Summary:
This stylish & chic centrally-located apartment is a very short walk from the beach & even closer to the vibrant heart of St Kilda with all its shops, restaurants and amenities. Sleeping up to 4 with configurable bed options of 1 king bed & 2 singles or 2 king beds, this is a great choice for a couples break away, traveling with your kids, or for those that just want a little more space. Professionally managed, you're in safe hands.
The Space:
Located on the ground floor of an older-style small apartment block of 4 apartments, your apartment has an open plan living/dining/kitchen area with plenty of room to relax and unwind or cook up a storm in the large kitchen.
The apartment comes with a combination washing machine/dryer for those needing to do laundry during their stay. A clothes rack is also provided for drying which can be placed in the apartment or on the back patio which has outdoor and covered areas.
Unusually for the area, this apartment comes with multiple bed cofiguration options. The main bedroom is a king bed only but the second bedroom can be supplied to guests as a second kind bed or two single beds. Not many apartments have this kind of flexibility. Please be aware though that for bookings made at short notice we may not be able to change the already-prepared bed configuration - if a certain configuration is important to your last minute stay, please send an enquiry rather than booking.
Off the second bedroom, you'll find a private and spacious back patio where you can enjoy the summer weather with late, light nights.
The bathroom features a walk in rainfall-type shower with additional seperate handheld shower head. Guests should note due to the design of the shower it is only suitable for a maximum height of 6 feet/183cm without having to bend. The toilet is located in its own seperate internal room.
We're a kind, honest, hard-working team that genuinely wants to deliver 5 star guest stays. During your stay please reach out if we can help you in any way; we can only help if we know and we're dedicated to making your visit a happy one. This property is managed professionally by Holiday Rentals Australia so you can be assured your stay is in reliable and capable hands.
All guests are urged to read the House Rules prior to completing their booking, these can be found on the final booking page along with Airbnb's Terms and Conditions.

The Neighborhood:
Just 6km from the city centre, St Kilda is Melbourne’s seaside playground and is much-loved by residents and visitors. St Kilda is renowned for its expansive view of Port Phillip, safe sandy beach, palm-lined boardwalk, huge range of beach activities, big skies, gorgeous sunsets, parks and gardens, great restaurants, bars and cafés, fabulous old buildings, and its colourful past and present.
St Kilda is home to many of Melbourne’s famous visitor attractions including Luna Park, the Esplanade Hotel, Catani Gardens, Acland Street and Fitzroy Street. It is home to St Kilda beach, Melbourne’s most famous beach, several renowned theatres and several of Melbourne’s big events and festivals.
The main street in St Kilda is Fitzroy Street. It’s lined with outdoor pubs, cafes and restaurants serving a wide variety of cuisines showcasing Melbourne’s multicultural heritage.
The café society of Acland Street first bloomed with the influx of cosmopolitan European migrants in the 1950s. That heritage can still be seen in the European-style cake shops, cafes and designer shops that line the street.
Known as Melbourne’s beachside playground, St Kilda has long been a go-to destination for those in search of great food and drink. With so many cuisines to choose from, you’ll find every taste bud is satisfied with the array of options in this foodie paradise. Many of St Kilda’s eateries are located along Fitzroy St and Acland St, with a mix of moody wine bars, summery outdoor terraces, and fine dining restaurants, all located around Port Phillip Bay
Other Things to Note:
All the apartments we manage come with a welcome letter and detailed information so you know how everything works to ensure you can get the most out of your stay. There is also a local map with some highlights such as the local supermarket and train station plus maps of Melbourne for those not familiar with the area. All bedding and towels are included for 4 people (note one bath towel per person) as booked along with beginner basics such as tea, coffee, sugar, milk, shampoo, bodywash and toilet paper to get you through the first few days.
Prior to arrival, we ask all guests to quickly fill in some contact information and tell them a little bit more about how we hope they'll look after the apartment.
Guests are required to advise us of their chosen bed configuration for the second bedroom at the time of booking, if we do not get this information the bed will be made as a king bed. Please be advised bookings with arrival in less than 48 hours time may not be able to get their choice of bed configuration. Please message us to check if needed.
Please note as we continue to improve the property over time the furniture and furnishings may change from those shown in the photos.
