Perth is one of the most remote cities in the world, but a visit here allows you to enjoy all that Australia has to offer, from vineyards and wildlife to beaches and natural beauty. Stroll by Swan River and ride bicycles around the famous Kings Park, visit the popular beaches along the coast or plan a trip to Kalamunda National Park. Short-term rentals are not only affordable but also make for a great base from which to explore a destination, especially when traveling with family.

With Western Australia rich in mineral resources, St. George’s Terrace in central business district is home to several mining offices. Business travelers are also always on the lookout for comfortable accommodations in the city, and short-term rentals are a great alternative to characterless hotels. Scroll for the best short-term rentals in Perth, Australia, that will appeal to business and leisure travelers alike.

We handpicked these listings carefully, considering (wherever possible) host status, recent guest reviews, location, accommodation type, prices, decor, availability of dates, and short-term stay rules and regulations. The image galleries get refreshed with the latest updates regularly. They were last updated on April 13, 2024.
