    Two french girls, 25 years old.

    We stayed 2 weeks at Victoria and Andrew's house for visiting Melbourne.
    We enjoyed our stay with a big bedroom and the clean facilities.
    The home is nice and Victoria is welcoming.
    The Camberwell's district is a peaceful place.

    Thanks a lot to Victoria.

    Lovely family in a great area! Railway station and shops really close to the house. It is really nice to share a dinner and have a chat with the family! I really enjoyed my stay and I stayed a little bit longer than expected. I sincerely recommand this homestay, it was a good experience for my first weeks in Melbourne! Thank you so much

    The rooms are located in a big house, they are very nice and confortable, excellent quality/price balance. The house location is perfect, just 300m from Camberwell Station. The family was awesome, absolutely kind, nice and friendly. My experience in Australia, thanks to this family, was the best ever! Highly recommended!!

How do I book?

Contact the host to check their availability and ask them any questions you have about staying with them. Once the host confirms they’re available for your dates, you can complete your booking.

When do I pay?

Once a host confirms they're available, you can go ahead and pay the 15% booking fee (maximum of 250 $£€ for longer term bookings) using a choice of payment methods: Visa, Mastercard, American Express, Maestro, Laser, JCB & PayPal (not available in certain countries). You then pay your host on arrival or as stated by your host on their profile and agreed by you on booking. Please be cautious if a host requests advance payment if its not included on their profile. Our hosts have been advised that if they wish to request advance payment they must make this explicit in their profile. We do not recommend the use of Money gram or Western Union.

When can I share my contact details?

Host and Guest email address, phone number and home address will be exchanged in a confirmation email sent to both immediately after a booking is completed. It's against our policy for Guests and Hosts to exchange direct contact details via our messaging system.
