Writing as a part time wheelchair user. I had informed the staff beforehand of needs and they were quick to respond and accommodate me. In fact, the accessible room had been damaged in a tropical storm so the team made sure I still had a space to stay that met my needs. It was a beautiful spot incredibly clean and spacious. So not the room I intended but some other hotels would have asked me to pay extra or not given me the space. So a free upgrade to make sure I was comfortable and good actually enjoy my stay? Yes please and thank you very much Peppers! Amazing location on the waterfront and lovely pool area and restaurant. Staff were very kind and helpful with recommendations. It is across the road from where Ferry comes in and Buses leave from.

This was a lovely apartment. The surroundings were so pretty and full of birds. Communication was great from start to finish and we were greeted and helped to find our place. The cute sign personally welcoming us was such a nice touch! The kitchen area and bathroom had everything we could need and were very clean. WiFi worked well. The hosts were gracious to allow us to leave our things on the porch after checkout. Great location on beautiful Maggie’s island. We’d highly recommend this apartment.

    Friendly people, particularly shop assistants, restaurant staff, cab drivers and bus drivers. Saltwater restaurant was excellent, with tables under the stars and efficient staff. The Boardwalk at Peppers was also excellent, the barramundi was delicious. I would recommend a visit to the Museum, which has historical information about the island, also handmade jewellery created by volunteers. The volunteers are also very knowledgeable about the Island's history.

    Nelly Bay was beautiful but Magnetic Island was stunning and relaxing. We hiked to watch sunset, saw so much wildlife (a koala, echidna, wallaby, stingray, turtle) and the views and different beaches were all magnificent (Arcadia, Geoffrey Bay, Fort Walk, Nelly Bay). We took a car and it was the best decision as the bus service seemed to have quite a wait. Overall we loved Maggie Island, the getaway was just what I needed and I will definitely go back.

    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.

    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.

    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.

    The shuttle buses around the island were ideal to get to the 4 main towns. Nelly bay has 2 supermarkets which is super handy staying there instead of travelling with your shopping on the buses. Beautiful main beach and close to see the rock wallabies.

    We really liked the situation, with each unit being fairly private, and the facilities on-site were great. It was quiet, and very convenient for catching the bus, also walkable from the ferry terminal at Nelly Bay. The staff were very helpful with lots of suggestions for things to do while we were there. We would definitely consider staying there again if we were to visit Magnetic Island again.

    It completley exceeded our expectations. We got there at around 11 p.m. and we could easily get into our tent thanks to Barb's instructions. The tent was really beautiful, clean and well organized. We really enjoyed our stay there and would definitely go back if we happen to be around Magnetic Island again.
