St Kilda’s past is as colourful as its present. Long considered Melbourne’s seaside playground, known for its elite holiday culture in the 19th century, before moving into a late night entertainment district in the 1950s, 60s and beyond.
The suburb is a haven for artists, musicians, creatives attracting hordes of holidaymakers each summer and people from all walks of life year-round.
St Kilda maintains its vibrant sense of culture and is increasingly known for its cosmopolitan inner-city lifestyle. If you ask many of the locals what defines St Kilda, making it different from anywhere else in Melbourne – and perhaps the world they'll tell you its the eclectic and contrasting mix of characters and lifestyles.
A stone’s throw from the CBD, the 3182 postcode is inexhaustible in its list of all that it has to offer. Home to many famous tourist attractions, a trip to Melbourne is not complete without a visit to St Kilda and its strip of palm tree-lined beaches, heritage buildings and eclectic dining scene, reminiscent of a curious cross between Venice Beach and San Francisco.
A list of St Kilda's must do's and places to enjoy is included in our 'House Manual' located in the Penthouse, please make sure you indulge in the best our location has to offer.
