Holiday rentals with outdoor seating in Mount Dandenong

What a beautiful little slice of the yarra valley. The heating was very efficient, it was icy overnight and we had no idea. We woke to kangaroos outside the window each morning. The caretakers lodge was much closer to the accommodation than I expected, however they were very helpful and friendly and I didn't see them apart from when I checked in. The house is stunning. The view from the huge windows is lovely. It felt very luxurious and was a lovely place to stay after getting married. I would absolutely recommend Kangaroo Manor to others, and I'd love the opportunity to stay there again one day. The hosts were very proactive, kind, and professional, and gave me the impression that I could contact them at any time. Thank you for a very memorable experience.

Great location, easy access to public transport and amenities. Beautifully decorated, a lovely space to escape to.

We loved our stay here! The view is even better than the photos, with gorgeous countryside all around. It's a quiet, peaceful, and private spot. You’ll need a car though, since it’s in a rural area. The apartment was clean and well stocked. We appreciated the quality sheets, pillows, and towels, and the bed was comfy. We both slept well. The space felt roomy for two, which made it easy to relax. The kitchen was stocked with thoughtful basics like bread and eggs, which was a nice touch. Check-in was smooth and the instructions were clear. A couple of small downsides: the internet was hit or miss. Sometimes fast, sometimes slow to load a basic webpage. The washer/dryer wasn’t working, which was inconvenient. There was a sign offering a pick-up and drop-off laundry service, but we didn’t use it since we prefer to do our own washing (my wife has certain items that need to air dry). Even so, we had a great time and would happily recommend this Airbnb. A lovely, quiet place to unwind.

Eric couldn’t have been more accommodating and helpful. Their starter kitchen breakfast was perfect and delicious. The house was spotlessly clean, and the bedding extremely comfortable. We’d flown over from Scotland, so comfort was important. I would highly recommend staying here.

I had a great stay in Jans property. It was a beautiful house, super clean and she was flexible with checkout time. The electric blanket and heaters in the bedroom were an extra bonus.

Loved staying at Jonathan and Gerry’s place. Peaceful and beautiful surroundings. The place was clean and very comfy and lots of toys for our little one. The wood heater is a must! Thanks for having us :)

We are locals that needed a place to stay while we had some repairs done to our property. Jeremy was responsive and friendly. We really appreciated being able to bring our dogs with us. The creek and nature was beautiful. The bath is a standout, loved using it each day!

Nothing can quite prepare you for what is the most stunning house. And don't get us started on the view. We loved everything about this stay. Kristy was an amazing and thoughtful host, leaving us a beautiful welcome pack upon entry. Our boys love the property's trail walks and the wallabies. No wombats were sighted, but they must be here somewhere! Memories made at Ridge House will stay with us for years to come.

This was our second stay with Ben and Murray. The location is amazing, the apartment is clean, and quiet, even though you’re so close to the bustle of South Yarra. We always have such a good night’s sleep! Ben and Murray are helpful and respond very quickly to any communication, and we wouldn’t want to stay anywhere else when we visit Melbourne.

A terrific spot, so well located and appointed. My second stay and I will be back. Thank you.

We had a lovely stay at this charming property in Sherbrook. The room was simple but beautifully decorated, creating a calm and welcoming atmosphere. The host was fantastic—personally greeted us and made sure we were all checked in comfortably. The surrounding gardens were stunning and added a peaceful touch to the whole experience. And the bathtub? Absolutely massive! We’d honestly come back just to soak in it again. A wonderful getaway—highly recommend!

Stayed 2 nights at Allan and Elizabeth’s listing. The place was as per photos and felt very clean and fresh. Host was kind to get the heating turned on for us before we arrived as it was a cold day. We chose this area as it was in close proximity to the massive Chadstone shopping centre and is between Melbourne and Phillip Island (penguins). Overall a very pleasant and easy stay. Do note to request for self check-in if required as we had the host wait up for us and we felt really bad!

Sarah’s place is a good find. Conveniently located near downtown Melbourne. She was very responsive. Incredible views of downtown Melbourne from her place. You have to pick up the key from a local grocery store (which worked fine) and there is only one key, but overall the stay was great. Excellent swimming pool and gym. Recommend staying here! Good value!

Thanks for having us! Beautiful clean place with everything we needed. Private, in walking distance to main strip, cosy - very relaxing. Would stay again ☀️

Chante was an absolutely amazing host, The Penthouse was squeaky clean, Kitchen was beautiful and had all you need - Coffee/milk/sugar/coffe machine all the cutlery you might need. The spa is amazing, the bed and couch are super comfortable, and Chante was kind enough to allow us an early check-in upon request. She was very responsive and friendly as well , would absolutely recommend this place, The only thing you might find a bit odd is the smell due to the spa being in the open but use the Exhause fan on top of the spa that helps alot, My only recommendation would be adding some sort of Air-freshner, Other than that this place was absolutely Fantastic. 💯

One of the most beautiful places I have ever stayed. So close to everything, big space and a beautiful view! The stairs to get to the apartment were quickly forgotten when we walked in. Beautiful place and very kind and generous hosts!

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!

The whole stay was seamless. Perfect apartment to explore Melbourne

We felt very cosy in this apartment due to the great couch, comfortable bed, terrific heater in the bedroom and nice decor as well as really clean throughout. The kitchen is well appointed and the bathroom has good shelf space and a really hot and good pressure shower.

Sheryl is the best host I have dealt with this far. She replies to you within minutes which I have found other hosts can take up to 6-7 hours to reply. Her place was the cleanest I’ve stayed at this far. To sum it up there’s nothing I could complain about at all. The property was great actually the outdoor area was better and bigger than it looked in the pics. Great place with a great host.

Kelvis place was fantastic!! Perfect location, great communication and was made life so easy!! Definitely value for money!

Kate's cosy apartment was super good. Restaurants, theaters, great shopping, transport and even parks all really close by. Really close. Great shower, comfy bed, and so many thoughtful extras that I never expected. Thanks Kate for a wonderful week.

Perfect location, super comfy bed and an overall pleasant stay :)

We had a great stay. Everything was as described, very clean, we had everything we needed, the hosts were incredibly responsive and we were very comfortable.
