return.

I would like to say thank you to all Mirador's family for this two days, the place is great very comfortable and a delicious breakfast :) The place is easy access with a lot of bus lines. Great place to stay

A beautiful place to stay in Valparaiso. Not the most convenient to the middle of town but worth the short (and cheap) trip in a collectivo. We were served a wonderful breakfast each morning by the owner's mother-in-law. Very private set up in the top floor of a beautiful home with great views of the harbor and city.

We had a wonderful stay at Suite Mirador. The house is beautiful, especially the suite upstairs -- the views were incredible, day and night! Lina was so kind and helpful, she even drew us a map by hand and gave us advice on how to get around the city and sights to see. She brought us a lovely breakfast and even helped us practice our Spanish. Her daughter Pilar was also wonderful and gave us excellent restaurant recommendations. We only wish we could have stayed longer!

We had a wonderful stay at Suite Mirador! The view is truly amazing and the suite is clean and beautiful. Nina was incredibly helpful and gave us a lot of tips on what to see in Valparaiso. Overall a great experience that we recommend to anyone traveling to Valpo.

Our experience was fantastic. Oliver gave us very helpful directions to their house before we arrived and Nina was their to greet us on arrival. The suite was clean and just as the pictures show, with an incredible view of the ocean and Valparaiso. Nina was very helpful giving us directions and advising us on things to do. With our limited Spanish and her limited English we seemed to have some interesting conversations! Her breakfasts that she made us every morning were delicious! Oliver gave us some great tips with a winery tour we were looking to take in Casablanca which worked out really well. It was so helpful having local knowledge of the area. The suite is around a 10 minute walk to the central area of town and then a ride on a funicular to Cerro Conception where a lot of great restaurants and bars are. Alternatively you can get a shared taxi or 'collectivo' for around AU$1.50.

The host was welcoming and relaxed. The apartment was exactly as described, comfortable and airy. Located right in the heart of Melbourne CBD, this one might stay was memorable. Thank you!

My second time staying here and I'll be back. Excellent little nest in the heart of Melbourne. Donna was extremely welcoming. Bottle of wine on arrival, chocolates, croissants, and much more... Very romantic apartment and clean apartment. Great feel to it.

Perfect apartment in central Melbourne with everything at my finger tips. Donna provided exceptional service, from the easy communication via text message, a bottle of wine and handmade chocolates on arrival. I will be staying here again next time I visit Melbourne. Thank-you Donna!

Our stay at 115 Swanston was thoroughly enjoyable, everything was perfect! Couldn't have hoped for a better host with Donna and accommodation! I have no hesitation in wanting to go back to stay there again!

We loved our stay at Donna's apartment, which enjoys excellent views of the town hall. Access was simple and the breakfast goods provided were superb.

Donna, thank you for our enjoyable experience of staying in your lovely apartment. You made us feel very welcome on arrival and for the tour of the lane-ways. The apartment is spotless and well stocked with goodies and breakfast available, and the added special treats were wonderful. Being situated in a central location to access all ones needs were perfect for us, and what a great view of the historical town hall day and night. Thank you for being a great host Donna and we would love to stay again in the future. Warm regards, Parys and Allen

This apartment is 10/10, in terms of the apartment itself and its location. It's wonderfully centrally located right opposite the town hall so everything is within easy reach. The apartment is lovely - bright, with plenty of room for 2. It's very well stocked (not that you would consider cooking with so many excellent restaurants/cafes/bars within walking distance) and the personal touches - being met by Donna, given a warm welcome and an informed walk about the local neighborhood, the fresh flowers, bread, wine and chocolate top it off. Highly recommend, will be back.

We hardly have more accolades than the previous reviewers. Donna's always speedy communication before our arrival was most helpful. She met us on arrival and personally escorted us on a tour of the immediate neighborhood which has to be the best location in the city - can't imagine staying anywhere else! She also gave us many tips for dining. She's a delight to talk with not only about Melbourne, but also about her travels and work experiences. Practicalities: there's virtually anything you could want provided in the apartment (washer/dryer with soap, hairdryer, supplies of tea, coffee, milk, bread, butter, cereal, TV, DVD player, etc, etc). If you're a jogger, you are on the doorstep of runs along the river or in the botanic gardens or other parks. If you have a car, there is no parking in the building although we saw many car parks near by (not sure of cost) - park there and use public transport during your stay! Because of the premier location you also have the option of several modes of transportation, although you can walk to most places of interest within 15 minutes, including Southern Cross station. The Skybus hotel transfer drops you literally not more than 100m from the front door of the building which has an elevator. The apartment has a view out onto Swanston St. and the Town Hall, yet is very quiet. Our stay was a 5 star experience and if we get back to Melbourne, we will most definitely stay in the apartment again.

