Amazing Location

We had an amazing time at the property during our family Christmas getaway on Raymond Island. The views were absolutely breathtaking, and the house was spotless and well-maintained. The host was incredibly easy to communicate with, making the whole experience stress-free. If you’re traveling with kids, there’s no need to worry about them getting bored—the safe swimming waterfront is perfect for them. We’re already looking forward to returning next year and would highly recommend this place to any water-loving holidaymakers!

Amazing holiday getaway

This was the most amazing space, big enough to fit all your friends and super relaxing. We enjoyed a girls weekend. The amenities we’re fantastic and it was close walking distance to the ferry.

Peaceful paradise

A comfortable house with stunning views! There is a small but lovely beach just a couple of hundred metres up the road that is ideal for young children. Raymond Island is divine - safe, quiet, lots of wildlife to watch including koalas just a couple of houses up the road. Bring bikes if you can as it is a 2km easy walk from the ferry but the little legs in our group tired quickly. Would highly recommend Ginny’s Cafe in Paynesville for brunch.

Amazing sunset view and more

Fabulous place for walks, biking, fishing and paddle boarding - we watched our adult kids enjoying the water from the balcony. Local wildlife at the door; koala, swans, kangaroos and pelicans. Comfy beds and plenty of space. The internal stairs can be tricky so I’d keep this in mind if holidaying with anyone with mobility issues as kitchen and main living space is upstairs. We’d return here again.

Relaxing weekend

I was welcome to a warm home, the owner left the heater on for us for our welcome. Location was great. House was a perfect little home. The only thing I would recommend if anyone is doing any cooking to bring a sharp knife. It was quite hard to cut the meat with the knives. Other then that. Had a great weekend

Sit and watch the boats go by…

What a location! This house was a wonderful escape with an amazing deck to sit and relax. Raymond Island is a wonderful tranquil get away (although bring the mozzie spray!) there are koalas and kangaroos everywhere and it has a relaxed pace. The house was well equipped (the only thing missing was pegs) and the beds were comfy and showers great. The neighbours were thoughtful too!
