Loved the location, absolutely stunning. The view from the bed made me want to spend the entire time in my cabin. Though the facilities are super fun.

Fantastic motel and great for families/friend groups. We were a group of 8 staying in two family rooms, which was more than enough space. Pleasantly surprised about the ocean view from balcony, and staff were super accommodating. Would definitely recommend!

It completley exceeded our expectations. We got there at around 11 p.m. and we could easily get into our tent thanks to Barb's instructions. The tent was really beautiful, clean and well organized. We really enjoyed our stay there and would definitely go back if we happen to be around Magnetic Island again.

Great location - kids playground right outside which was ideal for allowing parents to relax/get organised at the house whilst kids were playing. Bus stop right outside very handy too. Easy walk along the beach to Nomads for sundowner drinks! Layout of the house was also great for 2 families with all bedrooms upstairs - very easy having 4 kids sleep in the queen double bunk room too. Being right next to one of the main island wallaby hang outs was also a highlight for the kids and enabled easy morning and evening feeding sessions!

Very close to the Ferry Terminal. Accessible to catch buses to travel around the Island and it was a very quiet spot.

    Right on the beach at Nelly bay, the facilities are awesome with the pool, bar and restaurant central to everything. The bus stop is just across the road, which gets you to all the best spots on the island.