Great location. Lena was a kind host, easy going and friendly. Perfect for a group of 4 for our weekend getaway. There was everything you needed! My bed in the main room was super comfy too. Awesome views and decor - very inspirational! Thank you Lena for letting us stay :)

It's a great place that even makes our trip better. The location of the apartment is inside of the CBD. Public transportation is about five minutes walking and close to the free tram zone. Lena is a really nice host. Easy to chat with :) and the place just as the pics shows that full of plants and decorations. It's a lively, safe, quite and a beautiful place with awesome city view! I would recommend you to choose Lena's place as your home during your travel :)

Strategic location . Foods are everywhere . Transportation are easily accessible . Great place to stay in

Book for family trip. Everything's is fine and good just tramp far a bit for senior citizen.. Near china town.

Great location, close to the city. Appreciated the 2 toilets for privacy. Our guest from Japan appreciated the city views from the balcony. There is No TV which suited us fine. Lena was on time for check in and was more than helpful. Building security is very good.

Lena's place is very aesthetic, just like the photos listed. Communication was very effective and she helped us with an early check in. Location is great, just a walking distance to QV. Thank you Lena!

Wonderful setting, great location, fantastic view and helpful, pleasant hosts! Couldn't ask for a better experience.

Lena was responsive and flexible in catering to our needs. The apartment itself is clean and exactly as shown in the pictures. We really enjoyed our stay - thanks Lena!

Nina's lovely comfortable apartment is in a great location in central Melbourne. The bed is very comfortable, and the kitchen has everything needed to cook a meal if desired. Overall, very clean and comfortable.

Great location, easy to walk to shops and food

Nina's place is beautifully set up and the facilities of the property are world class. I will definitely stay again

Great host, great apartment. She let us check out late after we slept in. The beds and bedding were so comfortable! Great little kitchen. Everything you need. The view from the roof top is amazing!

Nina's apartment is compact and lovely. It has everything you need. Top location.

Apartment very comfortable, supplies are complete

Nina was a very accommodating host and her apartment was comfortable and well equipped. The apartment was nice and light and the shared area on the top floor had a beautiful view of the city. Nina was flexible about checking us in and out and willing to help with information on luggage storage options in the city. We really enjoyed our stay.

Nina's apartment is really lovely, decorated really nicely, with many little extras too. In the main the bed is so comfortable! Nina communicates really well and is very accommodating. A highly recommend this experience.....

Excellent location in Fitzroy -everything on your door step! You dont need to look any further-just book this apt!!

Kate and Has have the cutest apartment, we've thoroughly enjoyed our stays there. The apartment is in a great location with the tram stopping just outside. Will definitely stay there again! Thank you :)

We thought the apartment was cute and cosy for the 2 nights we stayed but maybe a bit small for a long stay. It's close to the trams and the area is vibrant with local shops, cafes, bars and restaurants. We really enjoyed our stay. Kate & Has use a agency who were very helpful, friendly & informative. Would book again.

Bright and sunny, comfy space. Very well-equipped. Nice notebook of information awaiting your arrival.

This is a small apartment in the heart of Fitzroy, suitable for anyone that wants to be close to the action. We found the apartment warm and comfortable, and communication pre-arrival to be excellent. Suitable for couples or solo visitors.

Kate and Has' apartment was in a perfect location for us - so close to all the great bars, cafes and shops in the Fitzroy area. The apartment was a perfect size for us and the design of the apartment was a great combination of cool + cosy. The bed was large and comfortable and Kate communicated quickly and courteously with me both before and during our stay. NB - there is no hairdryer. Highly recommended apartment and hosts.

Absolutely brilliant apartment in the best position for Fitzroy shopping & eating. Thankyou Kate & Has for your beautiful space, in a quiet leafy street just off buzzing Gertrude St, with a great collection of design books! Literally a stones throw from the best coffee at De Clieu, walking distance from great eating, shopping and galleries. As a solo female traveller I felt totally secure in this apartment, part of a small complex. Bright & airy, I felt at home, and Kate & Has were always very easy to contact if I needed anything or any info. Looking forward to staying here again on my next Melbourne adventure!

