Parkdale Beach was a great find for us, thanks to our friend who lives in a nearby suburb. It’s a bit of a drive from the city centre, 23 km south-east, but if you’re looking to get away from the crowds of St Kilda it’s a great place to relax and swim with the kids.

The water was again clean and calm and with the shallow bars you could walk quite a ways out. It’s best to stay on the shallower bars and clear of the rocks and reefs area.

Whilst there don’t miss having breakfast or brunch at Parkdale Beach Cafe + Kiosk which is right on the beach. With it’s outdoor deck you can watch the kids play on the grass, and the food and coffee was really good.

Next Hotel Melbourne, Curio Collection by Hilton

10/10 Excellent

"From arrival to departure, my experience at Next Hotel Melbourne was absolutely top-notch. The location couldn’t be better: it’s central, walkable to fashion, food, and city sights, making it perfect whether I was sightseeing or just wandering around the city. Next Hotel Melbourne offers refined comfort, excellent service and a prime location — a perfect choice if you want to experience Melbourne’s CBD with a touch of luxury. I wouldn’t hesitate to stay there again or recommend it to anyone."

Hyatt Centric Melbourne

10/10 Excellent

"I may have already rated this hotel, but it’s worth repeating. We absolutely loved our stay at the Hyatt Centric — the service was outstanding, and the hotel itself was comfortable, stylish, and exactly what we were looking for. We didn’t opt for the included breakfast, and eco-friendly features weren’t a priority for us, so I didn’t comment on those aspects. What mattered most was the overall experience, and on that front, the Hyatt Centric delivered beautifully. We’ll happily return for another stay. My only wish is that the price could be a little lower — but even so, it was a fantastic experience."
