We had a very memorable stay at this place, which we could truly call our home. The facilities, amenities, location and design of the house is beyond exceptional and a delight to enjoy.
This is one of the best places we have ever stayed in. Thoughtful supply of so many inclusions to make the stay comfortable. Colour coded towels, ample kitchen and laundry supplies, shopping bag etc. made our stay a luxury. Simone's responsiveness to the issues/concerns/our needs was very much appreciated.

Loved the location. Close to local shops. Our favourite eating place was Scallywags- excellent food and friendly, efficient staff and less than 10 minutes walk away. Close to the beach. Close to the ferry terminus. If you haven't got a car, the bus service is very convenient

Lots of wonderful places to eat and drink, a few boutique stores and Vinnies, for those forgotten items!! The beach was fantastic, with a snorkel trail to do and a walk to a beach bar serving fantastic food.

Nelly Bay is a little like the "CBD" of Magnetic Island.
Nelly Bay is a little like the "CBD" of Magnetic Island. Two big developments and several small apartment cluster. An excellent if expensive IGA and lots of restaurants etc. The amazing bus service joining all the main villages starts and stops at Ferry Terminal at Nelly Bay. Would have loved to have explored much more.

Nelly Bay was good as a base; walking distance to the ferry and serviced by 2 supermarkets. A good bus service on the island but overtaxed by the number of people.
other "villiages" did not have the supermarkets so you were purchasing takeaway or resturant food which was more expensive.
Yes; we could have gone on more walks, or snorkled or maybe taken a cruise; but overall it was a limited holiday.
Conveniently located within walking distance of the Magnetic Island ferry terminal. Ease of access to the local bus route but removed enough from the hustle & bustle to create a serene holiday destination. Only 10-15 minutes on bus to Horseshoe Bay. Apartment was well-equipped, in that we didn't want for anything. Lifts for easy access to all levels. Great pools located within complex, especially the rooftop pool in block 1. Definitely would come back on a return visit to "Maggie".
It was a very quiet and safe location, the apartment was spacious. There was potable water in jugs in the fridge which was a very nice touch as the tap water on magnetic Island has a strong taste when not very cold. The location of the room was OK if you don't mind walking a bit or have a car. It's about a 30 min walk from the ferry and 15 min walk from nearest restaurants. The bus stop was right out front which was very convenient.
Very practical cottages to spend few days on the island. It was clean and comfortable with A/C and all other fit outs. Good location opposite a bus stop and walking distance from the ferry. Close to a supermarket, a bottle shop, few coffee shops.. Quiet and peaceful.
Good communication with the owners, left alone to enjoy the holiday. Reasonable pricing.
Very spacious, clean, comfortable, well provided accommodation, with aircon, surrounded by beautiful tropical gardens. Everything in the rooms feel new. Can walk to Foodworks, beach. Also fun walking to helipad and beyond, where there were hundreds of wallabies. Can drive from Nelly Bay to all other villages within 10-15mins, or there also buses.
Ian was very friendly and full of knowledge although a very busy man with it being school holidays. Seems he needed more help. The front deck area was a nice spot to sit for breakfast. Location was fantastic, walk to Alma bay, bus stop close by to get around the island. Nice beach across the road to walk and enjoy. Lovely walk into nelly bay also.
The view! It was incredible - straight out to the ocean from all rooms.
Loved the outside balconies. There are two - one main one and one outside second bedroom.
The apartment is really big and airy and well equipped.
Well positioned in Nelly Bay as it is walking distance from supermarket, restaurants, ferry, bus stops etc
The rooms were very spacious, and had all we needed. The gardens and pool area were gorgeous. It was very quiet and close to the beach. Staff was fantastic and we enjoyed our relaxing Island stay a lot. We came in July and mainly explored the island on foot. A bus stop is conveniently close to the hotel.
The accommodation for perfect for our needs as a young family. It was very clean and had all the facilities we needed to have a relaxing and enjoyable beach holiday stay. The host was available to answer our questions promptly. We would highly recommend this lovely cottage to others.
Great location, really lovely hosts - offered to drive us from the ferry to the house for free. Beautiful villas, gorgeous surroundings, comfy beds. Was lovely to have our own BBQ. Pool area is very pretty, and access to Nelly Bay beach is perfect. Very quiet and peaceful.
Next to a beautiful beach, looks like a resort.
The stuff were very nice and helpful. The prices at the bar are good and the food is good.
They have parties and game nights.
Highly recommended place to stay in magnetic island
the location and view are perfect for a holiday. we rode our bikes from Townsville, there was plenty of space to keep the bikes safe and dry. we were also pleased our dog was welcome. great spot will return again and again!
Great location to explore Magnetic Island. Apartment had everything we needed and kids loved the pool! Food shops within walking distance and Scally Wags restaurant for breakfast was just round the corner! Loved it!
Right on the beach at Nelly bay, the facilities are awesome with the pool, bar and restaurant central to everything. The bus stop is just across the road, which gets you to all the best spots on the island.
I liked the style and furnishing and all of the touches. There was everything that you could need and more! Nice and airy throughout and well located in nelly bay.
excellent pools, nice restaurant, brilliantly located with easy access to everything for a short stay on Magnetic Island. very friendly and accommodating staff.
