What a wonderful bed and breakfast in St. Kilda, only a couple of blocks from the beach. 28 Mary Street must be one of the most beautiful streets in Melbourne--many Victorian Filigree homes. It was so great to arrive, on a 33 degree summer day, into a beautifully air conditioned room. Catherine and Bob, your hosts, are very knowledgeable about... More

Catherine and her whole crew really took care of my 76 year-old mom for the 2 days before I arrived. Then Catherine was SUPER KIND to wait up until 1 a.m. to let me in when I arrived late from Tasmania. (I'm reluctant to write that down because I'm sure she'd rather not make a regular habit of welcoming guests... More

Situated in a quiet residential area in much sought-after Mary Street, this property has classic appeal combined with modern facilities. It is only a five minute-walk to the beachfront, the tram service into the heart of the city, taxi ranks, and some of St Kilda's fine dining establishments. During our four night stay we met three guests who stay there... More

I found the hosts to be very friendly and helpful. I arrived late and they were there to greet me upon arrival. I read a... More

Fountain Terrace has two small apartments on Fitzroy, just two blocks from their B&B ... they are available for those visitors who prefer self catering during a longer stay. Although big dinner parties are out (no table and chairs), why would you want to cook in St. Kilda? We had a wonderful time at this nicely appointed one bedroom unit... More

I stayed at Fountain Terrace for 6 days during the first week of the Australian Tennis Open in their only downstairs room, " Dorothea McKellar" (nbr 7). The room was clean and made every day. It had a nice flat screen TV (with the standard 5 channels, no Foxtel!) and a small fridge, which came in handy. The problems I... More
