Deal Attractions

An imposing mountain just three hours’ drive from Melbourne, Mt Buller is a paradise for snow bunnies with its rugged terrains, epic slopes and breathtaking natural beauty. At the heart of the mountain lies the charming European-style Mt Buller Village, home to luxurious hotels, bars, restaurants, day spas and quaint boutiques, making it a winter wonderland that enchants people of all ages.



Groupies beat the winter blues with a day of snowy fun, departing from the city and taking in breathtaking views of the Great Dividing Range, Yarra Valley and the towns of Yea and Mansfield on the way to the mountain. Once arriving at the wintery playground, adventurers take their pick from the many activities available, with ski-fans and snowboarders hitting the slopes, taking advantage of the rugged ridges, cliff drops and tree runs.

 

Mt Buller is a diverse ski field, with beginner slopes, intermediate runs and challenging black diamond runs for pros, all impeccably maintained at their powdery-fresh best thanks to the mountain’s dedicated snow grooming team. 



On the other hand, Phillip Island urges visitors to come hither with its astounding array of wildlife, including Australia’s largest fur seal colony, the little penguins and cuddly koalas. Located only 90 minutes from Melbourne, the island features spectacular coastal scenery, charming heritage and an abundance of friendly wildlife. Get up close and personal with koalas and kangaroos frolicking about in their natural habitats before joining the penguins at dusk as they emerge from the surf, fresh from a brief sojourn and hang sesh. 

After all that sightseeing, shopping seems almost mandatory. Fortunately, Melbourne is not short of fabulous shopping haunts. Just few minutes away from Hotel Sophia is Queen Victoria Market. A must-visit no matter what your aim is in Melbourne, this swap market has everything from inexpensive souvenirs to Alpaca sweaters.

If the market is still not enough to please your shopping desires, make your way to Melbourne Central where you can browse through book stores, buy Australian opals, have a nice cup of coffee, or fill your suitcase to the bursting point.
