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.

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.
The room was clean and spacious. There was a lovely little kitchen area with anything you could need. The place itself is gorgeous and the pool is amazing. I especially loved how there were so many places to sit in the sun or shade. Having almost half the pool under a sun shade was perfect after spending long days in the sun. Lovely staff who are always so helpful in recommending things to do. The kiosk for snacks and drinks is so affordable. You could almost spend your whole stay on Magnetic Island at the resort. 10/10

The gardens of the property were the attractive feature. The room was clean & freshly painted.
The front counter staff provided useful tourist information.
Magnetic Island itself is a beautiful island, I don't know why it's not more famous.
Difficult to find a better island anywhere, though one day there is moe than enough to see everything.
We only stayed one night & took our rental car there which was perfect.
Having breakfast included, the lovely pool at the back, the locality and the good size of the bathroom and main living area. After being in a very small cabin on a cruise for 10 days the spaciousness felt amazing. I have always wanted to visit Magnetic Island and we were certainly not disappointed. We would both return in a heartbeat and stay at Peppers. Our stay wasn't long enough.
This property is clean and tidy. There is a bus stop straight outside the complex. Buy a day ticket from the ferry and you will be delivered to the bus stop, near the reception desk. Lynda has a lovely cold white wine in the fridge for your arrival. We have stayed twice now, and will definitely use this property as our go to accommodation on Magnetic Island .
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.
Balcony was a good view but felt like part of the room. Was woken at 5.30 am by alarms and an evacuation message for over 10 minutes. Then dismissed as a false alarm. Then the fire brigade attended. Fully dressed and unable to sleep after that before a 5 1/2 hour drive so not good. Magnetic Island however is beautiful. Horshoe Bay is beautiful too.
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 villa is so great. it has all the facilities and it is very comfortable. The kitchen, laundry, toilet has all the facilities, so easy to use. And the bed is so comfortable. The villa includes the common swimming pool and it is great located on the Magnetic Island. A really good place to stay.
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.
The view from the room was stunning. It had everything you could possible need even. It was exceptionally clean hangout in the room for the majority of our holiday. It felt like such a nice space to be in. Definitely staying again.
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
Certainly one of the best views of any property on Maggie. Super well equipped… not like a regular holiday house. Lovely coffee machine, lovely Bluetooth Bose stereo and everything in the kitchen we looked for.
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.
