1. Sunny garden apartment (from USD 77)

Opened in October 1960, the Chadstone Shopping Centre marked the transformation of Australia shopping from strip-mall precincts to mall-type centers. How big is it? It now houses a mind-boggling 530 stores, 9300 parking lots, four major department stores, three supermarkets, two office towers and two food courts. What this means is that Airbnb accommodations nearby, such as this sunny garden apartment about a five-minutes drive away, can enjoy the convenience provided by this amazing shopping center. A great bonus to what is already a well-equipped residence, with a gorgeous courtyard garden, undercover parking and TV with DVDs!

4. Classy, brand new family home (from USD 161)

This is a brand new townhouse in a leafy, family-friendly part of the Chadstone suburb, and it can accommodate up to seven guests. It is a great option for large families, and the hosts can even provide a portable cot, high chair and stroller if required. Check out its spacious and classy living room, decked with plush sofas and polished floorboards, with a stylish adjoining kitchen to boot. Concertina glass doors open out to an outdoor deck with gas BBQ grill and private backyard for great relaxation. With three bedrooms and five snug beds, you could almost be tempted to just stay in and laze all day. Not a good idea, as you will be missing out on the parks, playgrounds and bowling alley nearby.

8. Comfortable, convenient townhouse

The Chadstone suburb lies about a 20-minute drive southeast from downtown Melbourne. A largely residential area, its biggest claim to fame is probably its huge shopping center, which is believed to be the biggest in the whole of Australia. Heaven for shopaholics! The Airbnb accommodations around here are usually clean and spacious, such as this cozy townhouse in the adjacent suburb of Ashburton that can host up to eight guests and has a free underground car park on the premises. Besides the usual amenities like TV and kitchen, you will also enjoy great convenience, with bus stops right outside its front gate, and a train station, supermarkets as well as eateries within a 10-minute walk away.

9. Comfy, no-frills guestroom

So even if you are based in accommodations in Chadstone such as this no-frills guestroom along a quiet side street, it is well worth the effort to make your way to these character-filled areas and experience the unique charm of life in Melbourne. This guestroom is great for solo travelers, with a king-size bed, built-in wardrobe and shared areas like kitchen, courtyard and laundry room.

10. Modern apartment close to train station

Downtown Melbourne exudes character unlike any other major city in the world. Here is where towering skyscrapers exist alongside Victorian-era buildings, where cultural venues lie side by side with world-class sports stadiums, and where old-fashioned trams lumber past hip avenues that conceal atmospheric eateries and pubs within their side lanes. It is a treasure trove for travelers, and even if you are based in the suburbs, you can easily reach the city center via the suburban trains. This apartment with chic, modern decor has free parking and lift access, and is a mere five-minute walk from the train station, making it a favorable location to base yourself for trips downtown.
