The food at the restaurant was fabulous and I was thrilled that there were many gluten free options beyond the usual very basic choices. The service at dinner was terrific. Lovely gardens in the grounds and a nice swimming pool. Quiet location and an easy walk from the ferry, and then only a short walk to the beginning of a beautiful bush walking trail. Bus stops right out front for you. Friendly staff who kindly accommodated a late checkout for us.

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.

- From £37.93 per night7.9Scored 7.9GoodRated good· 601 reviewsAbsolutely loved Arcadia Lodge, staff were great and location couldn’t have been better. Just a short stroll to great pub & coffee shop & convenience store around the corner. We hated to had to leave and will hopefully get back there before heading home to Victoria as there is so much to see & do. We met some really nice people while staying there & met the resident echidnas while there. We would like to thank Ian, V & Craig for their hospitality and advise all that Magnetic Island had to offer.JoanneAustralia
- 6.3Scored 6.3PleasantRated pleasant· 13 reviewslocation is good- about 20 minutes walk from ferry terminal, and there is bus stop outside the property. Amaroo restaurant and swimming pool are good. Attractive grounds. Overall it was quiet and mainly non smoking, but there was some smoking. The kitchenette is useful and adequate for simple cooking, but no stove just microwave. Room comfortable and ideal for solo travellers. Magnetic island is a beautiful place for a quiet relaxing holiday: easy to get around on foot or by the local bus servicerichardAustralia
- 9.4Scored 9.4SuperbRated superb· 48 reviewsThis is the perfect little oasis from which to explore Magnetic Island and retreat back to your own little slice of rainforest. The attention to detail in every aspect of this accommodation, from lovely natural scented toiletries to local themed artworks and vintage styling - it was a perfect escape. I also can't leave a review without mentioning the extravagant full breakfast that the host provided each morning, complete with delicious tropical fruits.RebeccaAustralia
- From £122.33 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
