Apartment in North Ward
4.86 out of 5 average rating, 37 reviewsBeachside Serenity
Louise was a very responsive host, communication was excellent. The pod coffee machine was a fantastic touch and the bed was super comfortable. We were able to cook our own meals in the little kitchenette using the air fryer. Close to everything you need whilst on holiday. My only gripe which is not the fault of the host was the constant fire alarm testing and calls over the speaker to move cars with the first one at 6.30am, then at 7am and then testing on and off throughout the morning. Again not the fault of the host but just what comes with staying in a hotel complex.

Apartment in Arcadia
4.74 out of 5 average rating, 135 reviewsIsland Family Getaway @ Arcadia BIRD LOVERS ENJOY
The place was very close to the beach- an easy walk. It was quiet and private. There was a pool for swimming. It was on the bus route if you didn’t bring your car. They provided everything- all the linen, consumables such as shampoo soap and loo paper s well as games books and DVDs and info on magnetic island. The place was clean and fans and ac in all rooms. Hosts made us feel welcome and explained how to get there and how to access the place with clarity. Lots of birds wallabies and also we heard a koala but didn’t manage to spot it. Had a great time.

Home in Magnetic Island
4.78 out of 5 average rating, 94 reviewsSamsara Holiday House includes Wi-Fi
My husband & I have stayed on Magnetic Island many times & always love it -Eleanor’s beautiful home was new to us. So peaceful sitting on one of several balconies watching/listening to teeming wildlife in the surrounding National Park. The house itself is fabulous with a lovely ambience. Having had a minor accident (not in the house!) I needed to rest an ankle for a couple of days - being in such a lovely situation holiday was not spoiled as it was a pleasure to just chill out in the house. Eleanor was a perfect host and I wish to thank her for letting us stay at Samsara.

A beautiful and modern apartment with stunning views. All amenities were fantastic and we really enjoyed our stay. A cot was setup ready for our baby. Very minor note, the Wi-Fi across Bright Point is ok, but it can be unreliable, particularly in the evenings.

Angela and Shaun’s place was fantastic, as it was described. The location is perfect, by being a short trot to the strand; heaps of restaurants and a brilliant beach walk. Close to Castle Hill lookout for those sunrise and sunset viewings. The place was spotless on arrival and the check in and check out instructions were easy to follow. Angela and Shaun’s hospitality was very welcoming and the stay was amazing. Thank you Angela and Shaun!
