I wanted to take the massive comfortable bed home it was that good! The pool was great too. Kate went above and beyond to help us including taking us back to the ferry terminal. Meeting Winston (Kates dog) was an added bonus!

Situated in Nelly Bay, just 50 metres from the beach, Island Leisure Resort offers self-contained bungalows with a flat-screen TV. The property also features a swimming pool and tennis court. Free WiFi is available in public areas, and on-site parking is provided. Great location- a block from the beach, a block from the $1 island bus, the pier and the park with Playground… The staff was friendly and the resort was beautiful, with lots of privacy, …loved the game room. Easy to see the whole island from there in two days. Or was like a whole house with full living room, kitchen, patio… Very quiet.

Just 200 metres from Picnic Bay Beach, Tropical Palms Inn offers air-conditioned rooms with a kitchenette and a private balcony or courtyard. Facilities include an outdoor swimming pool and a barbecue area set in lovely gardens. After a week of running around sightseeing here and there, I arrived on Magnetic Island hoping most of all for rest and relaxation, and Tropical Palms was absolutely perfect for that! Rob welcomed me warmly in spite of my failure to properly communicate a late arrival, and gave lots of tips on where to go for walks to spot wildlife. My room was comfortable and clean, and overall the place was really lovely, laid-back and peaceful. I was glad I'd picked the location by Picnic Bay, which is probably the most quiet part of the island. There's nevertheless a nice selection of restaurants nearby, and a nice beach, and koalas live right next doors! Loved it!