We only had a couple of days in Melbourne and we couldn't have asked for a better place to stay. Not only was the location perfect, so was the apartment as it had everything we needed. Kate and Has made us feel welcome right from the start. If we are lucky enough to visit this beautiful city again we wouldn't hesitate to book this lovely bright apartment for the second time.

Great location, very helpful host and nice interior and comfortable house

The Apartment has an amazing fit out and a general good vibe. Literally in the centre of the city it was a great setup for a weekend getaway in CBD Melbourne. Couldn't recommend any higher.

A very unique experience that everybody should try. Loved my stay!

There was nothing to be upright and in trouble about correspondence of a wide room and a kind host during a stay. There is also a store in the distance to which you can walk around here from the tram station, and a place is a very convenient place. A host applied a trivial thing to intention and answered wonderfully. A stay in Melbourne was something more wonderful. 私達は日本人で、英語に自信もありませんでしたが、ホストの素晴らしい対応のおかげで困ることはありませんでした。アパートは便利な場所に位置しており、快適で楽しい旅になりました。

Just incredible!!!

Do you want to feel like Tarzan and Jane? Now you can. 10/10.

Fascinating place right in the centre of the CBD close to everything. The decor is playful and clever. If you have a preteen child they would seriously think they have stepped into a magical wonderland. Nice touches with fresh milk, coffee, tea, biscuits and other items. The accommodation is spotless and communication excellent. Definitely recommend.

I really enjoyed my stay at this unique apartment! Easy to arrange my check-in, very helpful with getting settled and check-out was simple. Very unique and cool place to stay for a few days in Melbourne!

The flat was great. Right in the centre of Melbourne and it was really well furnished. Charlee is a lovely host!

Not only are you in for an amazing treat of an Airbnb, but the home has so many personal touches that help you settle in straight away. Charlee is extremely thoughtful with a detailed self-created bible to Melbourne, coffee and milk ready, phone chargers ready for use, and even makeup/cleansers for use (especially perfect for forgetful people like myself)! These little things really add to the entire experience, and I can say with confidence that it was one of the best Airbnb stays I've had thus far :)

Charlee was an excellent host! I was running behind on both my arrival and departure to Melbourne and both times she was super flexible and non fuss about it. Great little flat in a super central location. Bright, airy and clean. Would definitely return!

Charlee was an excellent host and provided all the amenities we needed for a comfortable stay in Melbourne. The apartment is located in a convenient spot in the CBD, offering a nice view of the State Library and easy access for exploring the city. Check In/Check Out was simple and Charlee always responded quickly to all communications. She also has a great eye for decorating, as you can see in the pictures :). Overall A++ Airbnb and would definitely stay again next time I visit Melbourne!

I had a great stay here, everything was as shown in the pictures and was really easy to find. Would definitely recommend staying here

Our stay in Charlees apartment was perfect! The apartment is very central and everything is easily within walking distance. It's very clean and it's so comfy furnished. You feel like being home. :) It was one of the best airbnb stays ever !! We would book Charlees apartment every time again! :)

If you're looking for a great launch pad in Melbourne CBD - this is the spot for you! Charles's place is cozy and has everything you need for your Melbourne stay. We loved the location, the views and the comfy bed!

Charles was super organised so getting checked in was a breeZe. The location overlooks the library and is adjacent to public transport so an awesome inner city spot to stay.

Kenneth's apartment was compact and gorgeous apartment. A beautiful location .... with a breathtaking view of city skyline by night. Attention to detail was brilliant and we felt spoilt yet right at home. Brilliant. It will be our place of choice each time we visit the city Bianca and Phillip

We had an excellent experience at Kenneth's apartment! The location was really great, very close to trams. If you're active and prefer to walk, only 10-15 mins walking distance to city's hub. The bed was comfy, amenities modern, everything's spotless! One of the greatest features that I love the apartment is the cute garden balcony, it was so nice to drink my morning coffee there and had a great view of the city! Kenneth was also very informative and provided a very flexible check out time! Highly recommend!

Solid location. Close to major attractions.

Such good value for money ! Super cute easy place to stay. Cafe over the road had good coffee. Host was always quick to reply. Thank you for letting us stay!

