Your Airbnb is ideally situated close to both Elsternwick Park and Elwood Beach, giving you easy access to outdoor activities like swimming, sunbathing, cycling, and picnicking. In fact, Elwood Beach is only a 10-minute walk away, so you can enjoy the sand and surf whenever you like.

But there's more to Elwood than just the beach. The neighborhood is also known for its tree-lined streets, beautiful gardens, and cozy cafes. Head to Ormond Road to explore the local shops and eateries, or take a stroll through the peaceful Ripponlea Estate gardens. And if you're looking for a bit of nightlife, Elwood has plenty of bars and restaurants to choose from.

Of course, one of the best things about Elwood is its proximity to other Melbourne attractions. The city center is just a short tram ride away, so you can easily explore all the cultural and culinary offerings that Melbourne has to offer. And if you're looking for a bit of nature, the Royal Botanic Gardens and St. Kilda Botanical Gardens are both within easy reach.

Overall, your Airbnb in Elwood offers the perfect blend of beachside relaxation and urban convenience. Whether you're looking to explore Melbourne's many attractions or simply unwind by the sea, you'll find everything you need right here in Elwood.

Please be respectful of the property, keep it clean, and return it the same way you received it - i.e. take out the rubbish, wash up any used dishes etc. If there are excessive amounts of rubbish and/or dirty dishes left inside the apartment, extra cleaning fees may apply.

No parties or events at any time. If you're coming to Melbourne to party, you've picked a great city to do so - just not at our place. Though we're sure it won't come to it, complaints of unruly behaviour will unfortunately result in you being asked to leave. Not good for you. Not good for us.

Do not engage in illegal activities anywhere on the property. What you do in your personal time is entirely up to you, but when staying at our place we have a strict no drug use policy. This is just the law, not so much one of our rules.

Do not tamper with any smoke alarms. Tampering with the smoke alarms will result in fines up to $15,000.
If you break or damage something, please do the responsible thing and let us know so we can arrange for its replacement/repair.

Do not leave any food out that will attract uninvited pests. Our home is pest-free and we intend to keep it that way with your help.

No noise, loud music, screaming, loud talking outside or inside anytime.

Any breach of these rules may result in the loss of your deposit and the immediate cancellation of your booking.

Please note that we have strict rules as this is a residential building and our personal property. While some of them may seem obvious to you, they are not so obvious to others and we therefore must have a strict policy regarding them. Common decency and respect for others' property is essentially all we're asking.
We reserve the right to request a security deposit and / or a copy of photo ID.

Walk to beach from quaint neighborhood; Incredibly clean!
Location, cleanliness and overall condition were perfect! From this property, it was a short walk to the beach but it was also tucked away enough that it's quiet. The unit was amazingly clean and comfortable inside. I was visiting nearby family in Ellwood, so this worked out really well. Also, the property managers were very proactive and friendly to reach out and make sure everything was okay prior to and during the stay. I was visiting from overseas, and when I visit again, I would definitely book this property again. It was more space than I needed, as I was traveling alone, so I would say it would also be a perfect size for a small family looking to get away and spend time in this coastal area. Another testament to how wonderful the property managers were, is the fact that I unintentionally left a few items behind and they arranged to ship the items to me. That was better than I expected, so that's also the customer service that wins. I would gladly book with them again for this property, or other properties that they manage. Much appreciated.

Great location for us and our dog.
Lovely clean and bright apartment. Great for a two night stay with all the necessities provided. The proximity to Elsternwick Park is fantastic for people and pets. We also loved that it was quiet.
