Family-friendly vacation rentals in East Gippsland Shire

Beautiful place in a nice area. Amazing views from the master bedroom and bathroom, we were lucky to have clear skies. A great place to recharge surrounded by nature and wildlife. And great thanks again for accommodating the horse-riding on such short notice (we didn't know it was possible!). Kids loved it so much, best Christmas gift!

Gordon and Merillyn were wonderful hosts! Five stars no notes for this beautiful property. Gordon and Merillyn left detailed instructions for our arrival to Kalimna and carefully considered recommendations for our stay. They had prepared freshly baked bread, fresh fruit and provided chocolate for our Easter enjoyment. We also had many bird varieties visit the rainforest-esque back garden. Could not have asked for a better location for our Easter getaway - would recommend to all!!

My kids and I have enjoyed staying at Phil’s place numerous times. It’s perfect if the family don’t mind sharing an open plan room. It’s close to the beach and bike tracks which suits our needs. Will return!

A Perfect Winter Escape with Stunning Views! What a fantastic winter getaway for our group of eight! WenResting's waterfront views are even more breathtaking in person. The house is incredibly spacious and comfortable, easily accommodating our large group without feeling crowded. We loved the cozy living areas, and the reverse-cycle air conditioning was a blessing on the chilly evenings. The well-equipped kitchen had everything we needed, and having all the linen and towels provided was a thoughtful touch. Kellie was a brilliant host, friendly and communicative and made the entire check-in process effortless. The location is second to none. Being just a short, scenic stroll from the footbridge made exploring Lakes Entrance an absolute breeze. The spectacular views and warm, inviting atmosphere made our stay unforgettable. We wholeheartedly recommend WenResting for a memorable holiday. Thank you, Kellie!

We only had 1 night at this B&B (last night). Ling met us on arrival with an umbrella because it was absolutely pouring rain. Everything was nicely presented and once we turned the heating on we were nice and cosy and warm. Everything in the way of amenities was supplied. The continental breakfast was sufficient with lots of choices of cereal, toast and fruit and everything is dairy free so we enjoyed our first Oat Milk Cappuccino and really enjoyed it. Thanks for the pleasant stay Ling

We couldn't have picked a better place to spend a long weekend away from city. We really enjoyed the serenity and beauty of the place. The house is comfortable and clean, and very quiet for a good night sleep. We'll definitely recommend staying at Bernardine's place.

A lovely place to stay for a long weekend, or even longer. Close by to the main Merimbula beach, while only being a short walk to town. We didn't even end up driving anywhere once we got into Merimbula. Would gladly come back and stay here next time in the area.

Superb location, basically as close to the village as you can get, quite spacious

Scott's place was an absolute pleasure to stay at. Very cozy, quiet and peaceful, with a stunning night sky. The location was very good as it was a 15 minute drive to Merimbula and ideal for trips to Eden and Pambula. Scott was very helpful - for example, when we didn't have hot water, he worked for hours to get it fixed for us and we appreciated it a lot. We also loved playing with Francis the dog!! Would highly recommend this place.

I had an absolutely wonderful stay at Lucas’s place! The house is beautiful, offering the best views of Lakes Entrance — truly breathtaking. The rooms were spacious and very comfortable, making it easy to relax and unwind. Lucas was a fantastic host, friendly and attentive, ensuring everything was perfect throughout our visit. The house was spotlessly clean and well-maintained, with plenty of amenities to make the stay convenient and enjoyable. Highly recommend this spot for anyone looking to experience Lakes Entrance in Paynesville in style and comfort!

Beautiful cottage in a peaceful location. Will definitely stay again.

Great location to walk to most places. Very clean and welcoming. Highly recommend it

We had the most wonderful, relaxing stay – such a beautifully decorated cottage and the morning sunrises from the balcony, nestled among the sprawling garden, were just wonderful. So cosy, and the host was so kind and responsive, always there to assist with any issue. We would love to stay again some time.

Such a peaceful getaway in the beautiful Gippsland area! Thank you to Robyn for letting us relax and recuperate in your gorgeous cottage.

Thanks Annie for making your lovely historic home truely dog friendly and cosy. We had a great time exploring the Bega area. Great location.

We enjoyed this beautiful setting and Karen made us (and our doggo) feel very welcome. Gorgeous treetop and water views from bed and the deck. Comfy bed, spacious accommodation and everything we needed. We only stayed one night but would've loved a second.

This place offers a beautiful and quiet space where we can relax and enjoy the nature at its best. We can watch spectacular stars in the sky at night. Great walking areas around the location. There is no shops around and this was clearly mentioned by Luke well before we arrived. Thanks to him on this. We had a great time and sure will visit this place again.

We were only able to stay one night but really enjoyed our time there. The flat is the perfect size for a small family and was very clean. We would definitely stay again if we come back.

We had the most incredible stay at this cabin! The location is absolutely unbeatable — just steps from a stunning beach with crystal-clear water and golden sand. Waking up to the sound of the waves and having morning coffee with ocean views felt like a dream. The cabin itself was cozy with everything we needed for a comfortable and relaxing getaway. It felt private and peaceful, but still close enough to explore nearby cafes and attractions. Couldn’t have asked for a better beach escape — we can’t wait to come back!

100% worth the stay! very clean, quiet and exactly as it looks in the pics. Stayed with 2 kids and there was a lot of space to spread out. kids loved it and so did we! host was super friendly and exceptionally responsive.

The accommodation was lovely and perfect for our overnight stay. We didn’t get the chance to explore the site as we were only on a short overnight stay during a road trip. However, the site looked lovely and clean and tidy

We loved the beautiful night sky. No lights around-complete darkness. So gorgeous starry night.

Beautiful peaceful property on the edge of town with lots of outdoor space. Our kids loved the pool, cubby and fire pit! Beautiful beach just down the bush track. And the house is very well set up.

Colleen's place is great for families with dogs. Big TV, good internet, hot shower, and a brisk 8 minute walk to the beach, it was exactly what we wanted! And unlike some other listings, the house is *actually* dog friendly - if your dogs love sitting on the couch (like ours do), Colleen was perfectly happy to let us cover the couch with a couple spare sheets (which we brought ourselves). The only thing missing was a pantry - but we probably cook more than most visitors. Will definitely be back!