Kenneth was very responsive and the stay was wonderful. Would recommend highly ☺

Perfect Melbourne central location! :) We were able to walk everywhere. Small apartment but very good use of space and very comfortable, it was perfect for a weekend away!

Nice place with everything you need. Very central and with a good view. Cheers !

Kenneth's place is in an ideal location with access to public transport, near to famous cafes and shopping area. The apartment is clean and tidy, with everything you may need while staying in Melbourne. The balcony with superb view is great for chilling. Had a very smooth and comfortable stay at his place. This is a great place to stay!

Absolutely everything about both Nat and her apartment was fantastic from start to finish. The apartment was exactly as described and in a great location. Perfect for two couples ... Communication with Nat was great - she got in contact straight away (always a relief) and some really great suggestions for nearby bars, restaurants and local events. Somewhere we'll definitely look to come back to when we are next in Melbourne!

Natalie is such a wonderful host. Made us felt so welcomed despite checking in earlier with the bags. Apartment is nice & clean. Rooftop view is so beautiful esp at night. Location cant be any better-tram stop is just in front at the doorstep within the free tram zone while train station is a stone throw away. Had a lovely stay for 8 nights & wld definitely recommend friends to stay here.

Natalie's apartment is perfect! Best location to see all the main sights, great restaurants and be in the heart of the CBD. The apartment itself is totally clean, compact, beautiful and has all the amenities you need. Also an added bonus is Natalie herself, always helpful and attentive to any questions or suggestions to make your stay as good as possible.

Natalie was super friendly and welcoming, going out of her way to help me find her apartment and meeting me and my family upon arrival. This apartment was exactly what we were looking for, right in the heart of Melbourne. I loved the style of the apartment and all the gorgeous art on the walls. Thanks Natalie for a memorable Melbourne experience for me and my family. We'll be back!

Great experience end to end. Communication was excellent from the moment we booked. Once we arrived our host Natalie gave us a quick tour of the surrounding area and gave us tips on how to get everywhere we wanted to get to. The apartment is comfortable and really well decorated. It has everything you could need. The location is perfect, walking distance to all the main attractions with some of the best restaurants and bars less then 5 minutes away like Chin Chin and Golden State Hotel. Naturally, being in such a good location means you do get a little bit of street noise on a Saturday night that can be heard from one of the bedrooms. All in all we loved staying here.

It was our annual pilgrimage to the Australian Tennis Open and we stayed at Natalie's apartment for 11 nights. We were really late getting there and didn't arrive to around midnight and Natalie was so great to wait for us. Everything was perfect and it suited our purpose for being in Melbourne. The walk to Melboourne Park was about 10 minutes, the closest we have ever been before. I look forward to returning next year!!

Central, well appointed, close to all the good things! Great attentive host.

Our stay at the Laneway Art Apartment was perfect! Natalie is indeed a Superhost - very welcoming, friendly, and always checking on us to make sure that we are settling in well and if we need any help. The apartment is true to pictures, very clean, and well equipped. Beds are really comfortable, slept incredibly well throughout the stay. Location is awesome with bars, restaurants, convenience stores all around, and public transport right outside. We loved the entire stay, and highly recommend it to anyone! Definitely looking forward to be back. Thank you for looking after us, Natalie! :)

Staying in Jenny's incredible apartment absolutely made my stay in Melbourne. From the prompt and polite interactions prior to my stay, to the lovely Cheryl who warmly welcomed me to the apartment, this Airbnb truly is 5 star. Even though you are staying quite literally as central as you could get, there is minimal noise and it feels relaxed, warm, inviting and the apartment is spotless. And the views!!! Wow. I'll definitely be staying here again next time I'm in Melbourne! I cannot recommend it highly enough. Thanks Jenny and Cheryl!

Jennifer's apartment is gorgeous and she made sure it was welcoming when I arrived. Jennifer went out of her way to set a time that worked for both of us to pickup the key. The apartment contained small helpful things like umbrellas and tea/coffee which are often absent in airbnb accommodations. I would love to stay again!

Jennifer's apartment is the best urban AirBnb we have stayed in to date. The fantastic CBD location combined with Jennifer's tasteful Parisian decor will set you up for feeling like Melbourne is Australia's City of Lights. The views of Parliament and local rooftop bars imbue the apartment with an incredible sense of place; what a joy to wake up in the middle of the night for a bathroom run to find Parliament illuminated out the bedroom window! Jennifer was easy to work with and made us feel right at home. She lives in the building (in another unit) and is easily accessible.

