Gippsland Lakes Escapes offers an extensive accommodation booking service for a range of quality waterfront villas, lake houses and cottages to B&B's on the Gippsland Lakes, most with private jetties. The locations are what make these accommodation choices so special, and are the essence of your escape.

What does Gippsland Lakes Escapes have that is so special? Local knowledge of the Paynesville, Raymond Island and surrounding areas, great accommodation and a love of the unique and interesting things in life which are all highlighted on the comprehensive website.

A Gippsland Lakes Escapes break can begin with a weekend, mid-week short break or a week to truly escape and relax, but once you have stayed you will return.

The seasons are all special, hot summer days tempered by a cool, lake breezes, autumn and winter months with crisp blue sky days and mild temperatures, and spring when the local animal and bird life from koalas to pelicans, sea-eagles to dolphins become even more prolific.

You can stay right on the water in the lake side village of Paynesville on the canals or relax on Raymond Island with absolute lake frontages or views.

Retreat to remote or exclusive spots, accessible only by a boat journey on the beautiful lakes that becomes part your escape experience, choose the escape elements that are special for you, and then let Gippsland Lakes Escapes do the rest.

To make that choice easier, information has been compiled on attractions and activities, which may make your stay more memorable.

The range of accommodation offers everything you need for a perfect escape, and the website gives you information pertaining to all the facilities and options the property has, even prices and availability calendar to plan your escape.

Once you are in to the website, planning your "lake break" is easy, but if you need the personal touch we are just a phone call away.

Whether you are after a luxury escape or a laid back experience on the water, we can find the accommodation and tariff that will suit your budget. Paynesville and Raymond Island are often referred to as "Simply Great and Simply Unique". The lakeside village of Paynesville is perfect for that "lake break" Relaxing on a waterfront deck with your own private jetty, is the lifestyle that most visitors experience, watching the boats parade back and forth. On Raymond Island the lifestyle is more relaxed with wildlife abounding, especially koalas which are resident inhabitants of most peoples trees on the Island. These two locations can become your base, and you can then head out and explore the region by car, boat, bike or foot.... the choice is yours. To Take a Lake Break has many different meanings, but it mostly means that you will experience the true essence of the Gippsland Lakes by taking some time out, and Gippsland lakes escapes can assist you with planning that experience.
