Kid-friendly vacation rentals in East Melbourne

Jane’s place was excellent!! We are a family of 4 (2 adults and 2 teens) and we have been coming to Melbourne for years but this was our first time staying in Richmond. The location is brilliant, close to tram and train and Swan St is fantastic for an array of delicious cafes and restaurants. The terrace was beautifully appointed and a fabulous place to use as a base, but also to relax and unwind. We highly recommend!!

We really enjoyed our stay at The Chambers South Yarra. Location was great with restaurants and supermarket close by. It was also just a short drive to the city. The home is perfect for families. Min and Ted are amazing hosts! They are very kind and responsive and they made sure we had a pleasant stay. Highly recommend The Chambers and we look forward to staying here again when in Melbourne!

Beautiful place, very easy to check into. Bed was soo comfortable! Kitchen had everything needed to cook and bathroom was nice. Street was lively in the day but to be expected given the area but night time was nice and quiet. I wouldn't hesitate to stay again and recommend others stay as well. Thank you for a wonderful much needed Staycation.

Lovely air bnb. Justin was great with communicating and letting us extend our check out time by a couple of hours. Location was good but loud when going to sleep on weekends people walking past. Construction was happening next door which we weren’t made aware of so was loud! Workers throwing bricks and tools around.

Had a comfortable stay. Had everything we needed and was so close to some really great food/wine spots and cafes. Also very easy to get the tram into the city.

Great location, easy access to public transport and amenities. Beautifully decorated, a lovely space to escape to.

Thanks Katherine, your place was great. Perfect location and everything we needed to be comfortable. Many thanks

Fantastic place all around. it was spacious, clean and looked exactly like the photos. Location was great, almost felt like it was in the middle of nowhere with the views and distance between neighbours. The sauna was a hit - instructions were easy to follow and a great way to relax. Jay was very responsive whenever I had a question and amenities were as listed. It was overall a fantastic experience for our group!

Carla and Matt were great hosts, organising an easy check-in and making sure everything was fine. When I accidentally broke a kitchen item, my offer to replace it was rejected but a new one appeared within an hour. They were both friendly and super helpful. The apartment is comfortable and well furnished. The kitchen has everything you need and Carla left fresh milk, butter and Müsli and plenty of other supplies. We would happily return.

Me and my Partner and a wonderful time at Callum’s place, its is a beautiful apartment with an amazing outdoor seating area. There is a tram line down the street and parking was pretty easy to find. It’s in a great location and we really had no complaints in terms of our stay. Callum was super helpful and responsive and we would definitely recommend the place to anyone staying in the area :)

Lovely apartment . Very secure. Very easy access to and from train station. Close to many good restaurants and bars Small in size which is accurately described. We appreciated the flexible check in and detailed instructions. We hope to stay again in the future

We stayed at Cathie and Michael’s for three nights. The apartment is situated close to cafes, restaurants and shops, with a tram stop not too far away. The apartment was very clean and the bed was comfortable. Even though we went in winter, we still made use of the spacious verandah. It’s one of the best Airbnbs we have stayed in, we would definitely stay again.

David’s apartment was fab. I was there for 2 weeks and felt like a true local. It’s such a cool building with the large ceilings and warehouse vibe. It’s steps away from the station, right next to all the great eats of Swan st and just such a great vibe. Despite its proximity to the hustle and bustle, it’s mostly a quiet place, with the usual day-to-day sounds from the upstairs neighbours now and then. It’s an old building so it’s to be expected. It was pretty chilly weather when I stayed but the reverse cycle warmed it pretty well. Also it’s really equiped for long term stays. The washer/dryer was fab, great kitchen and Coles is 5 mins walk away so you’ve got groceries close by. Oh and Hectors Deli is 1 mins away, great for Sunday pastries and coffee! Thanks for the stay David.

This is our second stay at this Airbnb. It’s prefect for our trips to Melbourne. The location is great so easy to get around trans to the city. Great restaurants in Richmond. Definitely will book again.

Premium condo, great location to explore the city. Condo equipped with high quality everything (appliances, shower&shampoo). Perfect and accommodating host. We had a great stay and hope to return.

Perfect spot for what I needed. Is bigger than it looks in the photos. It's up on the 7th floor so has a really lovely view of the city - 2 min walk to tram and trains. Really quiet inside too (I was there when there was a concert on at Rod Laver and couldn't hear any of it once I was inside). Super clean too. I run an annual event close by which is why I booked it and wouldn't hesitate booking this again.

Loved Selina’s place! It was perfect. Great location with everything in walking distance. Perfect little home. Exactly what we thought it would be!

Kate's cosy apartment was super good. Restaurants, theaters, great shopping, transport and even parks all really close by. Really close. Great shower, comfy bed, and so many thoughtful extras that I never expected. Thanks Kate for a wonderful week.

A great stay, just on the edge of China town, the food in the area is incredible. Aside from endless food and drink the stay itself was perfect. A great space, the photos of the place honestly don’t do it justice. Having a night in the high rise with the city views is just a good time all around. Grantley, was incredibly responsive and was flexible when we needed something. We would stay here again without thought. Truly sad to have to check out! Till next time.

Excellent high quality building. Simon was wonderful to deal with. Pool on the roof was a highlight

We had a great stay. Everything was as described, very clean, we had everything we needed, the hosts were incredibly responsive and we were very comfortable.

I had a fantastic stay at Simon’s place. The apartment was incredibly cosy, spotless and had everything I needed. The location couldn’t have been better - right in the heart of Melbourne Central, making it super easy to get around and explore the city. I especially loved the access to the building’s sauna and gym, which were great extras to have. Simon was an excellent host—very responsive and helpful with any questions I had. He truly made my stay smooth and enjoyable. Highly recommend staying here!

Beautiful place with astonishing night view. There's still room for improvement on the cleanness of bedding sets.

Great apartment for a short stay in Melboure. Host was quick to respond to any questions and helpful. Supermarkets near by, close to public transport and in a nice area of Melbourne. Super comfy bed, good bathroom and enough kitchen facilities to cook a meal. I collected keys from a nearby location - easy to do, but something to note if you're arriving super early/late. Would recommend!
