Over all Amazing!
The manager of the hotel is amazing and catered for all our holiday needs. Unfortunately the unit is privately owned and is in desperate need of new beds and a freshen up. The resort is just beautiful and location the best we have been.

We stayed in a great apartment. Two bed non water view, however we did have water since we over looked the ferry area which was fine as not noisy. The apartment was large and spacious, extremely clean and comfortable. Staff were great also. Thanks

Short stay on Magnetic Island
Apartment was ok. Layout and space is good. Well equipped. TVs and remotes were really poor . WiFi was absolutely awful. Cleanliness was average , floor needed a good clean. Position in resort was great, close to port for the ferry and the bus connections.

I was disappointed with this property. For the amount you pay per night and the reputation of the mecure, i will not be staying here again, nor would i recommend it. We stayed in a 2 bedroom apartment, which was advertised as an ocean view. We were situated behind the pool and spa, so we had a view of that instead. Faults with the accommodation. My biggest issue was that that room didnt lock. The area where you enter the back patio, the gate didnt shut competely, so it wasnt lockable. And then the lock on the door to the actual apartment has shutters next to it which you can stick your hand through and open the lock on the inside of the door, from the outside. The floors were wet when we first walked in. The main shower was mouldy. There was what I am assuming to be food splatter all over both the bedroom walls. The spa was very low in water so you basically sat with half of your body exposed and the jets are on a timer for 5 minutes so you have to get out and turn the bubbles back on every 5 minutes.

It doesn’t get much better. New management have worked hard to regain their reputation and have succeeded in my opinion. Better than we expected, the room was immaculate and we felt like we were home. Friendly receptionist made us feel welcomed from the second we arrived and I can’t say enough to thank them for an amazing stay. Well done.

Great location. Spacious unit and well appointed. BUT on a very warm and humid weekend, the air-conditioner was broken and offered no relief. We were given a pedestal fan (no ceiling fans in the unit) which offered only mild relief. Management suggested many other properties did not use a/c (though lots of a/c were heard) and to open up the windows and doors which were all unscreened. We expressed concern about bugs but we were told that on Maggie Is there are very few. We tried all windows and doors open, and the bugs came in in force. A disappointment as we had southern visitors staying elsewhere and we couldn’t invite them to have dinner with us as it was so hot in the unit.

6/10 Good

The room was small and the Airco rooming was extremely bad. Terrible mostly smell in room and dampness on ceiling and floor (slippery and dangerous. Roller blind fell down and was jammed the entire stay, blocking view. Carpet dirty and stained. Didn’t like shower over bath. Not enough utensils in kitchen. Didn’t like high chairs (stools) over dining table. Pool had missing tiles and surrounding tiles needed cleaning. Garbage smell near entry. Ceiling in bathroom needed pairing. Wouldn’t recommend and certainly wouldn’t book there again.

The location in the island is beautiful and convenient- right by the ferry, coffee shops, restaurants, and an IGA. The room itself needed serious cleaning and furniture updates. We did not feel comfortable sitting on the gross couches, and there were 10-12 spiders by the sliding door.

My three girlfriends and I stayed in a two bedroom apartment with ocean views. We loved our accommodation. It was so close to the ferry terminal and we could hire one of the Topless cars right next door also. The IGA and bottleshop we're also super close so it felt very accessible and made our stay so much easier. We loved the variety of pools and gyms, we could always find a pool out of the wind. We were so, so pleased that we decided to stay here. The apartment had everything we needed.

Booked a 3 b/r apartment, which they then called to say after booking they had none left so we would have to take a 2 bedroom instead. No problem with that but was not given any indication whether a refund would be given. Called the day of check in to question what was happening and was met by an abrupt lady who answered the phone just saying “hello” Which made me second guess I even had the right number. She then proceeded to tell me that even though we paid for a 3 bedroom we would still be getting charged the same amount for 5 people because “they had to account for 5 people staying in the room” I would have been fine with paying for the extra roll out bed...if the difference wasn’t almost $100. I didn’t bother discussing this further with her because it seemed as though I would get no where. I’m a pretty easy going person and wouldn’t have minded if she had been a bit more polite or reasonable but I don’t really think this was fair-I will not be staying here again.
