This place is absolutely magnificent. So beautiful and tranquil. You feel like you have landed in Tuscany without the jetlag. It's a lovely retreat away from the city. So clean and well presented. Would definetly come back.

Linda is a gracious host. We never met, but feel that we did through her beautiful home. Full of her great art (by Linda) and amazing vintage finds. A true labour of love. Very cozy and comfortable. So much to enjoy and make you smile. Would love to visit again next time we are come to Victoria. Manuela

if you are looking for something unique, different and unforgettable, then this is the place. the house is rustic but also modern and the area and garden is beautiful. It was like living in Tuscany.

The Menzies Creek area was a great base to explore the Dandenongs and the Yarra Valley area. The hills experience was fantastic.

My partner and I stayed at "The Potteridge" for 2 nights and absolutely loved it from the moment we walked in the door. If in need of a break from the city then this place is relaxing, cosy and nestled amongst some beautiful scenery. A place to unwind - Linda's description is spot on and the design of her home truly unique. I would definitely stay here again.

Loved this beautiful house - located in such a tranquil and relaxing place, but easy to be navigated to. Loved the open plan and had a great weekend away

Great place to stay in a very relaxed space. Highly recommended.

Had a great stay at Linda's lovely house - spacious, clean and warm. Fresh local strawberries, bread, milk and staples in the cupboard were very welcome on a rainy night! Woke up to Crimson Rosellas chattering in the garden.

We had a great little stay at Anne's house. We loved how everything was so green. You can go for a walk around the block. The Puffing Billy station is 1 min walk from the house. Everything is really close if you drive. Breakfast was really nice, great selection of things.

This is a very comfortable place to stay and use as a base to explore what the Dandenong Ranges have to offer. Anne and Steve are very welcoming and offer their vast local knowledge to assist with exploring this beautiful area.

I would just like to say thank you to Anne and her husband for being such wonderful hosts. Upon arrival, we were greeted by Anne, shown around the property and given lots of useful information for the surrounding areas including the Puffing Billy Train. Anne's home was beautifully set up. Our room was immaculate, had storage space and heating and everything we needed for a comfortable night was provided including the offer of a port-a-cot for our baby. The bathroom and kitchen were clean and tidy and Anne left us freshly baked bread, breakfast items and snacks. Upon check out, Anne's husband accompanied us to the train station and assisted us in purchasing tickets for the Puffing Billy, which made for a very rememberable day for our family. I would highly recommend staying at the Aura of the Dandenongs. Menzies Creek and all its surrounding areas are absolutely beautiful and we will definitely return one day for another long weekend.

Good

We stayed with Jiin and her husband at the Angelus Retreat in May 2014. They were very friendly and obliging. The cottage is in a beautiful setting, on a magnificent property. There were lovely walking paths, and a playground for the boys. Even though the weather was wet, we still had a lovely time, and the cottage was very warm and cosy (which was great for Queenslanders in Melbourne in May). We would certainly consider staying with Jiin again on another visit Thank you, Jiin.

We stayed at Jiins place for approx. 3 months and we had really a great time there. Jiin and her husband Ross are beautiful people! The place itself has everything you need, and more. You can have stunning views from Angelus Retreat, especially at sunset. We totally recommend this place! You should ask Jiin & Ross about their private cinema. They might invite you, if they have time.

Our hosts welcomed us warmly and also surprised us with a special movie treat. The cottage was beautifully prepared and stocked with all kinds of goodies and flowers! Any need or request was immediately addressed.

Jennifer's house was great, in a beautiful setting surrounded by trees and an easy drive to tourist spots in Olinda and Sassafras. We were there for a romantic getaway though, so made use of the chrome cast and smart TV (an excellent addition!) as well as the boardgames. Great for wines and cooking dinner and having a quiet few days away from Christmas madness. Jennifer was also super prompt in replying to my messages which was greatly appreciated. Thanks for a great getaway

This property has everything you need to enjoy Olinda. A well maintained home, excellent location and gorgeous view of the tree filled landscape. We loved it and will be back soon.

Great cozy place . Highly recommended for all who enjoy rainforest seclusion.

