Mark Australia

Location, convenience to facilities. We saw a koala crossing road when walking home ftom dinner.

Emma Australia

The buffet breakfast has something to please everyone with a wide range of choices and eggs cooked to order. The location next to the ferry terminal, bus stop and the IGA supermarket is very convenient and an easy walk to Nelly Bay and Alma Bay restaurants and activities. There are nice views over the marina and up into the hills, and the apartment is clean and comfortable. When we arrived there was no TV in the master bedroom, but management quickly provided one on request.

Mrskinwig Australia

The location was right next to the ferry, pool was really nice and the room was beautiful, clean and had a great view. Definitely would stay again...

After a horrible accommodation experience on Magnetic Island where we had to leave the accomodation due to an absolutely atrocious room we made a very last minute booking at Peppers and the staff were only too helpful! They were super friendly, had our room cleaned straight away, we booked online and when we rocked up 10 minutes later we were able to get into our room almost straight away. They upgraded our room were so accommodating and happy to help with anything we needed. Highly recommend this place, so clean, tidy and amazing facilities.

Daisy Australia

Right from the beginning the staff were so unbelievably accommodating and lovely. The room was stunning and had superb views overlooking both the cyrstal clear pool and the marina. Waking up on sunrise in the big comfortable bed overlooking the marina was absolute magic. The coffee was delicious and was so enjoyed while relaxing on the balcony. It was an absolute pleasure and I can not wait to stay again.

Alexandra Australia

The breakfast gave you a good variety of food. I liked the resort was so close to buses and ferry. Thought the room was comfortable.
