This is our 'home away from home'.

The Abbey is the only available motel/cottage accommodation on Raymond Island. It is inn a unique location amongst pleasant bush environment and close to the Koala habitat. There is no food or eating places on the island but the ferry service to and from Paynesville which excellent restaurants and cafes and IGa. The Abbey has charm and pleasant seclusion at a very reasonable price. There is tea and coffee and a fridge and microwave. It can be cold in Winter but has a heater. More blankets would be welcome. The bathroom and toilet has a shower and is good. There are warnings about a slippery floor but it needs attention. I do recommend staying on the island for a get away experience and easy access to the Koala Trail. I am glad that we chose The Abbey.

Fridge noisy Microwave not working Split System not good

Owner was super nice and helpful. Koalas on the property. A beautiful place... the best of 20

The acommodation was cute. TV was good which helped us to enjoy the night more.

Good location

A very high standard room in a lovely setting. We had problems communicating and received no check in instructions but this was rectified by a member of staff coming in to sort out. Kangaroos walked past the window and koalas, echidnas and exotic birds were nearby. There was also no wifi near the rooms, just by reception. However it was a very pleasant stay and deserves 5 stars.

Room was very clean, the layout of the furniture made it difficult to watch TV in the evening if we had wanted to. Curtain missing attachments to be fully closed.

Amazing location. Absolute tranquility. Room was basic but clean and tidy with basic kitchen items. Bed was comfortable too. All you can hear are the birds.

Great location for koala spotting

Nice place and old hotel

Property is quaint as described. The Koala walk indeed does provide many chances to see them in the trees above. There are lots of birds on the island as well.

Nice place

The Koala were simply amazing. The Abbey was a great place to stay - we were right in the middle of it. Wonderful.

We enjoyed a quiet stay in an older property which had everything we needed. Appreciated being allowed to charge our EV at the laundry block. It was fun catching the ferry over to the island and there was nice a sense of community. The koala trail in the morning was fantastic and unexpected - there are lots and I've never seen them in the "wild" before.

Very Clean unit. Basic amenities for kitchen and bathroom. Have to bring own shampoo and body soap. Lovely and quiet with nature all around.

Rooms are spacious and comfortable but a bit run down and dated. In one of our rooms we had a large number of moths flickering about, but when they were dealt with we enjoyed staying in the rooms. Each room has a fridge, coffee maker, coffee/tee and a small dining table and chairs. The surroundings were very dry (no rain for a while) so looked a bit run down as well, but this might be partly due to the drought. We saw plenty of kangaroos on the lawn and on the island and tons of Koalas and beautiful birds. All in all a nice experience.

No BBQ area or access to a kitchen

Quiet, comfortable and reasonably priced.
