Human remains found on a Victorian beach have been confirmed as those of missing Melbourne mum Elisa Curry, more than a fortnight after she vanished from her family's holiday home.

In a brief statement on Monday, detectives confirmed the case of the missing 43-year-old was not being treated as suspicious "at this stage", but the investigation was ongoing.

Human remains found on Wednesday at a beach near Anglesea, seven kilometres from her Aireys Inlet holiday home, were identified as those of the avid runner, who would often jog distances of up to 40km.
The discovery comes 11 days after Melbourne mum Elisa Curry went missing 10km away.

A neighbour saw Ms Curry get into bed on the night of September 30, but she was missing when her husband and children returned the next day from AFL festivities in Melbourne.

Police conducted an extensive search by land, air and water for the missing woman but failed to find any trace as her family pleaded for her return.
