The beaches are the worlds best kept secret. Quiet. Private. Ranelagh. Canadian Bay. Kunyung . Jacksons Road. No Crowds nor passing tourists. Lined with Victorian Boat Sheds. Good for snorkelling, fishing, swimming, sailing, bathing. A Wedding destination.Celebrity Spotting. Magnificent views to Melbourne's skyline. Mt Eliza is known as the Gateway to the Mornington Peninsula. Often compaered to the South of France. Famous for its wineries antigues cafes arts markets restaurants but why go any further than Mt Eliza. So close to all public transport. Excellent Cafes Restaurants Schools Boutique shops The best of both worlds the Country / the sea / the city

Mt Eliza is a lovely place, the Main Street shops and cafes are a great place to stroll around. It's close to Mornington and with the new Peninsula Link anywhere is accessible quickly.

Mount Eliza is a fantastic and safe place to raise a family. Mount Eliza borders Frankston South, another beautiful suburb with lovely people. There are only some minor pockets in Frankston that I would not recommend moving to, but these are generally on the opposite side of Frankston and do not border Mount Eliza directly. Mount Eliza is very green, near the beach, beautiful and safe, so is also most of Frankston.

Mt Eliza is basically a backwater to Frankston where the crime rate is excessive with less amenities the median prices in Frankston are actually higher than Mt Eliza.

What a load of rubbish. My Eliza is mostly family folk, Im fairly certain you dont live there. After researching the recent sale prices Im surprised they are quite affordable and a lot less than I thought theyd be

kyliem29, you must be from Frankston. What rubbish you speak. Mt Eliza is poles apart from Frankston. Your comment is like saying Brighton and Toorak are the same as Footscray.

Your comments clearly reflect yourself, and your standing in a community. Clearly you need to move away from the mirror and open your eyes and have a good look at yourself, your twisted mental health issue needs to be addressed. Seek some help!

Mt Eliza is a perfect place for you. Mount Eliza has a history of being the holiday destination for rich retirees. However, recently the demographic has shifted to more family focused and orientated. A lot of families are attracted to Mt Eliza's abundance of quality private schools, primary schools and new pre-schools. The beaches are also ideal for families to enjoy and sporting clubs and boating clubs are offered for children. The suburb is home to some of the most exclusive and elite areas in Melbourne/Mornington Peninsula with the Golden Mile and Ranelagh Estate. In fact, a property sold for in excess of $12 million recently in the area and other properties in Mt Eliza are worth more than that. Mt Eliza's large blocks with pools and tennis courts and large houses really provide an ideal lifestyle for families. Frankston is simply a nearby CBD with train station for commuters and extra shops if need be. Frankston South acts as a buffer between the two suburbs. Mornington is also on the other side of Mt Eliza and also offers extra amenities. Frankston has undergone extensive development in recent years and the demographic is certainly changing for the better. So there is nothing to worry about. Mt Eliza residents are generally very friendly, welcoming and open minded. As you would expect in a premium suburb.