If Ikea wanted to set up a display room on the forest floor of Sherbrooke Forest, this is possibly what it would look like. Immaculate, essential and comfortable, this simple but satisfying bungalow is quiet and secluded, yet only minutes away from the cafes and shops of Olinda and close to many of the Dandenongs best known attractions. No doubt we'll be back there again.

A beautiful cabin in gorgeous surroundings. Our family loved our stay. It was quiet, comfortable & the kids loved feeding the birds & exploring the surroundings

We had a lovely time at Jen's place. Very beautiful location with great views. The place was tidy, but perhaps in need of a deep clean in some areas. Would happily stay again.

This place is so beautiful. Amazing location, so peaceful and majestic. The house is very well set up with everything you need. I love how it is styled. The shower is amazing and the beds are super comfortable. Jen was a great host. Highly recommend.

Pristine, modern and magical. Set in the lush forest and close to shops and local attractions. Can't wait to return.

This caravan is beautiful and such a great experience to stay in. Audrey is a great host and has set up the space wonderfully. We arrived on a really warm summers day and it was so nice to cool off in the spa and be surrounded by the beautiful Forrest. It was quite magical at night with the fairy lights, and the caravan was super comfortable, clean and luxurious. We absolutely loved our stay and will definitely be back and will recommend the place to all our friends. The town of Olinda is great to spend time in, and there are some great things to see in the area during the day. Highly rate this place, its amazing. We love poppy the caravan. Ash and marjolein.

Amazing location, such a peaceful stay - Audrey made us feel right at home, great way to escape the city for a weekend away.

This was one of the best Air Bnb's of all time. Such attention to detail and amazing private space. The hosts had everything set up so well and would recommend staying here 100%. We will be back.

The initial reaction upon viewing Poppy's vintage getaway through the advertised images was that it was spectacular yet it was actually breathtaking in person. The accommodation itself was spacious, comfortable and cosy. The hosts, Audrey and George, were easy to communicate with and always a phone call away if any assistance was required. Definitely the best accommodation the guest and I have stayed at thus far and would highly recommend it to those whom are interested without doubt. Thank you Audrey and George for allowing us to indulge in your little slice of heaven!

We were honoured to be Poppy's first guests. Audrey and George were great hosts and went out of their way to make sure we had everything we needed. We loved the uniqueness of this stay, the caravan is cute; all the details were lovely; the fridge was generously stocked; the spa was amazing and we had a relaxing and comfortable stay.

Stayed two nights at Poppy's and had an amazing time. We arrived to a warm and complete tour from Audrey and a bottle of champagne. Everything from the bed to the fire to the spa was perfect. Even in the cold weather we were more than comfortably warm. Perfect for an escape from the city or a romantic getaway.

Everything was absolutely amazing! Audrey was so lovely and so much thought and effort went into our stay. I can't say enough how wonderful it was. Everything was thought of, the spa was beautiful and Poppy was so romantic to stay it. Will definitely be back and can't wait to tell family and friends about it.

Amazing cozy caravan. The amenities were more than enough and the host truly thought of everything to make the stay the best it could be.

Cosy little cottage very close to main house. Beautiful lush garden and very nice little balcony.

Lovely, cute place with great amenities and a nice view. Very romantic and highly recommended.

Fantastic place, we really enjoyed our stay. Loved the spa with a view, and breakfast on the balcony.

Really great views!!!!!

An absolute delight!! Couldn't fault this airbnb in any way. Highly recommend for a romantic get away or just a place to rest your head in a quiet, picturesque location.

The cottage was a lovely place to stay at. The spa bath upstairs was a highlight and having cooking facilities was great too. The location is excellent, very close to all sights at Mt Dandenong. My partner and I stayed one night and it was a fantastic way to unwind and relax before heading back to work the following day.

This was an amazing place to stay for the night. Annie communicated fast, and the facilities were beautiful!

The surrounding area was so calm and lovely, I really enjoyed the scenery! The house was well furnished and the spa was excellent for a romantic bubble bath. Great way to escape the city to relax!

Rob's place is amazing, such a great property with so many interesting features and Rob is great at giving the tour and very helpful in providing travel advice. The grounds are incredible with a lovely pool and stunning views. Very clean and well kept. Would definitely come back again. Thanks Rob, legend! Jason & Kyung

Rob was a charming and friendly host. His home built in the 60s is a treasure trove of design features. The views are enthralling and if the weather is warm, the pool awaits. Rob was really helpful and lovely to chat with.

