Posted on the July 29th, 2010 under Words Apart by muhibudi

Melbourne is Australia’s second largest metropolis. It is the city never sleeps and it boasts of an exhilarating nightlife, stunning views of the city, a paradise for food lovers and a great place to shop. Melbourne has a diverse variety of accommodation like boutique hotels and holiday apartments. But Melbourne serviced apartments are a class apart. These serviced apartments are also offered on short term rentals. You can enjoy your time and business in Melbourne without worrying much about the usual chores of the day to day life.

Whether you are on a business trip or with a group for an expended period, it is always a welcome to have a space that belongs to you, where you can cook your own meals or whip up a coffee. Opting for short term rentals turns into a blessing in disguise when you don’t have to pay $20 for cup of coffee or tea at a café and a kitchen is especially a necessity for families. The Melbourne serviced apartments offer this convenience.

The Melbourne serviced apartments are stylish and they are the most popular choice as far as short term stay is concerned. There are numerous apartments for short term rentals in Melbourne, but when you are choosing accommodation, bear in mind a few points: tt is always a wise idea to choose an apartment that is closer to your business establishment, but apartments that are in the Southbank area have views of the Yarra River and are perhaps the most fashionable and sought after.

The Melbourne serviced apartments  have and are everything you could wish for. They are comparable to any 3 star hotel rooms. They are ultimate in home away from home living. The Melbourne serviced apartments come in various sizes, there are studio apartments and apartments that have 1, 2, 3, and at times even up to 4 bedrooms and a fully equipped kitchen. They also have laundry that includes dishwasher, washing machine and dryer. Some of the Melbourne serviced apartments come in complexes having gym and swimming pool facilities. You can even find basketball or tennis courts.

The practice of taking the fully furnished apartments on short term rentals was once the domain of the business executives who were temporarily relocating. However, this is also spreading amongst the travelers who are in the city only for leisure. It also makes sense to opt for the apartments on short term rentals when the hotel prices go up during the peak tourist season.

Renting a well equipped place in the correct location is an important task. You must conduct a lot of research as there are numerous listings on the internet. The only word for the whole exercise is – proceed with caution. The majority of the agencies of the Melbourne serviced apartments require you to pay a month’s rent in advance. The cancellation penalties can be stringent. Therefore before you start searching for the apartments on short term rentals, identify the points that could make or mar your trip or business opportunity. Basically you need to have a sense of adventure mixed with flexibility.

Apartment living = freedom.

Balconies. Sublime.

Community events to socialize and spot the neighborhood hotties.

Dinner parties with neighbors and friends. No place like an apartment to find your inner Rachel Ray … or Emeril … or just nuke a Hot Pocket and kick back on the couch.

Extreme apartment makeover? Chose your own style, décor and feng shui that puppy.

Fact — you can (and should!) protect your stuff with renter’s insurance.

Gotta get some exercise? Hit they gym. It’s right downstairs.

Have a drink. Invite some friends. Hang out.

If it’s broke … not your problem! Maintenance will fix it.

Just a hop, skip and jump away from shopping centers, restaurants and of course “Targét”.

Kitchen with a fully-stocked snack cabinet? Heaven.

Laundry services? Convenient in your place or, if you share a laundry room, hide those skidmarks!

Many apartment communities are pet friendly. Bring a pooper scooper and you’re golden.

Nightly summer BBQ with fun-loving gang from upstairs and down the hall. Dogs are on!

One night stands in the privacy of your apartment? Aweeeesome.

Pool, fitness center, complimentary breakfast and tennis courts. Plenty of apartments offer these great

services. Find one!

Quality movie nights, TV show fan club groups and board games (no shame in “Taboo”). Be a kid.

Rock star parking directly in front of your building.

Sex. Fact: Apartment dwellers get it on more. Did we mention sex?

Trash pick up at your door or just down the hall ….take the smell outside!

Use your space as a fitness factory. Grab those free weights and sweat to the oldies in privacy.

Visitors welcome 24/7-or not. It’s your place, your rules.

Wireless internet signals picked up from your neighbors. They’re clueless.

Xebec is an actual word that starts with X. We could have gone with x-ray or xylophone but everyone does that.

You can walk around naked and no one will ever know. Remember, blinds closed please.

Zzzzz…in your own bedroom, complete with an attached bathroom and walk-in closet. YES!
