We chose Natalie’s apartment as a base for our trip to Melbourne to see family whilst travelling with our small dog. The location of the apartment was perfect as it is only one block from the dog off-leash St Kilda beaches and fabulous parks such as Catani Gardens and many walkways / boulevards. It is also only a couple of blocks away from the Albert Park Lakes and Gardens with kms of walks around the park. Trams run directly in front of the property providing easy access to the city and to South Melbourne markets. Shops and restaurants are also readily accessible.
The apartment is a very generous size with two bedrooms, a large lounge area, dining room, bathroom and laundry. The kitchen is fully stocked with automatic coffee machine, dishwasher, microwave, and a wide range of cooking utensils, pans etc. We found parking to be very easy on the street immediately in front of the apartment using the parking permit provided by Natalie. A locked garage is also available for smaller cars.
The apartment was very well provisioned by Natalie with supplies such as bacon, eggs, orange juice, milk and fresh bread. The apartment also has lots of extras not normally found including spices, kitchen wraps / papers, coffee pods, laundry powders etc to make the stay much more enjoyable.
Two excellent cafes are located within 1 block walking distance offering a range of delicious food options- especially for breakfast with great muffins, croissants etc.
Overall Natalie’s apartment was a perfect location to enjoy our trip to Melbourne.
