Relaxing short stay

Really enjoyed our stay in this comfortable and very clean house. Cape Paterson is a great area to explore - the house was a gentle 10 min walk to the beach, with parkland and playground very close by.

Perfect holiday break

We loved our stay at this property it was perfect for a family to relax and unwind in. Its comfortable and warm with a large kitchen/dining/lounge room. Loads of videos and books and caters well for children. It has a lovely, enclosed back yard with a great table and bbq for those outdoor meals. Close to the beach and Tavern it is in an ideal location, and we would definitely come back!

Great property for a quick break

Great property with a well stocked kitchen and comfortable. Karege deck with BBQ and enclosed backyard. 600m from beach. Only downside was there is no internet and mobile reception is very poor...intermittent at best. Would recommend.

Cape Paterson Getaway

This was our second time back at the property and once again thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Nicole was a pleasure to deal with and we would highly recommend this property.

Comfortable home near beaches and shops

Great house for us and 2 teenagers. Well set up kitchen and great to have games and lots of DVDs. Easy walk to the shops and main beaches. Bunk beds mattresses were a little hard. Needed a second fan for bedrooms for very hot days!

Excellent Property

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the Cape Escape. It was great being so close to the beach and a stones throw away from the park.This was great for our young kids. The house was lovely and spacious. Pity about the weather on one of the days. Nonetheless we made the most of our stay. Special thanks to Nicole for being so wonderful to deal with. We will definitely be back, hopefully sometime soon.

Be careful

Loved Cape Paterson and we loved staying at this property but be careful they will take your bond. We cleaned up after ourselves and even put out the bins to be collected... never again.. bad experience.
Response from VrboOwner on 22 Mar, 2020
Hi Brett, I'm sorry to hear your review. As discussed with your partner, we had to withhold the bond to cover our costs for additional cleaning and new sheets after the bed was left urinated on. This is our first time withholding the bond. Hopefully you have more pleasant experiences in the future. Nicole

Exceeded expectations

This property was perfect for 2 x adults and 4 big children. Upon arrival it was clean and organised and the living area and bedrooms exceeded images online. Backyard alfresco and kitchen was awesome, great second space. The kitchen and open plan living area fit all 6 of us at times and kitchen was really well equipped for families, dishwasher a bonus! Nicole and William were very quick to respond and accept booking. One toilet always a little challenge on these trips but when you’re out and about it really doesn’t matter. Excellent location and walking distance to nearby park and beach. No wifi but we always make that work on our little holidays if needed. Great value for money! Excellent host and property our 2 nights stay!
