Vacation rentals with outdoor seating in South Yarra

A stay in Maple Cottage feels like a warm hug. What stood out most for us was the immediate ambience of coming home, on arrival. It was very easy to relax in the comfort of this clean, cosy space, situated in a quiet neighbourhood very conveniently located to amenities. Attention to detail in the décor and the interior design skills of whoever has decorated Maple cottage, have achieved a very good balance of function, simplicity and quality in this lovely home. Thank you Nancy for your quick responses and ease of communication. I would love to stay in Maple Cottage again.

Easy, relaxed surroundings, The host was very communicative/responsive. Loved the kitchen set up. The bedrooms were spacious with good storage and hanging space. Bathroom bright modern and fresh. Thank you Tim

We stay at a lit of Airbnbs and every now and then one will stand out due to the personal touches. We had fresh fruit, 6 large double yoked eggs, bread,milk, butter and the most beautiful fresh cut flowers. The house itself is like being at home. We called it the Tardis as it looked compact from the outside but was huge inside. James was very arrentative and obviously rightly proud of the house. Thanks for a lovely stay.

A very enjoyable stay. The house was clean, comfortable, and very nicely decorated. The location is great, well within walking distance to the city and right by the South Melbourne markets. Would definitely stay again and recommend others giving it a look!

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.

Location & Comfort! If you are looking for a cosy place to relax that is close to great eateries, shopping & public transport then Paula’s place is just perfect. We stayed here for 2 nights & wouldn’t hesitate to book again. Comfy beds & couch, well equipped kitchen & beautiful big bathroom. Found a car park quite easily near the house on arrival & didn’t use the car again until we departed as everything was in walking distance. Paula was a great host - responsive, welcoming & helpful.

This gorgeous historic home is in the best location with the tram across the road, the South Melbourne markets a very short walk as well as lots of local cafes and restaurants. The house is very comfortable and homelike as well as quite spacious for a one bedroom place. There’s a full kitchen with plenty of bench space to prepare all that beautiful food from the nearby markets!

Luciana”s house is a great place to stay while in Melbourne A terrific location and very comfortable house with thoughtful and tasteful amenities Luciana is also a great host We will be back Matthew

Since I found Maggie little Gem I don't look for others Airbnb in this area because she got one of the best I've experienced in terms of location, home amenities, cleanliness, ...and this balcony view ! So thank you for always making my stay feeling that amazing

Thoroughly enjoyed our 2 week stay. It was comfortable, spacious, warm and clean. The apartment is tastefully decorated with ample seating but also lots of space for our son to play. Carpeted floors and centralised heating added to our comfort. Location super convenient, close enough to the CBD but far enough for some peace. Tony was very responsive & accommodating to our requests for 2 separate keys, an earlier check-in, & even more laundry detergent as we ran out towards the end of our stay. Pros over other BnBs in the area: dedicated study nook (which was very conducive for work), parking. Just for the sake of it, some v minor inconveniences: basic pantry but no cooking oil (easy enough to get our own), salt grinder was empty (tho did find the salt stash on our last day lol). Some surfaces (bedside tables, desk) & room carpet were a little dusty but easily fixed. Overall, LOVED our stay and really felt like a home away from home. Highly recommend and would definitely stay again!

Great location and very friendly host. Highly recommended.

Sarah’s place is a good find. Conveniently located near downtown Melbourne. She was very responsive. Incredible views of downtown Melbourne from her place. You have to pick up the key from a local grocery store (which worked fine) and there is only one key, but overall the stay was great. Excellent swimming pool and gym. Recommend staying here! Good value!

Beautiful apartment and dream worthy bedroom!

Beautiful spot with heaps of nice walks and parks surrounding the property so plenty to see and do on your stay. We had the lucky pleasure of booking during Autumn. St kilda rd is covered in beautiful autumn trees which was picturesque! Really good sound proofing for when you want to close the city out but also at a good height and cornered apartment so felt comfortable enjoying the balcony when we had a rain free moment. I had great sleeps in the comfortable beds provided. The large modern kitchens and bathrooms were appreciated and they were well kept. Cleaners do a good job! 9.7/10 would stay again and highly recommend The only negative, and I have to suggest that you should park your car out front and unload before parking in the building. The offered space is on the second floor in the basement which had no elevator, so you have to walk the length of the basement and up a ramp to the first floor basement where the lift was. This felt strenuous to us as we had to do multiple trip!

Perfect position and everything you need for a few nights away. Will be booking again

Gina was a great host, house in fantastic location,was very clean and modern, we would come back anytime

Andrew was the perfect host - he was super helpful, responsive and offered to stay up late in case I had issues getting in, given my late arrival time. Communication was great and very open to helping where possible. The apartment itself was lovely and views were fantastic being on the top floor. You could still hear a lot of the traffic and trams however so perhaps bring ear plugs if you’re a light sleeper but otherwise not a big deal, just one of the things about being in an urban area. I was there for work so was a very quick stay but it was a close walk for where I needed to be which was great, thanks for having me Andrew and being a fantastic host!

The whole stay was seamless. Perfect apartment to explore Melbourne

Sheryl is the best host I have dealt with this far. She replies to you within minutes which I have found other hosts can take up to 6-7 hours to reply. Her place was the cleanest I’ve stayed at this far. To sum it up there’s nothing I could complain about at all. The property was great actually the outdoor area was better and bigger than it looked in the pics. Great place with a great host.

Kelvis place was fantastic!! Perfect location, great communication and was made life so easy!! Definitely value for money!

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.

Perfect location, super comfy bed and an overall pleasant stay :)

I had an amazing stay at this apartment which is in a great location close to the city. The host is friendly, responsive and goes above and beyond for any additional requests, ensuring a smooth experience throughout. I’d highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a longer stay.

Our stay was comfortable with all necessary comforts provided. The apartment was very clean, spacious bathrooms (helpful when travelling with a child) and the kitchen well equipped for our purposes. We had an overnight flight, and our hosts were accommodating with us requiring a different check-in. The express IGA is a minute's walk away to buy any basics you might need after travelling. There are local cafes in the streets behind the building (less than 5-minute walk) for a quick bite. The Southbank promenade is also under 5 minutes from the apartment with many restaurants to choose from (Pure South became our go to for breakfast, great menu and service). We were only a short walk from a pedestrian bridge to cross the Yarra, giving us easy access to Melbourne's great laneways and other attractions.