Absolute position A in the city. Great restaurants 10metres from front door, ultra cool wine bar in Punch Lane only 50metres from door and Paris End only one block away. Perfect apartment for couples. We will be back.

Host was very welcoming although we did need to wait. Great to drop off our bags early morning

Jennifer is a great host. Despite not being around to host us personally she arrange help Cheryl to welcome us and show us around (both the apartment and e trams aroun). The apartment is great and so is the location. We enjoyed our stay, and sadly is too short.

Fantastic apartment not just aesthetically but in terms of location. Eateries, shops, trams, bookstores and redspot car rental are so close by. Loved how cosy, comfortable and beautiful the apartment is, making us feel right at home in melbourne city. Also the little sweet touches including the wonderful collection of books and CDs, milk in fridge. We also had amazing vietnamese-style tapas at rice paper scissors just downstairs. And thanks Cheryl & Jen for being excellent hosts, with great tips for day trips. Lovely, lovely place!

Apartment was fantastic location close to great shops, bars and restaurants. Apartment was great size and very comfortable.

I booked on behalf on my parents visiting from the UK, and the apartment was absolutely perfect for them. It was a great base for exploring Melbourne, right in the heart of everything but a little sanctuary in itself. Beautifully decorated, plenty of information available for newbies to Melbourne and comfy enough to call home! I came for at least a cup of tea each day, and loved the place just as much as they did. Thanks Katherine for taking care of us and communicating so easily. Would thoroughly recommend.

Katherine was very helpful, filled with lots of local knowledge and enthusiasm to ensure we got the most out of our stay in Melbourne. She even marked out and provided different adventure maps. Thank you again!

The apartment was great! Clean, neat, comfortable and everything was brand new. The location could not have been better, basically at the top of China town, within walking distance to everything, including the best dumplings we've ever had. The hosts were super helpful and easy to communicate with. We had a great time and will definitely recommend this listing to friends and family. Thanks Cara and Greg!

The location was perfect for us, very easy to access transport and cafe's. The unit was beautiful and funky, very well equipped with all we needed to eat in as well. Decor is beautiful. We were made very welcome and all our needs were accommodated. Response time from Cara was quick and the whole experience was easy and very pleasant. Thanks to Katherine for all her amazing organisation and follow up. Cheers, Robyn Simpson

This apartment was perfect for our recent week long getaway. It was well appointed, clean and comfortable, perfectly located in the city for getting around either on foot or by the excellent public transport in Melbourne. Katherine who manages the apartment on behalf of Cara and Greg was so friendly, helpful and happy to provide suggestions as to entertainment, night life and where to eat. There are so many excellent options in the area and many are just a hop skip or a jump from the apartment itself.

Thank you so much Cara. We had a wonderful time and can't wait to stay here again. There are some hidden gems right near the apartment that we didn't need to venture very far for an awesome few nights. Love the decor - would recommend and would stay again! Thanks again, Shally

A truly fantastic apartment for a weekend (or week or month) in the City. The location is superb, being able to walk to a huge number of delicious cafes and restaurants is fabulous, too many to sample, ensuring a return visit! The apartment is warm, inviting and full of all the comforts of home, including all the kitchen appliances needed to be self-contained. Being within walking distance to fabulous shopping, theatres and sights, is such an asset. As the apartment is also on the doorstop of the free tram it means it is easy to visit many galleries and museums, as well as the Arts Centre, where we saw a show. A gorgeous retreat that feels like a home away from home, just better.

Great apartment in a fabulous location in Melbourne city. Tram stop at your doorstep or a short walk into the main shopping, eating areas of the city. Clean, cozy and very cheerful place to call home during our stay. The apartment was kitted out with everything you need and more. Easy to locate and host is happy to help if you have any queries. Highly recommend this little gem.

It was a large, well-proportioned room, handsomely fitted up.The hosts even prepared candles,CD player ,adapter for (URL HIDDEN) a pity that we just stayed for a couple of hours ,I hope we can spend more time in the house when I come to Sydney next time.

