Sunny bayside neighbourhood gleaming with modern architecture. The apartment is located on the palm-lined path that hugs the Port Melbourne foreshore.

Our home exchange - places to go and things to do while staying in our home
Step out of the apartment and onto the beachfront. There are a variety of places to enjoy coffee, a glass of wine or a meal on nearby Bay St. A short 10 mins on the light rail and you will be in the centre of Melbourne. If you prefer to be active, you can hire bikes by the water with the city's bikeshare program. Ride to the city or ride along the beach path to St Kilda to the famous Luna Park, with Acland St and all its attractions. Melbourne is famous for its coffee, arts and live music. There are plenty of venues nearby to catch a show including the Espy (St Kilda) or Arts Centre (Southbank).