Rob is a larger than life character. The house is in a beautiful location and the room is very comfortable. Guests have their own bathroom and toilet. Rob was very accommodating, offering us breakfast and drinks, making us feel welcome.

Beautiful surrounds, magnificent views and amazing house. Looks like an architect designed home with many notable features and lovely lookout vantage points. Rob was hospitable, welcoming and friendly. The pool was a totally welcome reprieve on the 36 and 33 Degrees days we had there. Can't wait for a return trip there.

Great place! Nice, clean with amazing views. Rob was a great host and we really enjoyed talking with him.

Rob saved us last minute from an accommodation disaster. He was very welcoming and the place is cool...like a step back in time. Comfy bed and great shower. Great views over the pool. Thank you for the walking and cafe tips :)

Beautiful and quiet secluded property - unfortunately we didn't have much time to enjoy all the facilities as we were attending a wedding. Rob is a great host. Recommended.

Had an absolute ball staying at the Cupcake Caravan. The host Jilly is wonderful and very accommodating. It was a super hot day/night, the van was cool when we arrived and there were frozen zooper doopers waiting for us. Great location and an easy walk to nearby parks and shops. Highly recommend for a fun night away :)

A very affordable quaint little caravan in a secluded hideaway from the nearby towns. Easy to drive to and find! I recommend bringing all food and drink that doesn't require cooking, maybe just heating up in a microwave, we brought a roast chicken and snacks and wish we'd had a bottle of wine. Bring dvds or use the hosts! 10 min drive from 1000 steps and close drive to other nice walks plus Olinda and Belgrave. Would recommend this caravan as a home base for exploring those walks and towns, and the caravan itself is cute and simple :)

Beautiful, quaint and kitsch caravan secluded in the hills. I went up for a moment's solitude and was not disappointed. The Cupcake Caravan has a very homely and welcoming feel and the surroundings are just breathtaking. A welcome change to wake up among the misty hills as well.

The Cupcake Caravan is perfect for a weekend break from the city. It is located in a great spot in Olinda - a quick drive from the main village or an easy 20 min walk. We loved the little touches, Jilly has made the caravan a real delight to stay in, super cosy.

The host made us feel very welcome and the caravan is exactly what you would expect being a caravan. Jill has made it feel very warm and comfy. Would recomend bringing some aerogaurd haha

Staying at the cupcake caravan was exactly what I needed - a cosy, comfortable and self contained space in the forest. Jilly was a very accommodating host, particularly as I booked very late, and provided ongoing communication throughout. The caravan was neat and tidy, everything worked as mentioned (the shower is amazing, better than some in-house showers!), and Jilly provided some meal options and a lovely fresh sourdough loaf. If you want a quiet space in the beautiful Dandenong ranges, and love hearing the forest wildlife while lying in bed, this is the place to be. I hope to stay again one day!

An adorable little caravan, nice and secluded in a beautiful area. Small and cosy, good for a couple or single person.

One night in Olinda was not enough! Two or three in the cupcake caravan would be amazing, spending the days exploring and the nights relaxing. The views from Mt Dandenong (10 mins or so away) beautiful at night and there is so much to see, eat and do. The Caravan was perfect! The brekkie essentials were provided as well as linen and towels. We entered the air conditioned caravan and instantly felt at home! We can't wait to return for a longer visit!

We had a lovely stay at Zen health Cottage. Really friendly owners and mimi the cat was good company. The space had a warm cosy and loved feel about it. Great views out of the windows with loads of greenery to see. Victoria left us some goodies to eat like popcorn, and chocolate. More surprises in the fridge. I loved the outside area where you can sit in comfort to enjoy the sunshine with a nice glass of bubbly. Make sure you ask Victoria if she is free so you can book into a massage. Also go to Cloudhill gardens you will not be disappointed and book a table at the seasons restaurant for lunch. They do a good antipasto plate for two....actually 3 could eat with the amount of food offered. Thank you Wilson family for a friendly warm welcome and really nice to have met you. x

Great location. The place was very well equiped and close to town. The hosts were very hospitable and accommodating. When we arrived there were fresh eggs, bread, milk, fresh veges and strawberries in the fridge. We would highly recommend this place to anyone wanting to spend sometime in the Dandenong Ranges. A very special thank you to our hosts for making our stay very memorable.

