Staying Here

Imagine Waking Up to the Bay

Frankston City is one of Melbourne's most accessible places to stay, close enough to the city to make it a convenient base, far enough from it to feel like a real getaway. Whether you're here for a weekend break, a family holiday or an extended stay, there's accommodation to suit every style and budget, from beachside apartments and serviced suites to holiday parks and self-contained villas.

Serviced apartments and hotels

Quest Frankston on the Bay is the ultimate premium choice. A contemporary 4-star apartment hotel just 200 metres from the beach and within walking distance of Frankston Arts Centre, Bayside Shopping Centre and the restaurant precinct. With 82 studios, one and two-bedroom serviced apartments, each is fully self-contained with kitchen, complimentary Wi-Fi, gym access and a sun terrace with BBQ.

Holiday parks

For families, caravanners and those who prefer a more relaxed outdoor base, Frankston City has two well-regarded holiday parks in Carrum Downs.

Frankston Holiday Park offers a range of accommodation from spa rooms to spacious holiday villas, with an outdoor swimming pool, BBQ facilities and an on-site café. This it's a popular choice for families exploring the region.

Carrum Downs Holiday Park offers powered caravan sites, motel rooms and self-contained options with a pool, BBQ area, community kitchen and a dedicated off-leash dog area.

Short-stay rentals

With over 250 Airbnb and short-stay options across Frankston City, there's no shortage of self-contained apartments, holiday houses and beachside retreats to choose from. Options range from affordable one-bedroom apartments close to the CBD to private coastal homes with sweeping bay views, ideal for couples, families and groups looking for something a little more personal.

Plan your stay

Frankston City's event calendar gives visitors plenty of reasons to time their trip. The summer season from November through to March is peak time, with the Frankston Street Art Festival, South Side Festival, outdoor cinema and foreshore events running across the warmer months. For a quieter stay with lower accommodation rates, the shoulder seasons of autumn and winter offer a more relaxed pace.
