Water Views Studio

5 out of 5 average rating, 3 reviews1 month ago

A great place to stay in Magnetic island for a few days, the apartment is clean and spacious, and the pool area is amazing! It’s also very well located, very easy to get to from the ferry and well located to get around the rest of the island from, also very near the shop. Todd is a great host, he was very responsive and friendly if we had questions. Would definitely recommend!

Central stylish unit on the strand!

5 out of 5 average rating, 13 reviews1 week ago

Such a lovely stay! Had everything we needed plus so much more! My favourite was the bathroom that was like a luxury spa!! Had such a relaxing time! Location was perfect and it was lovely to just pop down stairs for dinner or dessert! The ultimate was the view to wake to and enjoy the ocean breeze in the larger balcony. Thank you for the stay and can’t wait to come back.

We had a wonderful stay at this beautiful little home! The space was spotless, with every detail thoughtfully considered to ensure comfort. The peaceful atmosphere was exactly what we needed to relax and recharge. The bed was cozy, the amenities were top-notch, and the surrounding area was quiet yet conveniently located. Communication with the host was seamless, making the entire experience even better. I would highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a clean and serene getaway.

Absolutely Lovely Waterfront Apartment 333

4.97 out of 5 average rating, 33 reviews6 days ago

We had the most enjoyable and relaxing time at Susan’s place. The apartment was really clean, comfortable beds and so many lovely touches - lots of details were taken care of and we could feel at home yet really disconnect and recharge. We would love to come back sometime and highly recommend Susan’s place.
