Family Christmas Getaway

The house was just beautiful, had everything we needed, plenty of space for us all. The warmth and feeling of a place makes you feel at home and this house did that for us. As for getting around Melbourne, tram and train stops were just up the road in walking distance which worked out really well. Definitely will keep in mind for when we plan to visit Melbourne again in the future.

A little GEM

This home was very convenient for us. Great access to the train and tram. The beds were comfortable. Heating made the home comfortable. Whilst located on a busy road the noice transfer was minimal. The kitchen was well appointed and catered to our needs. We would definitely stay here again.

Generally satisfied

Property is located next to very busy road so front bedroom occupants will be affected. Location is perfect for transport links however if you prefer to walk, there are no restaurants or bars close by. Good size property best suited to families. Cleaning needs to be improved but mostly around dusting. Mel the host was easy to contact and was very accommodating.

Great Little Hideaway

Mooranda was a lovely surprise. Tucked away in Parkville right on the tram line and at a busy intersection, the house was remarkably quiet and had everything that you might need for a short stay in busy Melbourne. Parklands, a small supermarket with liquor shop were close by so that you could stay in or catch the tram into the city and dine out accordingly. Most certainly I would stay here again.

Good value Melbourne base

Mooranda served us very well as a base in Melbourne for a few days. Mel the property owner was very responsive to any queries we had. The house was comfortable although a little tired and even though it is on a main road the noise was barely audible from the house. It was very convenient for getting the tram into town. Overall a very good value stay.

Great location, good for young families

Great location with trams on your doorstep and zoo in a 15 minute walk. House is located on a very busy street so parking is around the corner, including Ubers-not a big deal though. The end bedroom is just a sliding door off the kitchen/dining room so not overly private or quiet. House could do with a good deep clean but rough enough Nice outdoor area unfortunately not utilised to its full potential as outdoor seating is old and uncomfortable. Overall would recommend to stay if your looking for something easy and accessible

Cozy and close to everything

Thanks to Mel for a very efficient, easy process from first enquiry to check out. We loved having a space to relax in or lock and leave for the day. Maroonda is a beautifully appointed home near the city centre with excellent access to trams, trains, groceries, Royal Park, and on the right side of the city for trips out to the Yarra Valley.

Moorlanda house of refuge.

Moorlanda house was a place of refuge for us during this unprecedented time of the “virus”. We felt so comfortable and safe and so much at home during the 25 day stay. The 3 bedroom unit is roomy giving the occupants each their own space. Our 2 1/2 year old grandson loved his Australian “home” as the long hallway gave him long roads to drive his vehicles on. The access to public transport was a 5 min walk then into the CBD in 15 min. We were next to a large park through which it was a 20 walk to the Melbourne zoo. Our hosts were most welcoming and filled any requests within a few hours. It was a 5 star accommodation!
