Short-Term Rental Insights for Victoria

Victoria blends high year-round business/leisure demand in Melbourne with strong summer coastal stays in Geelong and along the bay. Expect spikes around January’s events calendar (Australian Open, school holidays) and steady conference trade the rest of the year. Two-bed apartments and well-styled terraces close to tram/train lines perform best; parking and air-con meaningfully lift conversion.

Peak demand in January (summer holidays & Australian Open). Solid spring shoulder Sep–Nov with festivals and events; cooler winter months benefit from business travel and weekend city breaks.
