It was clean, tidy, well equipped and comfortable. We enjoyed the pool and the deck and it was just minutes from the ferry and supermarket , a very convenient location. The owner was easy to contact and quick to respond.

This was a lovely little studio with fully equipped kitchenette. The patio had table/chairs and was a good place to watch the local birds. While the double bed was a little small for us, the couch was effectively a single bed and very comfortable. The location was close to both walking tracks and great restaurants. We had a very comfortable stay!

    A great location for visiting Magnetic Island.

    A great location for visiting Magnetic Island. Bakery was a gem and the cafe opposite the accommodation. The island bus was excellent costing $1 for travelling on it more than once during the day. Lots of great scenic walks.

    Magnetic Island is beautiful with bush trails to many beaches and vantage points. The flora is wonderfully diverse with giant banyan trees, tropical plants, vines and gum trees - wild koalas are easy to spot on some of the trails. The vibe is low key and nicely humble and it's very easy to get to via Townsville and a short ferry ride. You don't need a car as the bus runs regularly across the island to all the best places. There are also plenty of options for scooter and jeep hire.

    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.

    By taking our car over on the barge we could travel around the island to the different beaches. It has some lovely places to see, some can only be accessed by car. The bus service appeared popular with people to get around the main three bays on the island. Great relaxing holiday destination.

    Nelly Bay is a beautiful, low-key, welcoming and relaxing place. Walking along the path through the marina was a favourite. We loved running and walking along the Gabul pathway with the view of Geoffory Bay at the top. Cafe Del Sol has amazing coffee and great, relaxed atmosphere - a great way to start the day. Buses were the best way to get around the island.

    Of all the beautiful bays at Magnetic Island, Horseshoe Bay...

    Of all the beautiful bays at Magnetic Island, Horseshoe Bay is by far the nicest one. It has great open views of the ocean, a long beach front with beautiful palms and trees providing the necessary shade, and a small but lively little boulevard with a well-assorted local Convenience Store, a few nice beachy shops and a good range of bars and restaurants that offer something for everyone. I specially recommend Barefoot Restaurant and Gallery, which is something you might not expect on a location like this, but they have some beautiful artwork and their food is truly exceptional. All in all, Horseshoe Bay just has that nice chilled island vibe that you're looking for on your vacay.

    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.

    The motel is well situated next to the pub for meals. You can walk to the beach. Great local busses. Plenty excursions if you want them. Motel not five star but clean and not to expensive and you are on Magnetic island it’s like going back in time. Paradise.

    We love all of Magnetic Island.

    We love all of Magnetic Island. Go to the toad races, Alma is the best beach to swim in. Eat at Thai again. Do the jet skis. Do a snorkel boat tour. Eat the crepes. SOS is great. IGA has everything you'll need. Sadly the scooters have changed brands and are no longer reliable, hopefully that changes. Magnetic taxis are great and reliable and the buses are easy. Go to the helped, there's heaps of rock wallabies there, take them some carrots and they'll eat them from your hand. They will let you pat them while eating. The pool at peppers is the best! Horseshoe Bay paddle boards and kayaks are a wonderful hour on the water. The owner is a great guy. The Sunday market is tired though and needs more stalls. The golf is great at picnic bay and barefoot social bowls on Tuesday is fun for all the family. If you want a beautiful relaxing holiday Go Magnetic Island. Recommend May to September.

    Horseshoe Bay is at the northern end of Magnetic Island.

    Horseshoe Bay is at the northern end of Magnetic Island. It’s not as windy as some of the other bays. And it’s a good spot to do walks from, like the Forts Walk. There is a long stretch of beach to walk on and explore. And lots of water activities to enjoy.