I was lucky enough to stay in this unit; as I am frequently in Sydney, I guess I have a good benchmark on what the local market looks like. Location wise, it's where I'd want to be and would recommend; close to transportation (central station is walkable), the CBD, Surrey Hills gastronomic hot spot... The thing is, this unit is special as in a quiet street and has this cosiness and unique charm essence to it, it really stands out for its interior. All appliances one would expect were available and well functioning. Despite a severe heat wave during my stay, the flat remained rather cool I didn't even need the aircon on for sleeping. Personally I hope to be staying in the unit again and use it as a base when in Sydney for some duration, it is just perfect for a single or couple.

Thanks Noa for being such a flexible and communicative host. Despite not seeing Noa, she was very helpful and made checking in a breeze. The place is unique, clean and the bed is too comfy. Could sleep in it all day. the place is a dream home to me filled with unique decor pieces, books and even tea provided. We will definitely be back!

Perfect, easy, comfortable.

Great location and perfect little place, Noa is a great host and I would highly recommend this property

Noa is an amazing host, she provided us great advices. The place is absolutely amazing: we loved the modern and zen decoration, all the details, romantic vibes. It's really easy to walk in the center of Sydney, only 7m walk from the Central Station. The area is really cool, trendy with cafés and restaurants, shops... we definitely recommend this place and hope to come back soon!

Very satisfied with my stay,I received a warm welcome and Noa kept in touch to make sure things were going ok.Lovely apartment and location.There is plenty to see in Surry hills and great transport links to the city or beautiful beaches.

Great location- super close to city and excellent restaurants. Studio is beautifully designed and decorated. Noa is a great host, very accommodating. We would love to stay here again next time we visit Sydney.

Wrapping up a 3-month overseas business trip with a 3:30am wake-up call for a flight from Cairns to Sydney, we were thrilled to be treated to a warm and welcoming place to unwind and catch up - Dean and Bron's gorgeous place in Surry Hills. Prior to arrival Dean emailed us with airport distance/taxi information and we found that very helpful. We were greeted by Bron (and the fab scents of her candles) and felt right at home. We were made welcome to coffee, tea, wine, and wonderful company throughout our stay. Shone to our room, we deposited our bags and headed out to see the neighborhood. And what a neighborhood, beautiful wrought-iron balconied rowhouses that one might only dream of seeing inside. There was so much to do, see, and eat in walking distance - including the Bourke Street Bakery (don't miss the almond praline croissant!). Dean and Bron were spot on with recommendations and directions. Back home for the evening, the room was perfect with a small balcony, comfortable bed, mirrored dresser, fresh towels, and a beautiful bathroom just across the hall. The toiletries - shampoo, conditioner, body wash - were sensational, a special, thoughtful touch. Dean was generous with his wi-fi code and we checked email using his smoking hot network. We highly recommend a stay with Dean and Bron at their amazing Surry Hills home. Why: * fast replies and complete, valuable communication *beautiful, upscale home and welcoming environment * hip, safe, walkable neighborhood plus walking distance to the CBD or public transportation * "locals only" insight on what to see, where to eat, how to get around * one of Bron's scent-sational travel candles as a welcome gift Looking for a place to stay in the stylish Surry Hills neighborhood? Don't pass on a visit to Dean and Bron's.

Dean & Bron's place is really cool and they are so nice people. They offered me very useful advice for local traffic and nice food and restaurants. Love their adorable dogs and pets. Neighbors are kind and surry hills is a beautiful suburb close to everything. Really enjoyed my stay with them.

We felt immediately at home upon entering Dean and Bron's beautiful home. Everything from a cup of hot tea to their son's kindness in carrying our luggage to our room made it feel more like we were at a good friend's home, rather than someone we had just met. The accommodations were exactly as we expected, the house being decorated with Bron's flair for artistic expression. George and Silbey were two of the most chill dogs ever. Dean and Bron had fantastic recommendations for activities and restaurants and the neighborhood is charming, unique, and very walkable. We didn't have a car and we didn't need one. Highly recommended!

Great place to stay, centrally located in inner city but v quite with excellent cafés close by. We could walk to Circular Quay in half an hour! Bron & Dean we're v welcoming & we're happy to share the world cup quarter final game @ 6am. Bedroom was perfect, with balcony & own bathroom. Our only comment would be the double bed, was very comfy but a bit too short for my 6ft husband. Otherwise a great experience for our first Airbnb.

