The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We had a wonderful Easter in in the house that was spotlessly clean, had all the amenities required (plus some!) and was as described perfectly. The only disappointing issue was that the bedrooms aren't air conditioned which the profile didn't mention. However we would thoroughly recommend the property. ##### A guest from Toorak, Victoria ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Great Southern Hotel Melbourne](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Melbourne-Hotels-Great-Southern-Hotel-Melbourne.h27851.Hotel-Information) > > [Buffalo Mountain Lodge](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Banff-Hotels-Buffalo-Mountain-Lodge.h35659.Hotel-Information) > > [Family-Friendly Hotels in Greek Mainland](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Greek-Mainland-Hotels-Family-Friendly-Hotel.0-0-d6271740-tFamilyFriendlyHotel.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Quincy Hotel Melbourne](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Melbourne-Hotels-Quincy-Hotel-Melbourne.h57242156.Hotel-Information) > > [Grand Hyatt Dubai](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Dubai-Hotels-Grand-Hyatt-Dubai.h20321.Hotel-Information) > > [SH Valencia Palace Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Valencia-Hotels-SH-Valencia-Palace-Hotel.h525767.Hotel-Information) > > [The Waverley International Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Melbourne-Hotels-The-Waverley-International-Hotel.h3504259.Hotel-Information) > > [The Ring Pub Bed and Breakfast](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Rhosgoch-Hotels-The-Ring-Pub-Bed-And-Breakfast.h63161546.Hotel-Information) > > [Holiday Inn Melbourne Airport by IHG](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Melbourne-Hotels-Holiday-Inn-Melbourne-Airport.h12401.Hotel-Information) > > [Flagstaff Gardens Hotel Melbourne](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Melbourne-Hotels-Radisson-On-Flagstaff-Gardens-Melbourne.h82772.Hotel-Information) > > [Comfort Apartments Royal Gardens](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Melbourne-Hotels-Royal-Gardens.h425401.Hotel-Information) > > [Family-Friendly Hotels in New York](https://www.expedia.co.uk/New-York-Hotels-Family-Friendly-Hotel.0-0-d178293-tFamilyFriendlyHotel.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Fairmont San Francisco](https://www.expedia.co.uk/San-Francisco-Hotels-Fairmont-San-Francisco.h18200.Hotel-Information) > > [Beach Resorts & Hotels in Calais](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Calais-Hotels-Beach-Hotels.0-0-d6664-tBeachHotels.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Travelodge Hotel Melbourne Docklands](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Melbourne-Hotels-Travelodge-Hotel-Melbourne-Docklands.h3033860.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Waterlooville](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Waterlooville-Hotels.d6130799.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Holiday Inn Resort Orlando - Lake Buena Vista by IHG](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Orlando-Hotels-Holiday-Inn-Resort-Orlando-Lake-Buena-Vista.h19535.Hotel-Information) > > [Grand Hyatt Melbourne](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Melbourne-Hotels-Grand-Hyatt-Melbourne.h23775.Hotel-Information) > > [Atlantis Hotel, Melbourne](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Melbourne-Hotels-Atlantis-Hotel.h864494.Hotel-Information) > > [Ovolo Melbourne South Yarra, a Wyndham Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Melbourne-Hotels-Ovolo-South-Yarra.h63305062.Hotel-Information) > > [Carlton Lygon Lodge](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Melbourne-Hotels-Carlton-Lygon-Lodge.h4790050.Hotel-Information) > > [Space Hotel - Hostel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Melbourne-Hotels-Space-Hotel-Hostel.h2100092.Hotel-Information) > > [Mercure Melbourne Southbank](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Melbourne-Hotels-Mercure-Melbourne-Southbank.h898381.Hotel-Information) > > [Crowne Plaza Melbourne by IHG](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Melbourne-Hotels-Crowne-Plaza-Melbourne.h845390.Hotel-Information) ### Activities ### Packages > [Fjord Norway Holidays](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Fjord-Norway.d6056648.Holidays-City-Breaks) ### General ---
