We travelled to Paynesville for a romantic weekend away. The apartments are very basic but clean (although the upstairs windows had not been cleaned at all) and the furniture was functional if a little dated. The view was fantastic, right on the water, and there is a lovely little deck upstairs and down, from which to enjoy the view. Not... More

Our first visit to Paynesville and Captains Cove. We booked a midweek deal (3 nights for the price of 2) so it worked out to $160 per night for our 3 bedroom apartment. The venue is fantastic and within walking distance to Paynesville village. The apartment was very clean and fully equipped. Even though it was school holidays and there... More
