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.

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.

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.

Raymond Island is spectacular. The hotel is in a great location. However, the rooms need a can of paint to freshen them up and please get some comfortable beds. Not a good value for the price you are charging.

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.
