Beachfront holiday rentals in Brighton

Olivia’s apartment was exactly as described. Beautifully appointed, cosy apartment in Elwood. Directly opposite the beach and a short walk to public transport, shops and cafes. The apartment was light filled and with considerable space for two people. The bed was very comfortable, and the soundproofing on the windows made for a very quiet room. We stayed for a short weekend, so didn’t make use of the kitchen - but it had a coffee machine, toaster, oven etc and all the things you might need. We had a lovely stay and would highly recommend.

Host was responsive and proactive, keen to give guests a positive experience. House is well located, walkable distance to shops and restaurants and the beach. Thanks for having me! Will definitely visit again.

Our family stayed for just over a month and enjoyed the house! We appreciated the four bedrooms with individual AC/heat and comfy beds and bedding. The view of the ocean was amazing from the two bedrooms on that side of the house. The back green space connects directly to a wonderful beach for walking. The air hockey table was fun, and kiddo really appreciated the large number of books to read! Our kiddo went to Edithvale Primary School while we stayed at the house, and they really enjoyed it. Restaurants and train station are an easy ~10-15 min walk. Highly recommend!

Beautiful place! We had a fantastic stay with my family —everything was exactly as described. The house was clean, comfortable, and beautifully decorated. The host was welcoming and very helpful.

Amazing place and amazing hosts. 10/10 :)

We had another great break at Dianne’s place. The time just flew by and we’re now planning our next visit for next year .

We had a lovely stay at this cosy and comfortable home. The location is peaceful and private, just a short walk to beautiful beaches — perfect for kids to ride their bikes and collect shells. The house was quite clean overall, with just a few small details overlooked, but the host was very responsive to feedback. The space was warm and inviting, with great heating and very comfortable beds. Our dogs loved it too — the secure, high fences made it a perfect pet-friendly getaway. We’d happily book again! The coffee machine was a very welcome addition for this exhausted mum of two boys! Thanks for having us.

Friendly, flexible and welcoming. Just a wonderful experience and will visit again.

We stayed four nights and other than going to a couple of local wineries for lunch we were very happy to sit around enjoying the house. It is large and airy, beautifully decorated and the location is stunning. The beach out the front gate, yet so quiet and peaceful. Sitting on the front porch with a coffee watching the sun rise over the bay was a highlight. Relaxing in the heated spa late afternoon before drinks out the front and dinners at the beautiful long table in the meals area. The house had all you could possibly need in the kitchen area along with a wide array of pantry items.

This place has the most breathtaking views from every room in the house. The beach is a 2 minute walk and is pretty much secluded. It was clean and tidy with all the things you need without all the clutter. I would definitely recommend this house to stay .. host is lovely to deal with! Thank you for a wonderful stay.

Very nice place. Spacious and well-kept. Relaxing spa and sauna.

Great and cominicative host! Everything fits with description + best printed guide what can be visit in neigborhood. All stars deserved!

Wonderful location to stay in! We had a car and the private parking space in the gated area was perfect. We also took public transportation and the tram was a short walk. We did so much on our week long stay, and after a full day of activities it was great to come back to our place. The bathrooms were great, instant hot water with no wait! The beach is just a block or two away, and we gathered a lot of shells to collect, there were millions on the shore! We had a full week including a few day trips. South Melbourne Market and Prahran market were wonderful markets. We drove out to Yarra Valley and did a U Pick fruit tour, we did a small walk at Rainforest Gallery, we did a Funky Farm tour(so cool!), and we even saw the Penguin Parade which is a must do! Some details, what worked best for us was parking the car and then using the key card to go through the passenger gate to get in/out of the front door. There is also a small remote to unlock open/close the car gate. Thanks Gemma!!

Great communication from start to finish. Simon was very welcoming and helpful. The apartment was just like the photos and so well equipped with generous offerings; beds were super comfy and the pool was a standout! Thanks for such a comfortable stay and hope to return again one day!

What a fabulous spot to enjoy what Melbourne has to offer. The views are truly spectacular and the apartment is well equipped. Would definitely stay again.

Sharon and John's property is a beautiful place to stay, great facilities, we loved the pool, very relaxing and in a great location! Sharon and John were brilliant hosts and they have built a home away from home feeling. Would definitely recommend and would stay again!

Loretta’s place matched the description. She was great and answered all our questions during our stay!

Great Place to stay right in the middle of town, close to shops and places to eat and easy walk across to park and pier. Very nice place to stay and quiet, well set out and plenty of room. Can recommend Harbour View as a great place to stay.

This was our second stay here, and we’ll definitely be returning again. The house is clean, well-maintained, and beautifully presented. The location is ideal—just steps from the ocean, where the sound of the waves creates a truly relaxing atmosphere. The hosts are friendly, highly responsive, and communicate exceptionally well, making the experience even more enjoyable.

I cant believe how great this place is. The building amenities are 5 star. The apartment is brand new and has everything you need. We walked to dinner and had a nice stroll along the beach across the road. Views on the rooftop deck are incredible.

Lovely spot in Seaford. Back of the building complex so very quiet and peaceful. No noise from other residents. Easy walk to the shops of Seaford, either along the beach or along the creek. We did have issues with access through the front door which Sid tried to help with. We ended up just using the key to the back door for coming and going. Great space for a couple, 2 couples or a small family. Maybe a carton of milk for guests would be a nice touch of welcome.

Great place to stay with the 6 of us and our furry friends as well. Beach shack was just as described and we love it. Pool table was a hit and played it lots. Would have loved champagne glasses supplied and proper fencing for dogs would be an added bonus. We will be back for sure

I don't normally do reviews, but for this place and location I just had to. I needed a little getaway after a busy start to the year and I'm so glad I stayed here. Firstly, the place is absolutely beautiful, brand new, having the downstairs and upstairs areas was just perfect. The environment felt like it was at a quiet resort and was only one street behind the beach within walking distance to the pier where I fished in the afternoon/evening, dinner was at the pub just up the road, didn't have to drive anywhere. In the morning I sat on the balcony overlooking the water in the distance, having a coffee and just enjoyed the fresh air. Will definitely be back, I needed this getaway.

Great apartment and good location. We really enjoyed our stay, as well as the morning walks and coffee at the retro-van (opens at 5am!).
