Heidi and Tim are responsive and kind hosts. Their home is conveniently located to parks and shops and was a comfortable place for us to recover from my husband surgery.

Brilliant find, within walking distance of mordialloc centre/beach/train station. Host had thought of everything and there were lots of little extra touches including essentials for when we arrived. Couldn’t ask for more. Will definitely look to book again when we visit our family.

Mordialloc Stay

A great location, 10min walk to all amenities, Train, Town and beach. Outdoor space a bit limited.

Thanks Patrick. It is an easy walk to all the places Mordi has to offer. The outdoor space is actually very generous for a 2 bedroom property in the area. Thanks for choosing our little piece of paradise.

Just the best place we ever stayed!

Excellent location: quite place close to the beach, station and local shops/restaurants. Stylish, very clean and having everything you need to relax, cook and enjoy your staying in Melbourne. We arrived about midnight and Heidi was so kind to provide us with everything we needed for breakfast and many other helpful things like salt, oil, spices, pasta, coffee, tea, etc. Many thanks, Heidi.

Home away from home

This weekend we had the privilege of staying at this beautiful little gem, it was truely a "home away from home." An absolutely gorgeous home with such a welcomed touch from the host, who made sure we had everything we needed for a comfortable, safe and enjoyable stay. It was magnificent! Super host is an understatement! ❤️ We can't wait to have the opportunity to book another stay and feel the warmth and comfort in this cosy home. Thank you!!!!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

The sweetest stay ever

We traveled far from the US and didn’t know anyone. Our hosts have become our first friends here! Upon arrival, they had everything we could ever need and more. Special toys and little details to make the children and adults feel at home. The home is very clean, the beds are all comfy and the neighborhood is just lovely. The walk along the creek to the beach and town is just perfection. We’re staying at least another month! If you’re looking for a host who cares and a relaxing stay, you won’t be disappointed. It’s a gem for sure.

So thrilled to know you felt safe & at home. If my family & I feel at home when we have a city stay in our ‘Mordi Gem 💎’ then I know my guests will ✨ We hope you come back again for another holiday in Australia!

The perfect stay!

Our second stay at Heidi & Tim's place! It is such a gem. Very clean, kid friendly and the perfect location. We were nervous about having 1 bathroom for our family, but the way the property is set up -- it worked out fine! The huge soaking tub, shower and sink are separate from the toilet. The beds are super comfy, which is hard for us to find! Great linens, plenty of towels and blankets. The back deck was our favorite hang out spot. The neighbors are lovely and inviting. It's a happy place and the hosts couldn't be more kind and helpful. We'll be back!

Thank you Laura & family! You have all been a delight to host. We agree with your sentiments about the bathroom- the separate toilet helps with a large group & the deep bath is such a treat. We hope to host you again! ✨

Perfect family retreat

This home has everything you need and more! Comfy beds, bath for the lil ones. Owner had essentials waiting for us in the kitchen which was a blessing after a long trip from NZ. Plenty of cutlery/crockery for our 2 year old. Toys, beautiful deck to chill on, washing machine. Short walk to playground, also a great family beer and pizza place in the industrial area which a kids play area. Mordi is such a fun place to stay, Morsi canteen best coffee, mates bar was awesome! Didn’t get time to try it all, but highly recommend as a place to stay. The photos don’t do it justice - you won’t regret booking this home for a couple or family stay. Thank you!