I enjoyed my stay in this beautiful house. Dean and his son are friendly and gave us some good advice during our stay.

The reservation was canceled 59 days before arrival. This is an automated posting.

Dean & Bron's place was great. I stayed there for a week and Bron, her son, and their dogs made me feel very welcome. The house is very well decorated, location is amazing for exploring Surry Hills, and the street is very quiet. Would recommend staying here.

I was just back from Vietnam with my apartment airbnb'd until the next day, when my guests departed. So although a short stay, it was just what a jet lagged traveler needed, chilled, comfy, welcoming. Even the cats & dogs were totally laid back. If you're fortunate enough to book this central Sydney pad, you'll love it! I'll be recommending Bron & Dean's pad to friends. Happy New Year guys & thanks for the lovely homemade candle :)

We had a thoroughly enjoyable stay, the apartment was exactly what we needed, clean, stylish, great location, and with a perfect host! Communication was excellent and everything went very smoothly. Highly recommend!

This is a lovely, well fitted out apartment over two floors in a block that's in a quiet neighbourhood, 10 minutes walk from Sydney's central station. Thais, our host, was delightful, giving us a thorough guide to the area and providing us with a range of basic groceries on our arrival. She checked with us that all was well after a day or so but otherwise kept out of our way. We would have no hesitation in recommending the apartment as a place for a couple to stay for up to a week, as we did, or longer.

The host has great attention to details and very responsible. We had a great experience. Highly recommended.

Its very convenient, close to city center and shopping mall and foodie area but also quite where the apartment is located. Clean and cozy with everything u will need. I had a very happy stay there

The host is super nice and friendly!! The home itself is just like how it was shown in the photos! Well-equipped, spacious and clean!!! It's quite near to Central/Redfran station, around 10-15minutes walk. Just that there were robberies happened nearby the building and in one of the buildings in the last month(as written in the notice posted at the entrance), which makes me a bit concerned. But in general it's still okay, as you can take Uber when you go back late! Not expensive, around 8-12 aud from anywhere nearby the city! All in all, it's a GREAT STAY!

Such a homely and warm place! We very enjoyed our stay at Thais's place! The room is spacious, clean and tidy and the bed was comfy. We stayed for 5 nights and had no issues with noise. In a quiet area but really close to the downtown area, and easy to access the surrounding attractions in 30 minutes. Highly recommended! :)

Great location. Bus stop is out the door around the corner and the train station is 12mins walk up the road. Super central but quiet and tucked away too.

Fantastic location, wonderful apartment space. Very comfortable and a great host. Easy walk to city and surrounding areas. Loved my stay here.

Fantastic experience. The apartment is located on an awesome spot close to public transport and also walking distance to major places of interest. The apartment and the room for guests is exactly as pictured and depicted in Reid's ad and was always clean and tidy. Reid was a really welcoming host and made me feel at home. Has a great sense of humour and is really friendly. I would definitely book there again Thanks again Reid

From the moment I first contacted Reid, to the moment I checked out, it was truly superb. The space is a reflection of the man; well positioned, brilliantly clean, keenly elegant and just downright welcoming! So much thought and care has gone into every aspect and this is evidenced throughout. The only unfortunate part of my stay was that I had such as busy schedule as this precluded me from spending more quality time with both the man and the apartment ;) Absolute 5 star rating!!

Reid was very friendly and hospitable. He made sure that my arrival was flawless (from getting the key to settling in). The listing (the location, common room, bathroom, and my room) was very accurate according to the information and photos posted here. The unit was located more or less on the second floor after climbing up few stairs. Might be challenging if you have many (big) luggages because it has no elevator, but totally worth it. The unit was clean and homey with nice view from the balcony, in a great location (about 1min walk to Hyde Park and 2min walk to the beginning of Oxford St). The area was so quiet and peaceful although it was located very central. One amazing thing that I found was the guest information folder that has Reid's floor plan and description, as well as clippings and maps related to travel and tourism in Sydney. Very informative and useful for many. Equipped with speedy wifi, coffee and tea were provided, including the amenities such as shower gel, shampoo, and other stuffs just like in hotels (even better). Hot shower worked well and fast (if you are being particular about this as some people do). Bed was very comfy and I could sleep well. No AC inside the bedroom but that was not a problem at all since the fan was enough to make the room breezy and cool. Another highlight was there was a roomy space in the wardrobe dedicated to put your stuffs. I found that staying with Reid in his place was more than just the listing itself. His friendliness and great hospitality were more valuable and important additions to his lovely place. We had a great conversation, sharing thoughts and laughter, even in such a short time (mostly after 9pm when we both were at home). Great personality, respectful, and always stay true to himself. I admired his determination for work, as well as for his personal being (living healthy, eating healthy, etc). Something that I learned from him. Thank you so much for everything. This place is highly recommended for anyone who wants to stay in Sydney city center, not only because of the lovely place, but also the lovely host.

