    Internet conection was unstable. It didn't work as we wished.

    The receptionist was kind and gave us all the info that we needed. The location was good for us, close to the beach. Everything was nice and clean.

    Niche accommodation with Ambience, Serenity & Character

    As expected with most self contained accommodation you have to sign a declaration to be accountable in event of damage to property. Unregistered guests are not allowed. However such rules maintain ambience, serenity and character of niche accommodation for a relaxing holiday.

    Spacious, high ceiling, self-contained unit with all facilities to cook. Good internet connection, I had no issues. Comfortable bed and 2 ceiling fans as well as air-conditioning. Nelly Bay foreshore and beach is only metres away. Lots of cute wallabies on the rocks at Nelly Bay foreshore. Nearby bus stops take you towards Horseshoe Bay and Picnic Bay. Nice and quiet location, as I wanted, to relax and unwind.

    It is a little like stepping back to the 80's, but everything is very well maintained and clean. The hotel is a 15 min walk from the ferry terminal, and the beach out the front is close to the marina, but the water is warm and clear.

    You dont come to Magnetic Island to stay at the resort. You want to get out there. Nice clean rooms and facilities well maintained. Accommodating staff who help you adjust to island time. There is a bus and scooter stop close by.

    I was surprised that the bathroom didn't actually have a proper separation from the room. I lacked privacy when I used the toilet in the room.

    The resort is located very close to the beach, shops and few cafes and restaurant. Only 15 min walk from the ferry. There is a swimming pool and bbq area that you can use. There is a "play room" with the pool, books, games and you can also use the tennis court for free. We had to wait for the plane back home till the evening and we were able to use the common areas for the day and leave our bags in the reception, that was very helpful and kind!

    literally only bug I had was that one of the fans hanging from the ceiling ticked. such an easy fix though, I turned it off and used the AC instead.

    honestly loved everything, the lady at reception over the weekend was fabulous and helpful as well as Knowledgeable. pool was great, beach is so close. it’s also close to the ferry when you get off and close to the shops and some cafes. it was a wonderful stay all round.

    nothing - loved it all

    the property was clean, spacious and very comfortable, our room had a fully equipped kitchenette and nice bathroom. the location was beautiful, the resort itself was amazing surrounded by trees & plants, there was a swimming pool which was lovely. they accommodated for all even having animal statures around the resort and encouraging the children to join in the game of finding them all. they had a games room with lots of activities from pool, table tennis to crafts and books. they also had a laundry room which was clean and reasonably priced to use too. amazing location, really lovely property. the staff were extremely friendly and so helpful with giving us information about the island and the location. the resort is really close to the ferry and there is a bus stop right outside too. everything is in walking distance from the pharmacy, supermarket and lots of places to choose to eat from.
