Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy
Stayed 28 nights in May 2025
Response from VrboOwner on 25 Jul 2025
Rad was polite in communication and made an effort to tidy before leaving. He remained engaged and cooperative during follow-up, which we appreciated. However, the stay involved property damage, excessive cleaning, and a serious incident involving another guest. The situation resulted in significant disruption, including the need to rekey the entire property for security. Although Rad later demonstrated accountability, the incidents raised serious concerns regarding Rad and his guests management and the upkeep of the property. We would not host again, but with clearer responsibilities, Rad could be a suitable guest elsewhere.

I love my family. This is my brother's home, who is in the UK recovering from cancer treatment. We use the funds raised from this BnB to support that ongoing recovery.

We have been using the other major bnb platform for the last two years. You can check us out there if you wish. We are in the top performers in our area with consistent 5-star reviews. However, we wish to expand our options, which is why we are here.

This is a lovely family style home and most of our guests enjoy the peaceful surrounds and a location close the country but within a comfortable distance to the city attractions with ample public transport.

Why they chose this property

This home is on the border of Kilsyth and Croydon, Melbourne, two hidden gems offering a perfect mix of tranquility and adventure. Surrounded by the stunning beauty of the Dandenong Ranges and Yarra Valley, they are ideal for outdoor lovers who enjoy hiking, wineries, and exploring local parks.

Croydon’s family-friendly vibe, with charming cafes and peaceful retreats, is just a short ride from Melbourne’s city life.

Kilsyth offers a relaxed atmosphere with cozy shops and cafes, perfect for unwinding. You can easily access public transport, allowing you to explore nature and reach the city for more activities.

This is my brother's home, who loves the outer eastern suburbs of Melbourne. Close to the mountains, and the wine and beauty of the Yarra Valley.

He lives in London and Australia and works as a professional musician. He purchased this home in the area where he grew up. A place to call home, should he need it.

On 21 May 21, 2022, my brother Ron suffered a life-changing event that nearly cost him his life. Ron is on the road to recovery. This Short Stay Home is dedicated to supporting Ron and His family, Hannah, his loving partner, his daughter Holly and stepdaughter Saoirse Roche, on their journey.

This project is designed to help him keep his home and to aid in his ongoing life expenses as a result of the above events. When you stay with us, you not only have a great time and have a home for your stay, you will also contribute to his life as a bonus.

What makes this property unique

What a little gem! So happy to have found this house. The home is older style & very cosy with modern comforts including a renovated kitchen & bathroom. It is in a lovely quiet location within close proximity to shops and other amenities and is a perfect base to explore Melbourne, the Yarra Valley, and Dandenong Ranges.
Owen was an exceptional host, ensuring we had everything we needed, including pantry and fridge staples and a few treats. Communication with Owen before and during our stay was seamless and he greeted us on arrival to show us around and ensure our we had everything we needed.
Highly recommended and would absolutely love to stay again!

"This place felt like home to me and Melton. We stayed there for almost 3 months and the place gave us a home feels.
Owen was very responsive and helpful in every inquiry I had. And even grant my request to drop a smoothie blender.
I would definitely book the place again should I need one in the future."
