Pet-friendly vacation rentals in Yarra River

What an incredible location and house for our wedding weekend. Ted and Min were lovely to communicate with and helpful whenever we needed them. Gorgeous property!

We had such a fabulous stay. The cottage is well appointed and thoughtfully and tastefully decorated. It’s a very cool and cheery interior. The beds were extremely comfortable and the shower pressure was seriously amazing. Josh was really responsive to messages and so thoughtful. The generous touches with some provisions in the kitchen and even treats for our dog were greatly appreciated. The cottage is close to transport and close to the city. So many great cafes nearby. Great central location to explore Melbourne. Highly recommend. Thank you for a wonderful stay.

We loved our stay at Driftwood! The home was so cosy and had everything we needed for our little staycation. Pippa went above and beyond with the amenities, it was the most we've ever seen at an Airbnb. Highly recommend!

Clean, comfy and warm. In a great location & has all the amenities you’d hope for when staying down the peninsula.

Clean and tidy house. The main Bathroom was to die for, absolutely loved the bath and the master bedroom. The house is smaller than it looks and its a unit situated at the bottom of a pretty steep driveway on a very steep hill so not the best location for someone that has an injury or struggles with walking. Was advised after I booked that the owner did not want us using the driveway after 9pm because the front unit has a baby which is understandable but also inconvenient, it would of been nice to know this information prior to booking. There is also no side gate so anybody can walk around the house and into the backyard at their own leisure so that definitely raised some safety concerns. Overall, it was a nice stay.

My experience with the hosts was excellent and the property was even more beautiful than the photos. The house was huge and everything you could possibly need and want was provided. We arrived to a roaring fire, a fridge stocked with generous breakfast provisions and a freshly baked cake which was a lovely touch. The beds and furnishings were very comfortable and a phone charger provided which was great as I’d forgotten mine! I would highly recommend the property and will definitely be back. Thanks for a wonderful stay Leonie and John

Our family of 5 had a great stay at Graci's home in Port Melbourne. Lots of space, great amenities, quiet location, close to amenities. We would definitely stay again.

Was a great location and perfect for us and the dog. We enjoyed our stay and we were very comfortable. Boris was very responsive when we had a question.

This place is beautiful. Furnished with pieces from all over the world, plenty of greenery inside and out. Veronika is very pleasant and helpful. A great little getaway inside Victoria

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!

Overall a nice place to stay. Peter was super responsive and he replace the shampoo immediately when I told him it ran out.

There are so many positive things to say. I was torn between staying in the CBD or Southbank, and I definitely made the best choice. The apartment is almost right in front of the Yarra River, such a beautiful spot for walks. The whole area is so cozy and welcoming. The apartment was clean, with an incredibly comfortable bed. The sheets and duvet were hotel-quality, so soft to sleep in, and the same goes for the fluffy bath towels, plenty of them too. The shower had great pressure and was wonderfully hot, perfect for relaxing after a day of sightseeing. The curtains in both the living room and bedroom were amazing. We even got to watch some ballet rehearsals from our balcony! John and his wife were very kind and polite. They gave us great local tips and even allowed us to check in earlier, as the apartment was ready ahead of time, which we really appreciated! The pool, hot jacuzzi, and sauna are definitely worth using, such a well-maintained space. Amazing hosts and an amazing place.

Magda was lovely from the start and provided clear instructions for check-in and suggested parking options nearby as well as we were driving all the way from Sydney. The place felt comfortable and cosy and will definitely recommend for couples looking to stay with pups.

Great location close to public transport, restaurants, cafes and shopping. Easy to navigate and in a nice area. Loved that it was also pet friendly and our pup enjoyed staying with us on our trip. The apartment was also very clean and tidy with 2 sets of keys provided making it easy and stress free when travelling with others

Really good location with a nice cozy room. Very clean and comfortable and exactly as described highly recommend

My husband, myself and our 4 adult children stayed at Lavender Farm. When first arriving we were greeted by their friendly dogs. Jacky had made a delicious cake and fresh bread plus farm fresh eggs and bacon ready for breakfast the next morning. It made us feel right at home. The farm is beautiful as is the accommodation. Tony (the host) was very friendly and helpful. The town itself has everything you need. Healesville is a lovely place to stay. I would highly recommend Lavender Farm.

We loved our stay here. Easily suited two young families for a warm cosy weekend with everything we needed. Great sized house and bedrooms and the heating really worked well for the cold snap we were there for! Thanks Bryan and Erin for a great weekend stay

Mistwood is just off the main street but feels a world away given it’s down a steep drive and surrounded on by natural bush land. The house is very comfortably, cozy and homely with everything you need for a long weekend. My only issue was the weather was so bad all weekend I didn’t get to use the outdoor bath! Nicole was an excellent host too.

Before I start, I'll tell you the end; you should stay here if you ever get the chance! From the first moment I contacted Helen with an enquiry, to their final goodbye message, they were the best hosts I've ever experienced. They were super friendly, responded ridiculously quick, gave great recommendations and truly felt they loved you staying at their place. And Amy, who let us in, was just as brilliant and welcoming! As for the unit, it was super-clean, had an awesome view, was quiet and secure and was the type of place you wish you could style your own like. The kitchen fit-out was top notch and the pantry was full of great staples if you ever wanted to cook. However, why would you cook at this end of the cbd with restaurants, bars, cafes and laneway hideouts galore? I love staying at their Spring St end of town and this place just made it even better.

We had a lovely stay. Very relaxing with beautiful views, great location. Host offered flexible check in and check out times and was very responsive. Highly recommended!

Thank you for having us at your beautiful house in such a beautiful location. The coffee machine and wood heater were my favourite. Bring Ugg boots and firewood if you’re coming in winter.

I had a great time at this place. It's peaceful, cosy and the views are wonderful! The host is considerate, helpful and communicative. Overall, I found it incredibly easy to relax at the place whilst also getting some work done. I’d recommend it to anyone looking for a break from the city without going too far off the grid.

Great location and a beautiful location! Perfect for our girls weekend.

Check-in details were super duper easy and matched description & didn’t require messaging the host. Host’s were respectful and polite. The tiny home had everything available and especially liked that there was a variety of local wines to purchase which prevented going into town! My pup had a great little holiday away from home, it was so nice to see him run around and say hello to the horse on the property and have a run on the beach. Would be happy to come back; felt nice being in the country air. Thank you :-)