Victoria made us feel very welcome, the environment was very relaxing, clean and all that was promised was provided to us. I would recommend anybody to stay at Zen .

Victoria's cottage was perfect for us and had everything we needed and more. Victoria was around if we needed and had some great food and walk recommendations - we didn't want to leave and certainly hope to visit again!

Staying here was an absolute treat- the space is perfectly set up with everything you could need. It is cosy, comfortable and clean, with great character. We especially appreciated the food goodies, the digital radio and of course Victoria's massage. We would not hesitate to recommend this accommodation to others.

I didn't want to leave this little sanctuary in the woods. It was just perfect - clean, cosy, private and the hosts Victoria and Robbie are fantastic people. Couldn't recommend this place more highly - we will be back!

Victoria was a wonderful host and the space was amazing! I was travelling for work and needed a place to relax at the end of long days, this was the perfect place. Victoria made everything so easy and I felt so comfortable during my stay. The chooks outside are delightful, Mimi the cat is gorgeous and the beautiful garden views from every window made this a lovely stay. Everything was clean, neat and beautifully presented with Victoria providing some fresh produce from her garden, fresh eggs and some delicious snacks. When she discovered I was travelling alone she even made me some home made pumpkin soup which was the best I have ever eaten. I cant wait to return, thanks so much Victoria. xxx

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Suzanne and Ron's home. The weather challenged us to remain indoors, but there was a great collection of books and movies to keep us entertained. Suzanne and Ron have decorated their home beautifully, with lots of quirky touches and well chosen pieces. The large windows look onto private lush gardens which encourage the birds. We would definitely stay again!

Wonderful welcoming home with eveything you could need. Luxurious bedrooms with very comfy beds. Floor to ceiling windows make you feel you are in amongst natural surrounds - very private. The complimentary supprises were much appreciated.

Suzanne & Ron's house is gorgeous, when our friends saw pictures of where we stayed we didn't want to let them know where it was so we could keep it all to ourselves! The place is amazing and Suzanne & Ron are extremely helpful with anything you may need during your stay :)

Great place... plenty of space, good communication... private from the street... 5 minute drive to the shops... Every facility you could ask for...

It was my uncle and aunt's first Airbnb experience. Truth be told they were pretty nervous, but I'm so glad that they loved Suz and Ron's place so much and cooked up a storm of mussels and pasta. Every window had a view and it was so lovely to just relax and soak in the company of family. We LOVED the couch and apple TV. :) Check in was such a breeze too. Thank you Suz and Ron!

The house and location was gorgeous with comfortable bed. They also left quite a few art supplies and other things for people to toy with. Perfect for weekend get away or a home base if you have a wedding on in the area. Also made for some excellent pre-wedding photos!

We absolutely loved the place. It was a WAW when we walked in and just perfect for our family Easter visit. Suzanne and Ron had been very fast in communication and very hospitable. They really made us feel like visiting a friend. We will definitely come back again when the time suits.

We had a lovely stay at Suzanne and Rons place in Olinda. What a beautiful little town with only a short walk to get to the main street which had some lovely shops and places to eat. We took a short drive to Puffin Billy with the children which was great. The house is set up with all the amenities that you need and suzanne and Ron were very prompt with communication. Thank you guys for a great weekend.

Jiin & Ross were so welcoming & lovely. They were great with our kids too. We felt so blessed to stay there. Their property is very beautiful with gorgeous views. The cottage was warm, cosy & comfortable with everything we needed to feel relaxed. Our boys 7 & 13 loved playing on the mezzanine level which is filled with cushions and beanbags. The location is perfect to fully explore the Dandenongs. We visited Emerald, Belgrave, Kallista, Sassafras & Olinda & enjoyed some of the most beautiful jaw dropping nature walks. It was just the getaway we all needed to recharge our batteries. We are very grateful we found Angelus Retreat. Highly recommended!

