The Mornington Peninsula has long been a favourite destination for lazy beachside holidays that come with green hinterlands and wild ocean beaches on the side.
A game of golf on one of the 18 courses can also stretch into a post-game drink on a shady verandah, dinner in a fine restaurant and a night in a resort hotel right on the golf course.

Hidden along the hinterland roads are European-style country retreats, intimate hotels, cottages and charming B&B's. Peppers Moonah Links Resort is one of Australia's most unique leisure resorts, featuring luxury accommodation, two 18 hole championship golf courses and an endota spa.

Travel to Melbourne. Modern, chic and elegantly understated, The Westin Melbourne Hotel's dramatic staircase and light filled lobby overlooking the city square sets the tone for one of Australia's premier hotels.
