The location was perfect. We found the property easily, parking was outside which was not a problem.
Magnetic Island is still an affordable place for a getaway.
Magnetic Island is still an affordable place for a getaway. Just need to be mindful of the stinger season and where you choose to swim. Horseshoe Bay and Picnic bay offer stinger nets. Alma Bay has great facilities and close to Arcadia pub.

Arcadia is a little quieter and less touristy than the popular Horseshoe Bay. Alma Bay is a beautiful place to swim, with natural protection from stingers. Alma Bay is easily within walking distance from Arcadia. There are a couple of great convenience stores. The ferry terminal is minutes away.

The folks running the motel were super friendly and helpful and tried to accommodate us as best as they could - letting us check in slightly early and check out slightly late, which was very much appreciated.
The aircon could've been a bit better, but was fine in the end.
All in all a very enjoyable stay, and a perfect location to explore from, would definitely stay there again.

Arcadia is the best bay on Magnetic island.
Arcadia is the best bay on Magnetic island. Walk along Geoffrey Bay, head out to the old jetty and feed the rock wallabies. Swim in Alma Bay, snorkle around the rocks or jump off Bums rock at high tide. Lounge on the terraced lawn sweeping down to the beach in the shade ( if swimming is not your thing), cook your own BBQ or head over to the Pub for lunch and a swim in their pool. head up to the Waterfall pools, or hike to Nelly. Walk or bus tothe other Bays. Look out for the Koalas and wandering Curlews and Echidnas that call Arcadia home.
Check-in and transportation to the site was really easy as the office is straight opposite the ferry terminal on arrival. Staff there were really helpful. The location of the apartment in Arcadia is perfect. Totally quiet (well except for curlews!), easy for walking to the shop, beach, and bus stop, and 100 yards from the start of the trails for seeing wildlife (especially the koalas). We found no need to rent a car - the bus service is outstanding
The location was fabulous, very easy walking distance to Nelly Bay, Arcadia, Geoffrey Bay, Alma Bay and a convenience store and café right across the road. House was very comfortable and heaps of room for the dog in the fully enclosed yard. You even get a small glimpse of the water from the front deck. The spotlights on the national park hill at the back were beautiful. Wonderful array of books to read, movies to watch and games to play.
The units have everything that you need. The location is perfect with the best beach a short walk away and the bus at your doorstep. They run regularley which is all you need to get around the island. They run from Picnic Bay to Horseshore Bay and its cheap. You really don't need a car. We spoke with Roxanne about some of the improvements that they are making to the property and these will make it even better.
Great space, decor, amenities and location, close to Arcadia pub and Geoffrey Bay. Very handy 3 min bus ride from Nelly Bay ferry terminal and so convenient to have a bus stop directly out the front of the house. Loved our friendly visiting kookaburra - a real treat for the kids! BBQ on the verandah also a bonus.
Very well equipped house with all mod cons. Nicely decorated, also had Netflix. Being opposite Geoffreys Beach, although couldn’t really swim there. Close to restaurants and small shop and walking distance to the rock wallabies which are cute.
The resort is lovely.
The staff are welcoming and friendly, the rooms have a beautiful view over the pool and beach, the pub is right there and has delicious meals. Everything about this place says relax and enjoy.
Nice studio type cabin in tropical setting within easy walk of Alma Bay and Geoffrey Bay, Arcadia Bay Hotel and Tamerind Cafe (highly recommend for yummy cakes for morning tea), and with bus out the front.
Price. Comfortable. Large area for 2 people. All possible cooking utensils provided. Very comfortable bed. Easy to keep clean during stay. Walking distance to Stagedoor Theatre, beach and Arcadia Hotel.
Best Magnetic really were helpful and friendly (gave us two sets of keys which lots of hotels won’t do) prompt service
Very clean
Convenient & practical - complete kitchen & hot shower
Location perfect. Facilities very good. Arcadia is my favourite on the Island, only downfall no coffee shop, have to go walk to Drop Bear cafe. Otherwise great location.