The Suite at Angelus is remarkable because of the care and attention to detail our hosts Jiin and Ross lovingly invested in their spectacular home. We were warmly greeted and made to feel welcome and special. The rooms suite are beautifully decorated clean, and very comfortable. I feel fortunate to have found Angelus and it will be my first choice when staying in this beautiful part of Australia. Thanks again to Jiin and Ross for their kindness.

房子和图片一样,非常干净漂亮,按照房东的说明,入住非常方便,屋内设施和用品齐全,甚至有不同品牌可选,厨房准备的食物超出预期。和房东的沟通也很顺利,任何疑问和要求都会很快答复,此次还为我家小朋友准备了各种玩具,小朋友玩的很开心。屋外的花园特别美,距离olinda镇中心很近,吃饭买东西也很方便,总之强烈推荐。

This was an absolute 5 star stay for us. The place was beautiful, had a really unique, quirky vibe and felt so homely. Jasna was amazing to deal with, keeping in touch regularly in the weeks leading up to our stay, even providing for our dietary needs (my husband and I are gluten intolerant) and leaving us a personal card and a gift of gorgeous honey from her own bees! We wish we could have stayed longer and wouldn't hesitate to book again one day. Definitely recommend Holly Cottage!

My partner and thoroughly enjoyed our stay , Jasna and her husband were lovely , and they're place was spotless and close to everything in town which was handy. There was everything there we could possibly need from food to Tv to the pool table , will definitely recommend it

What a beautiful 3 bedroom cottage on amazing grounds in the middle of everything! We walked to dinner and a cafe in the morning, street surrounded by gorgeous greenery. Jasna was an excellent host, had a 3 course breakfast with home grown vegies and amazing finishing touches throughout the home. We loved the pool table and the lounge room fire was perfect for a cold spring night. The photo's do not do it justice, it is very spacious and accommodating. We would love to stay again and it was a shame we only got 1 night. Thanks Jasna for your wonderful hospitality.

Amazing space, beautiful gardens, lovely view. Had the best stay there, great set-up. Thank you for an enjoyable weekend away!

A wonderful place to stay, very accomodating and welcoming. The food was excellent and fresh. We really can't thank you enough for making our stay so special in the lead up to my wedding. Thank you for my gift. You really have a beautiful place

Jasna was a great hostess she made us feel welcome from the moment we arrived. We all enjoyed a tour around there lovely garden and enjoyed meeting Jim and the two fur babies. The cupboard and fridge had quality local produce for us to use. The beds were sooooo comfortable we didn't want to get up this morning. Jasna also went out of her way to take us to the Cuckoo where we were celebrating my twins 21st. I would recommend this accommodation to anyone staying in Olinda. Kaye, Diane, Leonie and Karen

Jasna went over and above what we expected. There was a beautiful roaring fire going when we arrived, lots of fresh fruit and breakfast treats and the place was immaculate, warm and welcoming. We came for some R&R and it was the perfect getaway. I pretty much sat on her lovely chaise and read by the fire most of the weekend while my husband surfed the internet and watched movies (these were from her own collection which she graciously granted us access to). The place itself is very close to local shops and restaurants so eating good food is very accessible. The over the top extras were yummy chocolates provided in the lounge room, plentiful breakfast provisions, snacks and home cooked pancakes and cappuccinos on the day we left - wow, just wow! As a host Jasna was fantastic - giving us privacy but topping up the firewood, checking if we needed anything, as well as taking an interest in us as people. Highly recommended!

We had a lovely time at Cissy's place. It is very quiet with beautiful views. We enjoyed having a coffee on the deck overlooking the mountains. Cissy was very accommodating and helpful. There was plenty of room and the beds were very comfortable with lovely linen. Thank you Cissy we will definitely come back.

The property took our breath away upon arrival. Birds, flowers and that view! The house is spacious and very cozy. Cissy is a wonderful host. Highly recommended!

Great location; great view; spacious house. Had a great time! Thank you, Cissy.

Great views, very quiet and secluded. Very clean and tidy. Close drive to cafes and walks. We hope to be back.

This was a great stay! Perfect for my family of 7 to stay for the weekend. The extremely private property was perfect for us to have our own space but also homely enough for us to enjoy each other's company. Cissy provided everything we were after and it all felt like home.

A family group in Melbourne for a wedding, we had a great stay.

