About this property

The Loft - Waterfront with Pool and Private Jetty

Beautifully furnished waterfront accommodation on the canals in Paynesville. The Loft can accommodate 10 guests and is child friendly with the pool and canal being fully fenced with pool fencing and lockable child gates.

The afternoon sun in the winter warms the outdoor entertaining BBQ deck, whilst the glistening pool is ready for all to cool down in, in the summer months. Perfect for an all seasons family getaway. After mooring your boat on the private jetty, park your car in the garage, you can walk to Restaurants and shops from here, or cruise through the canals to the Paynesville foreshore on your boat, enjoy a Coffee or glass of Wine, explore the Gippsland Lakes, return to your Accommodation for a BBQ, put your feet up and enjoy the serenity! Now that's a holiday.

Wonderful Place to Stay
We would definitely stay here again. We loved it! Check in process was easy. Gippsland Escapes were very helpful and responded to questions straight away. The house was perfect. We had just the 4 of us but we could have gone with another family, as there was enough beds to sleep 10 people. The house had plenty of bathrooms and all amenities were provided i.e. towels, bedding etc. so we didn't need to bring anything other than ourselves. Great view with the house being on the canal. Disappointing the pool wasn't heated but the kids would have jumped in anyway, but it unfortunately wasn't clean, so wasn't usable. But we hired a boat and went out on the water one day, and went across to Raymond Island. We had a brilliant 4 days away and will definitely do this again hire this home again. Thanks for having us.

Household needs are facilitated,which made our stay more convenient and pleasant. The view is awesome. The only feedback is we struggled with hot water supply which took a while to heat up.

We all had a fabulous time at the Loft it was the perfect location for us as a group of women friends to catch up after a long and stressful fire season! Easy access to town plenty of room for us all and we very much enjoyed sitting out on the terrace and relaxing in the pool. Lovely and clean with good quality sheets, doonas and pillows, lots of bathrooms too! Thanks we highly recommend a stay here.

I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: we stayed four nights and were very happy at the loft. Clean and very well appointed. Spacious - we were a couple and two single adults. We had to replace the battery in the garage door remote. The Shire rubbish bin was extremely smelly nd the recycle bin was already overflowing. the gas wok burner was malfunctioning - these are minor quibbles but feedback nonetheless.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Not a good one. Complained about three to five years ago of water dripping down the inside of the back windows and was told they were aware of it.On the first two days had a lot of rain and it started dripping again down the inside of the property.My wife was outside looking around and when she came back in she slipped on the tiled floor where the water had dripped and hurt her knee and ankle.She spent the rest of the holiday on crutches.We couldn’t enjoy the rest of the holiday.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: As the six of us have stayed at The Loft two years ago and really enjoyed the location of the house we rebooked it for our 2023 getaway. Gippsland Lakes makes it very easy to book. Paynesville is a good location to stay as it is a good base to visit the attractions of Gippsland Lakes area.

Reviewer Comments: Beautiful spot - lovely house - very, very happy.House was very clean - EXCEPT underneath couch and couch cushions downstairs and upstairs (not sure cleaners have ever moved the couch to clean underneath as it was filthy) ... We have 2 kids and things are always being dropped down side of couch or under it, which is the reason we noticed.Other than that it was a great weekend away and would happily come back.

Great house!
Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was more than happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: It was a great house for our two families to stay with young children.Walking distance to town, we had great weather for a swim in the pool and we enjoyed having the boat on the water.However neither of the pool gates would close properly every time. And with a 1.5year old and 2 x 4year olds we had to stress about them getting into the pool or down to the water the whole time. Definitely needs some attention before an accident happens.

Paynesville short break
Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The house was almost perfect. The views from the top balcony or lower deck just superb. The full kitchen facilities and a dining table that could fit 10 guests with out feeling cramped made for great breakfast and dinner meals. Launching our kayaks directly into tge canals and feeling safe on our kayak across to Raymond island. The only negative was the beds were too soft but that's more towards personal preference rather than any fault.

Beautiful Location
Rating Details: The property manager was adequately helpful. The vacation rental was somewhat dirty. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The Loft is a spacious home with an amazing view . Very practical for a large family. Unfortunately we did struggle with the rubbish not enough outside bins for a large home. Generally the house was very clean but loads of daddy long legs in almost every corner of the inside of the home. Also in the past we have had a mid stay linen change but not this time. We have used Gippsland Escapes for over 13 years. Slightly disappointed especially with the price we paid.
