This is a fantastic place in which to stay, and our host Jo Anne could not have been friendlier, more helpful or more thoughtful. On arrival, there was a lovely welcoming note, a gift of chocolates, the fridge was stocked with bread, milk, butter, jams, vegemite etc, and the apartment itself was beautiful and spotlessly clean.
We loved it from the moment we walked through the door, and Jo Anne’s instructions on how to obtain the key and gain access to the apartment, as well as the car parking and rubbish arrangements, were superb - a full detailed description of exactly what to do, fully supported by photographs and screen shots. It was so good that even a couple of old timers like us were able to follow it without any problems at all ! At all times, Jo Anne remained in contact (though very sadly, we never met her) and she showed immense concern for our well being and enjoyment of our stay in Melbourne.
Port Melbourne is a great location in which to stay, with easy access to the centre of Melbourne by tram and good road access to the excellent motorway system, taking us to places such as the Great Ocean Road and the. Macedon Ranges, as well as the beach side resort of St Kilda. There are plenty of nice bars and restaurants within a very short walk and a wide variety of shops, as well as the port area in which large cruise ships dock and the “Spirit of Tasmania” sails to Australia’s island state. We found it absolutely ideal.
We would stay at Jo Anne’s apartment again in a heartbeat - it was that good - and would not hesitate to recommend it to any friends travelling to Melbourne. Jo - please take a bow and enjoy the applause from this delighted couple - you
thoroughly deserve it .