We had a lovely (EMAIL HIDDEN)munication prior to arriving was excellent. Her home is nestled up high, with stunning views through the tree tops of the ranges and valley below. The home was clean, tidy and overall well presented. We had a great time with a couple glasses of wine on a cold night in front of the fireplace. Highly recommend.

Perfectly cosy, with all the necessary amenities. Within walking distance to shops, cafes and restaurants in Olinda. Our stay was hassle-free and relaxing...just what we needed! Highly recommended!

Absolutely beautiful place. Sue went above and beyond to make our stay as wonderful as possible!

The house is lovely and cosy, impeccably clean and welcoming. We were in town for a funeral and Sue made us feel extremely welcome, she was very kind and made sure we were comfortable. The house is a gorgeous weatherboard renovated with all the comforts you need, comfortable beds, heating, bathtub, full kitchen and a stunning yard to relax in. It is very quiet yet a nice stroll to the local cafes, restaurants & shops. We will definitely stay again!

What gorgeous stay , was very sweet my family had a lovely time.

Sue's place was easy to access with given instructions. The place is a gorgeous open space house. A fantastic retreat for anyone wanting to stay in the area. The township of Olinda is about a 5 min walk away but the house is secluded and quiet. I would definitely recommend this place to anyone thinking about staying in the area.

We left wildflower cottage 3 days ago and are still reminiscing about the cosy cottage!! It was truly the best out of 5 airbnb we have stayed in for this trip to melbourne. Olinda is an awesome place to explore if you enjoy hiking and nature. The accessibility of wildflower cottage will allow you to do the above comfortably. Our kids loved the cottage as it was well equipped with toys suitable for kids of all ages. Our kids are 1,3,5 years old and they enjoyed playing with all the toys. The double beds are very comfortable and will guarantee and good night's sleep. Sue was extremely patient and communicated very well with us. Highly recommend this family friendly place to all!!

Sue's place was charming and comfortable. We were able to relax and slow down and just enjoy being in the property, but it was also conveniently located so we were able to get out and about and enjoy the outdoors.

We had a wonderful time. The house is gorgeous - spotless, cozy and has beautiful views from every window. The beds are really comfortable and have lovely linen. A well equipped kitchen, gas log fire and ducted heating make relaxing easy. It's such a short stroll into town. Sue is a fantastic host who takes great pride in how she prepares this gorgeous cottage for guests. We hadn't been to Olinda in years (decades!!) and loved reconnecting with this stunningly beautiful district.

Michael这位房东非常热情友好。他的房子收拾得很干净整齐,车子进去房子有一个鲜花道路入口,整个二层房子建在树林之中,感觉非常舒服。晚上我们睡了个好觉。房子距离丹顿农国家森林公园不远,Michael步行带我们进入公园,一路仔细叮嘱我们记住各路标。有机会还想入住Michael的房子。

Mike was a lovely friendly and respectful host who looked after us beautifully. We had a great room with balconies which felt as though you were in the trees and a very comfortable and large living area. Would recommend to anyone wanting a retreat in the hills.

Love visiting this B&B, second visit and planning many more! Mike and Cornelius are the loveliest hosts, the house and rooms are spacious and immaculate and everything is so comfortable, cooked breakfast is an excellent bonus and the central location in historic Olinda township cannot be beaten. It's such a gorgeous area to explore in all four seasons, so I'm already planning to return this Autumn and wouldn't dream of staying anywhere else! The perfect weekend getaway from Melbourne city!

Great place to stay and perfect location, close to all amenities. Mike was a very welcoming and hospitipal host.

Fantastic albeit short stay with Michael. Thanks for the warm welcome and easy and enjoyable visit!

Michael was a great host, we spoke on the phone prior to arriving to let him know what time we would arrive. He had the heaters on waiting for us as it was 2 degrees outside. He made us feel welcome and told us all about his residence then left us to our own devices. I travelled with my father and sister visiting family close by in the Yarra Valley. He makes a great scrambled eggs in the morning too!

Michael was welcoming and easy to deal with. The house was warm and cosy. It's a beautiful house with lots of room and privacy. Agreeing breakfast times was easy. Michael helped us with local information and was a friendly, warm and helpful host.
