city outskirts: Acacia Holiday Apartments

Lonely Planet Review

Set back from town on the Calder Hwy, these large self-contained one-, two- and three-bedroom units offer outstanding value for money if you're in a group or family. Apartments feature fully-equipped kitchens and lounges with free cable TV, and are arranged around a swimming pool and half-size tennis court.

Acacia's large apartments are great if you want somewhere roomy and inexpensive where you can self-cater. Each apartment has air-con and comfortable separate bedrooms. There's free BBQ facilities, laundry, a kids' playground and a recreation room with table tennis and billiards. The apartments are immaculately clean and a warm and friendly atmosphere pervades. Although not the most fashionable address in Mildura, Acacia's hosts more than make up for it with genuine old-fashioned hospitality.
