This was the perfect place to stay on Magnetic Island! The room was so clean, light and spacious. Really comfy bed and well stocked kitchen and bathroom - the owner even gave us some chocolate, wine and wallaby food!! We were able to check in early which was so helpful. Wished we booked for longer, it was perfect.

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.LesAustralia

- 9.0Scored 9.0SuperbRated superb· 78 reviewsIn a quiet location with a lovely pool. Spacious, functional layout with well thought out inclusions. Good cooking facilities and full size fridge. Plenty of hot water. Short flat walk to the Foodworks supermarket, bottle shop and the outstanding Saltwater (BYO) restaurant. Bus stop at the end of the drive to go to the IGA near the ferry terminal or explore the island (the 7 day bus pass is a bargain). All in all a lovely holiday in first class accommodation at a reasonable price. Owner very helpful and friendly. Highly recommended.AllenAustralia
- 9.4Scored 9.4SuperbRated superb· 98 reviewsConveniently 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".LeeAustralia
- 9.2Scored 9.2SuperbRated superb· 235 reviewsCould not have asked for a better property to stay at while visiting Magnetic Island. We were greeted by Lizzie (manager of the property) at the port on our arrival. She explained the amenities of the property in detail and was friendly and very professional. Bed was extremely comfortable, bathroom clean and shower had excellent water pressure. Kitchen was well stocked and had everything we required ranging from salt, oil and pots and pans.AnthonyAustralia
- From CNY 1,107.70 per night9.1Scored 9.1SuperbRated superb· 60 reviewsIt 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.Seitz-ChernerUnited States

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.DeniseAustralia

Magnetic island is small so anywhere is great but this is right next to the bus stop which is handy, there’s only one bus through the island, from one end to another. They do car hire too.
