The room itself was clean, comfortable and well-equipped for our stay. The pool was inviting and much enjoyed. The view was spectacular, but why simply look at the ocean when you can cross the street and walk beside it on a clean, beautiful, uncrowded beach where we encountered only sea birds and a few friendly fellow beach walkers? Wow what a great place to stay!

Great location! Just around the corner from the beach and bus stop. Restaurants and the island brewery are down the street. Beautiful setting and very nice, clean room with all the amenities. Wonderful check-in! Both welcoming and lots of information about the island and things to do and see. A quiet little gem of a place!

Loved the location. The bungalows were spacious and clean, the bed was comfortable. The room had everything we needed. The staff were lovely and friendly. The pool was great. It was a short walk to the beach and being able to hand feed the Rock wallabies was a special experience! They like carrots and Apple

There are spots on the island you can only access via 4WD so I would recommend hiring a car. I hired a scooter which was great and so good on fuel, however they are very slow going up hills and cant get you everywhere.

The location of Rod's unit is great for the Picnic Beach area. The beach, restaurants, and pub are a short walk away. The golf course in town is very nice too. We had a fun game with Rod one afternoon.

Easy access to bus transport to other parts of the island.

Easy access to bus transport to other parts of the island. Walks in the National Parks were interesting and ranged from easy to slightly challenging. These walks can take you to some beautiful beaches.

Magnetic Island is beautiful with bush trails to many beaches and vantage points. The flora is wonderfully diverse with giant banyan trees, tropical plants, vines and gum trees - wild koalas are easy to spot on some of the trails. The vibe is low key and nicely humble and it's very easy to get to via Townsville and a short ferry ride. You don't need a car as the bus runs regularly across the island to all the best places. There are also plenty of options for scooter and jeep hire.

Arcadia is a great place to visit and to stay on Magnetic Island. The main beach, which is part of the Nature reserve, is lovely to walk around and also to see Rock Wallabies in the early evening. Alma Bay is particularly good for young children, with plenty of shade and grassy areas in addition to a small It's only a short walk in the the main centre at Nelly Beach, the Ferry Terminal and a well stocked supermarket and bottle shop.

Picnic Bay was beautiful and quiet, very well maintained, one of the nicest bays on Magnetic Island to relax along the beach. The Picnic Bay Pub and restaurants were very good and had a beautiful cafe for coffee.

The town has all sorts of amenities that you would need.

The town has all sorts of amenities that you would need. It is central to the island, so getting to the other towns and areas from there is very easy. There is a huge range of types of accommodations you can get for your stay; from high end water front resort to container homes to hostels. Being where the ferry drops you off at, it is also nice to not have to carry your bags around too far!

Of all the beautiful bays at Magnetic Island, Horseshoe Bay...

Of all the beautiful bays at Magnetic Island, Horseshoe Bay is by far the nicest one. It has great open views of the ocean, a long beach front with beautiful palms and trees providing the necessary shade, and a small but lively little boulevard with a well-assorted local Convenience Store, a few nice beachy shops and a good range of bars and restaurants that offer something for everyone. I specially recommend Barefoot Restaurant and Gallery, which is something you might not expect on a location like this, but they have some beautiful artwork and their food is truly exceptional. All in all, Horseshoe Bay just has that nice chilled island vibe that you're looking for on your vacay.
