It 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.

This was a lovely apartment. The surroundings were so pretty and full of birds. Communication was great from start to finish and we were greeted and helped to find our place. The cute sign personally welcoming us was such a nice touch! The kitchen area and bathroom had everything we could need and were very clean. WiFi worked well. The hosts were gracious to allow us to leave our things on the porch after checkout. Great location on beautiful Maggie’s island. We’d highly recommend this apartment.

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.
In 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.
Conveniently 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".
Could 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.
It 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.
Having breakfast included, the lovely pool at the back, the locality and the good size of the bathroom and main living area. 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.
Very 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.
Comfortable cabin right on the ocean, modern fittings, staff very helpful. Although there was no kettle or microwave in the cabin, the camp kitchen was open with these and other cooking appliances and crockery and cutlery for everyone to use. The resort is a wonderful holiday destination. Bus service passes the entrance.
The rooms were very spacious, and had all we needed. The gardens and pool area were gorgeous. It was very quiet and close to the beach. Staff was fantastic and we enjoyed our relaxing Island stay a lot. We came in July and mainly explored the island on foot. A bus stop is conveniently close to the hotel.
The accommodation for perfect for our needs as a young family. It was very clean and had all the facilities we needed to have a relaxing and enjoyable beach holiday stay. The host was available to answer our questions promptly. We would highly recommend this lovely cottage to others.
Great location, really lovely hosts - offered to drive us from the ferry to the house for free. Beautiful villas, gorgeous surroundings, comfy beds. Was lovely to have our own BBQ. Pool area is very pretty, and access to Nelly Bay beach is perfect. Very quiet and peaceful.
Beach house is in an ideal location. 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. You can rent little 4x4s which is fun.
Next to a beautiful beach, looks like a resort.
The stuff were very nice and helpful. The prices at the bar are good and the food is good.
They have parties and game nights.
Highly recommended place to stay in magnetic island
Great location, close to shops, cafes & ferry terminal. Cottage was very clean and comfortable. private patio surrounded by nice gardens. Bus stop directly out front to travel around the rest of Magnetic Island.
I liked the style and furnishing and all of the touches. There was everything that you could need and more! Nice and airy throughout and well located in nelly bay.
The staff are excellent. Experienced an authentic Magnetic Island vacation. Wallabies in the grounds, so many birds and a perfect escape from life's pressures.
