02 — Our story

Hosted for the long stay, the big moment, and the quiet one too.

EMU Lodge is a small collection of host-managed stays in Sunbury, created for guests who want a more personal alternative to a platform-only booking. You can ask questions before you commit, get clear answers about the right space for your group, and deal directly with the host.

The Racecourse Estate is made for larger groups and special weekends. Belleview offers two options at Belleview Drive area: a larger hilltop main house with city views, or a private self-contained studio with two queen beds. Each stay is set up with the essentials guests actually use — soft linen, reliable Wi-Fi, practical kitchens, and easy self check-in.

Whether you are planning a family gathering, a work trip, or a quiet few nights away, the goal is simple: make the stay easy before you arrive and comfortable once you are there.

"Ask about the property, dates, group size, or add-ons before you book — direct enquiries are welcome." — EMU Lodge hosting note

"The garden is something else — it gave our whole group space to gather, relax, and enjoy the weekend."

Sarah & David Group stay · March 2026

"Five bedrooms felt indulgent for the eight of us. The upstairs rumpus was a hit with the kids."

The Nguyen family Family stay · 2025

"Quiet, comfortable, and easy to access — exactly what I needed for a short work stay."
