Loved the area.
Loved the area. Felt a very secluded part of the island, so we just loved that. Beautiful right on the beachfront. No road in front, completely relaxing, felt very different than other parts of the island.

We did the Hawkins Bay walk very steep need good fitness but the view was very rewarding once you reached the top. The Jetty is great both day and the lights are lovely at night time. We ate at the R & R hotel great meals beautiful fish tank and the service was great too. Also you must visit the Museum.

Picnic Bay is very quiet and peaceful. The jetty was busy with fishermen on the weekend but quiet otherwise. Not many food options and very few shops. I’m glad we had our car to travel over to other areas.

Picnic Bay is the quieter end of Magnetic Island with a lovely beach lots of birdlife and well cared for Mall area filled with shaded seating areas , magnificent Fig trees and a hotel which serves good food with bright cheerful service. There are other options for meals and more to be found in the other bay areas and the local bus service will take to all the beauty spots on the Island. If you want a relaxing holiday Picnic Bay is an excellent choice.MaureenAustralia - 10Scored 10

Rob and Jen were great hosts and the accommodation is well positioned close to the beach and cafes. There are plenty of nice walks from Picnic Point and a regular bus that runs all over the island. There are stinger nets on the beach and the waterfront is gorgeous. Tropical Palms has clean rooms with stove, fridge and microwave with aircon, tv and a covered pool and bbq. An affordable home away from home on this beautiful island.

More variety of shops needed eg. Mini mart. Very limited choice for dining ( particularly breakfast) One coffee shop very expensive for what you get. Picnic Bay foreshore is like a ghost town in the morningsMichelleAustralia

- 9.4Scored 9.4SuperbRated superb· 13 reviewsWe loved Turtle Cottage! Our highlight was to find two koalas in the tree in front of the house. The house itself is spacious and very comfortable. The kitchen fully equipped. There's also a big pattio in the garden, where we could relax and eat in the shade. We loved waking up to the sound of birds. It's just a short walk to Picnic Bay beach, which has a stinger net. This is also where the bus stops, so it's easy to travel to Nelly Bay or other parts of the island. The owners are very lovely and helpful.JuliaNetherlands
- 8.1Scored 8.1Very goodRated very good· 297 reviewsProbably one of the best budget accommodations in Australia : cleverly conceived, small but pleasant rooms in a lush garden with a sink, a very efficient fridge and a flat-screen TV. The shared bathroom, big common kitchen and comfy lounge are all conveniently close to the rooms. There's even a lovely dog which you can take out for a walk. The location is great, close to the jetty and the bus terminal. The bus even stops in front of the hotel if asked.Steven from BelgiumBelgium
- 8.0Scored 8.0Very goodRated very good· 4 reviewsThe large deck was exceptional, with plenty of comfortable seating, and the barbeque was a welcome feature. The beach and eating venues were in easy walking distance. Local wildlife was in abundance, with nightly visits from possums, and a koala visible in the trees across the road from the property. Kitchen crockery/cutlery was very adequate, and cooking facilities also adequate. The complimentary bag of ice came in handy.JohnAustralia

Beautiful quiet bay for beach walking. Small cafe Mama Roma did their best to create evening, alfresco ambience with a simple menu but good food. Only light traffic on nearby roads and a few minutes to Foodworks for any groceries and the ferry terminal at Nelly Bay for the trip home.LesAustralia

The resort is very good- close to the beach, walk to the hotel , a nice pool to cool off in, and a bbq area in a lovely garden . The beach is safe to swim at - great for all ages and plenty of trees for shade. We hired a car to explore the island- available here at the resort . We will definitely be back .JenniferAustralia
- 8.1Scored 8.1Very goodRated very good· 297 reviewsQuiet location Comfortable room King Louie (friendly dog) made sure we were always back safe and was just so cute. It’s really good to stay in Picnic Bay as it’s the start of the bus line so you can always get a seat on the bus. Make sure to bring food to the island as you’re a long way from the IGA (but there are some supplies for sale at the accommodation).MeganUnited Kingdom
