IMPORTANT INFORMATION - BOOKINGS FOR TWO ADULTS - WANTING TWO ROOMS -

The unit (or apartment) is 200 metres from over 50 shops, cafes and services (Banks, Post Office) two supermarkets are also within walking distance.

Two Bedroom - roomy Apartment - great location midway Geelong CBD - Deakin Waurn Ponds

Geelong Short Stays manage numerous apartments, Units & homes in the region and have renovated and fit out the apartment on the basis of this experience. Easy to look after, clean and light, energy efficient. Quieter than our CBD properties and with a little back yard.
Located in suburban Belmont just 200 metres off High Street, - with Coles and Aldi, Cafes, Winebars & specialty shops. The Belmont Hotel (Pub) is 162 metres, there is Malay, India and Chinese restaurants as well as pizza and pasta.
Deakin University has two Geelong Campus - Waurn Ponds 8 kilometres south west (about 10 minutes drive) - The Waterfront Campus is closer - less than 5 kilometres along High St & Moorabool Street (again about 10 - 12 Minutes).
Kardinia Park [Swimming Pool & Football Ground] is within walking distance across the River, or a 5 minute drive. Stay and see the "Cats" win (or not).
The River and Boatsheds are just 5 minutes walk so a perfect stay for school Rowing stays.
Mt Duneed Estate - both winery and concert venue {recently Fleetwood Mac and Elton John} is just past the Waurn Ponds Campus so 12 - 15 minutes away.

AIRSHOW - each Avalon Airshow our properties are booked earlier and earlier - this property can accommodate 4 adults (in separate beds - if arranged) and with the adjacent property we can manage 8 adults across two joining properties.

Barwon Health (University Hospital Geelong) main facility is on Ryrie, Bellarine and Myer Street, Geelong and is 5 Kilometres away. St John of God a fraction closer.

Long Stays - ideal longer stay property

We encourage stays of more than one night if possible by price incentive and at various times - depending on other bookings - offer large discounts on Longer Stays. The renovation has opened with 40 nights from referred guests from Belgium.
When enquiringly about longer stays please remember when calculating costs that you will have no utilities bills and the unit is fully furnished. (obviously!! but sometimes inquiries compare my sites to an annual rental of an empty flat and forget their Electricity and Gas bills).

Bookings for 1 person for multi weeks can be lower than displayed rates.

regular mid week bookings are met with discounts. (regular is more than 2 x 3 night stay!!)

Belmont is across the River from Geelong proper, Geelong is 1 hour from Melbourne by car or train to South Geelong Station.
The Gull Bus runs from Melbourne Airport to Geelong.

Garden back and front could do with a lot of maintenance. The unit could do with some detail in regards to vacuuming under beds.

Getaway
We were dissapointed in the property due to minor details that resulted in our 3 star rating. Firstly the back yard was very overgrown with Weeds and Spider Webs all over external door way and walls..Not sure if any cleaning.has been done for weeks out there..Very unacceptable..(took photos if u need to show your cleaners) there was also cobwebs in the bed room area and a hair was in the sheets.. The rangehood lights dont work so cooking in dark was a bit painful.the sink tap is loose and faulty.front security door doesn't lock..either...The rubbish bins were overfull ..on arrival..internally the house was clean and updated..which was a positive..location is good..these issues would have been easy to up keep .and fix...and your rating would.have been 5 out of 5..not to be.. cheers..
Stayed 4 nights in Jan 2024

About the host

Hosted by Jon Metrikas

Host profile image
I am a bit of a workaholic, I work in the Yarra Street Quartermasters in Yarra Street, Geelong (where you collect keys and pictured above) I have been running hospitality venues for over 25 years and have been with Stayz (Now HomeAway) for 6 years - I manage 25 Short Stay apartments and units - so if this one is booked - just ask about another.
about 1/3rd of our business is return regular business.
I have the best partner in the world and two fabulous well behaved kids.

Why they chose this property

We took on this property as it was ready for renovation and was smartly refurbished - the area is quiet and located to be close to the Uni, the Barwon River Valley and close enough to town to stay and just drive 5 minutes in.
The Geelong Football Ground is only 15 minutes walk or 3 - 5 minutes drive.

What makes this property unique

A small backyard adds amenity and a place to lie on the grass and relax.
much cheaper than staying closer to town.
Perfect for Events such as "Day on the Green" or Avalon Airshow
