BEACHFRONT on The STRAND
10.0 out of 10, Exceptional, (31)
"The unit was spacious, clean and well equipped - I was especially impressed with provision, not only of coffee machine, but of enough capsules to last the two of us for 10 days. Also great central location on The Strand. Finally, host Andy communicated with us in a timely and helpful manner from start to finish. Overall, a great stay. Thanks Andy. "

1 Bright Point Apartment 2303
10.0 out of 10, Exceptional, (3)
"A great base from which to explore Magnetic Island. Easy to access the property from the ferry terminal and close to IGA, coffee, car hire etc. Four swimming pools and a spa (which thought there was just one so this was a bonus!). Shame there is no direct access to the harbour walk where the wallabies are (you have to walk all the way around - the apartments are highly fenced & secured). Tamara was great to deal with and the property was very clean, cool and bright. "

Great City Gem

The appliances were all easy to use, and had manuals if required. The air conditioning works very well & quick to cool the house down. Beds were comfortable. Our hosts were easy to communicate with & easily contactable when we needed to discuss anything. Overall, we loved our stay, would recommend...

At Strand Marina-Ground Floor with Courtyard
9.8 out of 10, Exceptional, (74)
"Great little unit in a gated complex Clean and tidy and in a great location Only down side was one parking space in a garage. We travelled with 2 cars but luckily, a kind neighbour let us park our second car in her spot. Bigger wagons/4x4 might struggle to fit in the garage. There are visitors spots available but never seen one free but can’t complain about the unit. Would definitely book again"

ISLAND ADVENTURE HOLIDAY HOUSE
9.8 out of 10, Exceptional, (67)
"This fantastic house was everything we hoped. Lots of space for 9 adults, two children under 6 years of age and 1 baby. The swimming pool was well used (although a bit chilly for us) and the tables on the upstairs veranda could easily fit us all. Amenities are as described but you will need to take all your own food requirements, cooking oil, paper towel, condiments, etc as well as laundry powder for the washing machine. We walked to the beach, the Maggie Island Brewery and had a very relaxing...
