Gary was a perfect host who made sure we had a great time in his lovely house. Its just around the corner from the charming local village and a five minute walk to the beach. We made great use of the beach during our stay.

The house was just what we expected and was in perfect condition when we arrived with the added bonus of marvelous fluffy towels and top quality bed linen.

Gary left us a very thorough guide to the area in which he recommended many local restaurants and places to visit. He was also kind enough to leave local maps and MyKi transit cards available for us. He even pre-loaded each transit card with cash so we could use them immediately. We highly recommend using the trams. There are two tram lines a short walk from the house both of which we used extensively during our stay.

The local area has some great restaurants that Gary recommended. We particularly liked the Lord Cardigan restaurant where we ate on our first night. We also loved the great breakfasts at the Hot Honey just around the corner and can recommend the Mediterraneo restaurant and Jock's Ice Creams and Sorbets, both a comfortable walk away.

We loved our visit to Melbourne not least because of Gary's keen interest in making our stay such a memorable one and hope to go back one day.
