Just 15 minutes walk from the ferry. Close proximity to the gym, car rental place and 10 mins from Nomads hostel (if you want to drink at night)
We’ve been travelling 4 months and this was the most, if not one of the most comfortable stays we have had. It was very homely, and plenty of space.
We met the owner briefly one day and he was very friendly too.
Highly recommend. More so for couples
Thanks for having us!

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.

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.

Magnetic Islanders were very friendly and helpful.
Magnetic Islanders were very friendly and helpful. Very good IGA supermarket. A few restaurants with OK food. Well serviced by public buses (which very effectively link up the whole island). Very good forrest walk between Nellie Bay and Arcadia

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.

- From £109.70 per night9.1Scored 9.1SuperbRated superb· 59 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
- 9.1Scored 9.1SuperbRated superb· 646 reviewsWe 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.
BrianNew Zealand - 9.2Scored 9.2SuperbRated superb· 85 reviewsVery 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.MariuszAustralia
- 6.9Scored 6.9PleasantRated pleasant· 17 reviewsBalcony 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.KathleenAustralia
- 7.2Scored 7.2GoodRated good· 6 reviewsMagnetic Island itself was amazing! And the room was OK (just OK though) nothing spectacular. View was nice and the room has a blender which meant we could make cocktails in the room for sunset. I would suggest using the local buses to get around as they are cheap, clean, reliable and run until late at night. Get an all day ticket and go exploring!GrantAustralia
