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!

We had such an amazing stay on Magnetic Island, and couldn’t have asked for a better place. The property is absolutely beautiful and the pool is stunning. Catherine and David were the best hosts, so friendly and welcoming. Catherine gave us some incredible recommendations for things to do and made sure we had the best time while we were there, which we really appreciated. We’d definitely recommend staying here and would love to come back!

Accommodation was good, well equipped and comfy. Unfortunately for us it was raining without pause for 2 days while we were there, so we didn't enjoy the island as planned. A good thing for the tent is that it can endure really big amounts of water. Water was everywhere except in the tent. It has even created a small lake around the tent base, but tents are on an elevated wooden base, so everything was ok.

Didn't plan on staying in Nelly Bay as we love Arcadia, however the water views more than made up for it. So lovely to wake up to the view or eat dinner with the water spanning in front of you. Apartment also had boardgames, puzzles, cards. Great little kitchen for eating in and just enjoying the views and outdoor balcony area.
