The Best Airbnbs in Perth & Surrounds for a One-of-a-Kind Getaway

Here at Sitchu, we love our glam stays in luxe hotels as much as the next person, but there are times when something more intimate or home-like is just what you need—especially if you're staying for more than a few days.

If you're looking for unique holiday properties within driving (or walking) distance of Perth, we've scoured the south of the state to bring you our top picks of short-term stays and Airbnbs in Perth and its surrounds.

Upstairs, a loft bedroom with a queen-size bed leads to a balcony with a Victorian clawfoot bath, perfect for stargazing.
