“Outstanding accommodation in Docklands”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed October 22, 2012 via mobile

The apartment is beautifully presented and absolutely pristine. It has every convenience you could possibly need and is located close to Woolworths where you can buy all your grocery needs. There is a children's playground across the road along with a tram stop which services the free Circle Line. The apartment is ten minutes walk to Harbour Town, Waterfront City, DFO's , The Crown Casino and Southbank. Paul and Belinda provided a wonderful service and were available throughout our stay. We really enjoyed our holiday and having a lovely apartment to come home to everyday really contributed to it.

“THE BEST”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed October 19, 2012

My colleague and I visited Melbourne for a conference, by chance we booked into Docklands executive apartments, what a pleasant surprise right in the heart of Melbourne with all services close by. Paul was amazing and so helpful, even taking our bags to the station for us. I have had the pleasure of visiting most of Australia's major cities this year and staying in some of the top name hotel's, but none compare to the Docklands apartments, the service from Paul was exceptionable( telling as all the do's and dont's of Melbourne, places to eat, ways to get around, he even gave us his number should we need anything or any help), the view was amazing both day and night, the apartment was well stocked and impeccable clean. Two women being in the heart of Melbourne we felt totally safe. I am already planning a return trip. Thank you Paul.

“Fantastic”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed October 14, 2012

Our family stayed at Docklands for three nights and our host Paul was fantastic.Paul even helped carry our luggage to the apartment and then took the time to ensure we were familar with getting around on our first visit to Melbourne. The unit would have to of been one of the cleanest I have ever stayed in and included generous amounts of coffee,soap,washing powder and so on.Very quite with a nice view over looking a park which our children loved.Paul also put me onto the coffee shop downstairs which has some of the best coffee ever.Excellent location and close to all attractions.I have no negatives at all regarding our stay and we will certainly be back.

What a compliment, we love the fact that you thought the apartment was one of the cleanest you have ever stayed in. From our point of view, we feel that this is very important, as the apartments are a lot larger than a motel room and require more checks when the cleaning is done. You also mention location and I would have to agree with you, that we are in the best part of Docklands, being so close to the Casino, DFO,CBD and waterfront restaurants. Having the local Safeway only minutes away by foot is also a bonus. Let us know when you are next in Melbourne, it would be great to have you stay again.

“Stunning apartment & outstanding service!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed October 12, 2012

Many thanks to hosts Belinda & Paul for their overwhelmingly accommodating service. Our original booking was made over 12 months ago, but due to the serious illness of one of our guests, we had to reschedule our stay. Belinda was amazingly obliging and did not hesitate to allow us to postpone... not once but twice! We finally managed to enjoy our weekend away in style. The apartment was just stunning - fabulous views, great location, beautifully appointed & extremely comfortable. We can not thank Belinda & Paul enough for the incredible hospitality and generousity shown to us, it certainly made our stay a memorable one.
We look forward to doing it again and would highly recommend these apartments - you won't be disappointed!