Reid, it was a pleasure staying with you, thank you very much for your hospitality! Your apartment is in a perfect spot making it an ideal place for exploring Sydney. Kind regards, Edwin

Reid's place is fantastic! Exactly as pictured, the apartment is within minutes of public transit and tourist attractions. Reid also had great advice on the neighborhood and a wide selection of tourist guides and maps for reference. Favorite part of my stay was walking down to the neighborhood cafes a few blocks from the apartment. This was a wonderful first AirBnB stay - Reid is a great host!

Reid's apartment is ideally located with all Sydney touristic attractions at a walking distance as well as great cafés, restaurants and shops in the lively Darlinghurst/Surry Hills neighbourhoods. Reid is very welcoming and happy to share good addresses. Highly recommend if you're travelling solo and want to make the most of Sydney in a nice, clean and friendly environment. Reid is a busy person so he's always in and out (for those who need more privacy) but equally a great host.

Great location to explore city...flat is super clean and modern...Reid was totally accommodating and helpful as host...highly recommend

Reid was a perfect and welcoming host. He was very nice in providing me with maps and other materials in order for me to enjoy the best of Sydney. The room itself is nicely decorated and does look like exactly what is shown in the pics. The apartment is cozy and the location is great, very close to metro/train station Museum and the best spots in town. Recommended!

Mel is very easy going and organized. Lots of little extras such as bread and spreads for breakfast, tea and coffee, shower items and moisturizer and mosquito repellant etc

Mel's place is exactly like the pictures. Open, light, and spacious. Perfect location with respect to the Redfern train station, door to 'door' it takes 20 minutes to get to Circular Quay. Mel is a perfect host, and her dog Harry is adorable :) We would definitely stay again.

Mel is a great host. She's very easy going and so laid back. Her room is bright and lots of natural light. Harry her labradoodle) was so sweet. Harry greeted me with one big woof and she is friendly. Like what Mek said, Harry wouldn't even hurt a fly. Staying with Mel is a great experience with lots of flexibility. Mel is radiating like a sunny day on the beautiful Australian weather. I love her photos. She's a very talented photographer. The location is very strategic and a stone throw from the bus stop and public transportation. It's close to everything. Will definitely stay with Mel again when I come back to Sydney.

Mel was a fantastic host, she was up to meet me even though my check-in was quite late and so lovely to talk too! Her adorable and very well trained dog Harry was also there to gave me a very warm welcome :) The offer of a cup of tea , warm shower, lovely clean home and very comfortable bed were just what I needed after a big day of travelling. Mel also gave me great directions and recommendations, don't even bother checking (SENSITIVE CONTENTS HIDDEN), just ask Mel! All in all a great stay, would definitely stay again if I'm back in Sydney!

I had a good time at Mel's home. She was always very helpful. The dog of her, Harry, was also cute! The house was such nice with great arts, a terrace and a comfortable living room. I had everything that I needed in my room and the bed was very comfortable, too. In addition it's just a few minutes with the bus to the Hyde Park (to the city). There is a supermarket (5 minutes away), a park and a swimming pool in the neighbourhood. So the location is absolutely perfect!

Mel was helpful, warm and welcoming, even before I arrived. Her place is attractive. I loved the old features and the warmth of the timber in the bedroom. Mel went out of her way to make my stay enjoyable.

Had a short stay with Mel and Harry but made to feel very welcome and had a lovely time in the Redfern/Surry Hills area. Close to transport links, lots of nice cafes/restaurants within walking distance, and a nice spacious bedroom to come back to. Shared bathroom but never felt like we were intruding. Mel was lovely and inviting and Harry was very friendly too.

I was the first visit to Sydney. And It was a good place I could relax I can use Mel's house as my home. I appreciate Mel and her boyfriend welcomed me.
