Location was great, beds were comfy, facilities were beyond what we expected. Best thing was the owner- super nice and helped out whatever was needed- gave a full rundown on what to do on the island during our stay which was super helpful!

A great place to stay in Magnetic Island!! The kitchen was well equipped and the place had the perfect cosy vibe. The hosts were lovely and allowed us to leave our bags there on check out so we could go and explore. We had a great stay here and would 100% recommend!!

The facilities at the complex are great, but it was little touches (i.e. board games, soft throw blankets, and more) they provide in this apartment that made our stay even more lovely and they were appreciated by the entire family. The kids loved the place. I can advise that the bed in the master bedroom is ridiculously comfortable! and the kids said their beds were comfy too.

Good location, great host and amazing breakfast!
Kitchen is a good size and ample verandah
Magnetic Island is still an affordable place for a getaway.
Magnetic Island is still an affordable place for a getaway. Just need to be mindful of the stinger season and where you choose to swim. Horseshoe Bay and Picnic bay offer stinger nets. Alma Bay has great facilities and close to Arcadia pub.

Arcadia is a little quieter and less touristy than the popular Horseshoe Bay. Alma Bay is a beautiful place to swim, with natural protection from stingers. Alma Bay is easily within walking distance from Arcadia. There are a couple of great convenience stores. The ferry terminal is minutes away.

The folks running the motel were super friendly and helpful and tried to accommodate us as best as they could - letting us check in slightly early and check out slightly late, which was very much appreciated.
The aircon could've been a bit better, but was fine in the end.
All in all a very enjoyable stay, and a perfect location to explore from, would definitely stay there again.

Arcadia is the best bay on Magnetic island.
Arcadia is the best bay on Magnetic island. Walk along Geoffrey Bay, head out to the old jetty and feed the rock wallabies. Swim in Alma Bay, snorkle around the rocks or jump off Bums rock at high tide. Lounge on the terraced lawn sweeping down to the beach in the shade ( if swimming is not your thing), cook your own BBQ or head over to the Pub for lunch and a swim in their pool. head up to the Waterfall pools, or hike to Nelly. Walk or bus tothe other Bays. Look out for the Koalas and wandering Curlews and Echidnas that call Arcadia home.
Magnautical Cottage is comfy, cosy, quaint and close to Alma Bay beach - which is great. We loved the house as we don't like staying those modern concrete shoeboxes that seem to dominate the rental market these days. Nice gardens and sitting on the front porch in the wooden rocking chairs for Fives is a treat. Just across the road is the Arcadia corner store which has an amazing selection of high quality food stuffs and even pre-cooked meals for sale. Nice walking in the area. Bus stops right outside too.
The location was fabulous, very easy walking distance to Nelly Bay, Arcadia, Geoffrey Bay, Alma Bay and a convenience store and café right across the road. House was very comfortable and heaps of room for the dog in the fully enclosed yard. You even get a small glimpse of the water from the front deck. The spotlights on the national park hill at the back were beautiful. Wonderful array of books to read, movies to watch and games to play.
The apartment had everything you needed to stay for a few days or more. They even drove me to the apartment from the best of magnetic for no further charge. Property had a comfy bed and a nice lounge that reclined. Bedroom had a desk and two mirrors. I was content staying at the property. Walking distance to the beach and hotel. All in all very nice place to stay.
We appreciated easy going friendly service, right down to a "no worries, no charge" approach to late checkout, just made things so much easier for our family, seldom receive this service these days. Spacious clean beds and rooms, no funky smelling carpet etc. Much better than clownsville upmarket hotel, paid more and received less. We will be back!
What a wonderful place to stay for a Maggie Island escape! House is well laid out and comfortable even with 6 adults and a baby in residence. Kitchen was great with ample crockery, cutlery and cooking utensils. Fantastic location with direct beach access and a short walk to the pub and other restaurants and cafes. Absolutely loved it!
Great space, decor, amenities and location, close to Arcadia pub and Geoffrey Bay. Very handy 3 min bus ride from Nelly Bay ferry terminal and so convenient to have a bus stop directly out the front of the house. Loved our friendly visiting kookaburra - a real treat for the kids! BBQ on the verandah also a bonus.
Very well equipped house with all mod cons. Nicely decorated, also had Netflix. Being opposite Geoffreys Beach, although couldn’t really swim there. Close to restaurants and small shop and walking distance to the rock wallabies which are cute.
Dandaloo is set in beautiful gardens, and Roxanne is a very helpful and caring hostess. Just a short walk in to Arcadia or if you prefer to go further afield then the bus stops just outside.....a very convenient location.
The resort is lovely.
The staff are welcoming and friendly, the rooms have a beautiful view over the pool and beach, the pub is right there and has delicious meals. Everything about this place says relax and enjoy.
Breakfast not included. Spacious and well positioned close to beach, hotel and bus stops. Comfortable beds and clean apartment. Probably overcatered given there were only two of us staying.
Best Magnetic really were helpful and friendly (gave us two sets of keys which lots of hotels won’t do) prompt service
Very clean
Convenient & practical - complete kitchen & hot shower
Location perfect. Facilities very good. Arcadia is my favourite on the Island, only downfall no coffee shop, have to go walk to Drop Bear cafe. Otherwise great location.
