Spectacular!

Spectacular! View! View! View! I couldn't get enough of the most beautiful views of the ocean from the stoep. The cottage is immaculate! All rooms are spacious and appliances are updated. There is more than enough seating in the living room and kitchen. The gate to the private beach couldn't unlock, but we climbed over it; didn't want to bother the host with this minor detail. We will definitely go back again and again! We logged onto the DStv with our own account, which was fine; we could enjoy the rugby. The only con is the hawkers on the beach and around the cottage.

Son-n-See 's response

Thank you so much for your wonderful review, Clinton! We love the breathtaking view as well! It’s great to hear that you found the cottage spacious and spotless. We are always ready to help and would have been happy to assist you with the gate lock. We’ve made sure the gate unlocks easily now. Son-n-See has a premium DStv package, so you won’t need to log into your own account. While hawkers can be an issue in Paternoster, Son-n-See is minimally affected by them. We look forward to welcoming you back!

Fantastic location and very well-equipped. Very comfortable stay.

Very sheltered stoep area from the winter chill. Good showers with lots of hot water. Everything worked well — you can tell that it is a much-loved holiday home.

Beautiful.

Brilliant choice for us, everything is perfect but there were people trying to sell us stuff all the time so if not for that it was perfect.

Great location let down by basic failings.

Son-n-See has one of the best location in Paternoster. Unfortunately, it's let down by a number of basic things. Firstly, the bed size. Every room is only a double bed. It is advertised as such, but we won't be back because It's just too small. Really needs to be larger at this price point. Secondly, the house was well-equipped with basic cutlery and pots and pans. however, the wine glasses were tiny and only had 4 of them for a 6 sleeper house. Small things like some wood for the braai were not there or even things like matches or lighter were missing, including dishwashing tablets. We had an issue that required us to call the website regarding the internet and also got a quick reply from the owners which was nice.

Son-n-See 's response

Dear Cuno,

We are sorry to hear you were not happy with some elements during your stay at Son-n-See. We want to assure you that the owners have taken note of your comments and appreciate the feedback. They are always looking at doing reasonable upgrades and certainly strive to make guests feel comfortable and at home in the house. The houses are self-catering and therefore things like firewood, etc. are not provided as standard practise and we do clearly inform all guests in our correspondence upon booking. We are happy to help with arranging these items or indicating where in the village you can buy items, but it is not a standard to provide this in most self-catering accommodations. The owners would like to assure you that they have noted your unhappiness and will look at what can be done to improve based on your recommendations. We hope to welcome you back to Paternoster in the future.
West Coast greetings,
The Team at Stay in Paternoster

The setting of the cottage must be the best in Paternoster. Very comfortable and well equipped.

Regrettably many maintenance and hygiene issues that could have been attended to before renting the property out. Nice touch that the owner personally contacted us. These issues did not spoil our stay whatsoever and we will return.

Great location with great sea views. Comfortable and easy access to surrounding restaurants and shops.

The owners could invest in a better quality and clean towels, and kitchen dish cloths. I was disgusted with the towels I received in my room. It was dirty and torn. This house is so popular therefore I cannot see why the owners cannot invest in better towels. The house owners in the Paternoster area could do more to assist the municipality to keep the beach clean. The beach was full of plastic, plastic bottles and broken glass.

Son-n-See 's response

Dear Mandy, thank you for taking the time to review the property. We are pleased you enjoyed the view and location. We are however very sorry that you had a bad experience with the old towels and dishcloths. We have instructed the management company to replace the towels and dishcloths. We are not sure how this happened as we endeavour to regularly replace towels and linen with high-quality towels from @Home. We have spoken to our cleaning staff to ensure they understand how important clean linen and towels are to guests. We value your feedback and look forward to welcoming you back to Paternoster & Son ‘n see you again soon. West coast Greetings, The Team @ Stay in Paternoster.

Ons was twee gesinne, elk met een kleuter.

Alhoewel Son-en-See lieflik geleë is met 'n onverbeterde uitsig, (mense is reg op die nuwe waterfront met heerlike restaurante), is ons baie teleurgesteld oor die skoonheid van die eenheid gewees. Daar was slegs bolangs afgevee. Daar was dik lae stof onder die banke en spinnerakke by gordynreelings, bedlampies ens.

We were two families, each with one toddler.

Although Son-en-See is beautifully located with an unimproved view, (people are right on the new waterfront with delicious restaurants), we were very disappointed with the beauty of the unit. There was only a top wipe. There were thick layers of dust under the sofas and cobwebs by curtain rails, bedside lamps etc.

Die mees ongelooflikste ligging.

Ons was daar vir net 2 nagte, maar almal wou langer bly. Het reeds begin om die beplanning te maak om weer terug te gaan. 3 slaapkamers met 4 badkamers. Regtig 'n baie baie spesiale plek.

Location excellent but service and cleanliness suspect

In short: a towel with a hole in it and one with what looks like a ketchup stain (blood??) was reported shortly after it was discovered. And the response from management? "We will inform the cleaners". No! On the positive side: the house is spacious and well furnished. There are plenty of bathrooms if you bring a bunch of grandkids.

Volledig toegerus met als wat ons nodig gehad het en die kamers is lekker ruim met genoeg badkamers vir groot gesin, maar die huis kort 'n goeie spring clean, dit was duidelik daar word net bolangs afgestof so nou en dan.

Lieflike plek met pragtige uitsig en alles wat jy nodig het.

Son-n-See is 'n lieflike plek vir 'n wegbreek naweek of vakansie! Dit het 'n ongelooflike uitsig en is toegerus met alles wat 'n mens nodig het. Een van die groot pluspunte, is dat elk van die drie kamers 'n en suite-badkamer het. Daar is selfs 'n addisionele gastebadkamer. Ook 'n heerlike huis vir winternaweek met 'n binnekaggel. Sal dit beslis aanbeveel.

Son-n-See is a lovely place for a weekend getaway or holiday! It has an incredible view and is equipped with everything one needs.

Would definitely recommend it.
