Go ahead, unplug and unwind in style. When you book one of our Melbourne holiday rentals, the ordinary is in the rearview. Instead of sharing your vacation with hundreds of hotel guests, you get to take advantage of all the space at your private apartment. You also get to enjoy all the amenities of a private residence for a truly unique and memorable stay. Why don’t you take off your shoes and settle in for a while? Your holiday just got upgraded.

Seeing all the best attractions is bound to make you fall in love with Melbourne. Who knows, you may even be tempted to extend your stay. There’s a reason home rentals are so popular here—after a long day of exploration, going back to your very own living room to stretch out is a dream come true. 

It’s your escape so why share it? You deserve your own slice of paradise. Booking your holiday rental on Expedia is simple and safe.
