Paterson Retreat is hard to beat
Spacious modern home with ample room for our 5 night family holiday. 10 adults and 2 teens easily accommodated with 2 x king beds, 2 x queen beds, 3 x bunk beds and 2 x couch beds, 4 toilets & 3 showers. Large kitchen with ample glasses, mugs, crockery, pots and pans etc. 12 seater dining table perfect for family meals, plenty of room in living spaces and great spa in back yard. Well positioned just 2km from San Remo shops and Phillip Island bridge. I highly recommend Paterson Retreat as a 5 star holiday home for large groups.

Home away from home
Such an amazing place! Clean, plenty of kitchenware and utensils for 16 people. Oldies had a blast, kids had a blast. Very spacious and never felt like we were in each other’s faces all the time. We even braved the cold and jumped into a very warm jacuzzi. I suggest locks on toilet and bathroom doors.. Bins were basically full upon arrival... but no bIf deal. However they need to stock up on dish soap and garbage liners… thankfully we had some.But overall such a pleasant stay and made use of the space. I would definitely come back here. Great for all year round.

Would not recomend
The house was not cleaned properly.
There was toothpaste and hair left in one of the sinks. Cobwebs everywhere out side. Could not sit on furniture outside due to dust and cobwebs. Only 1 wine glass but enough coffee cups for the whole street.
Cleaning products left in the bathroom. We payed $30 each extra for linnen but had to make our own beds on arrival.
The house was in a good location and very modern and roomy but the cleanliness definitely let it down. Would not recomend.

San Remo family gathering
Overall very good but for the price paid there were a few avoidable issues. The gas BBQ cylinder was empty. The coffee machine was filled with used pods.
