Comfortable stay, easy and central location. It had been cleaned prior to our arrival but cleanliness could have been improved, for example there was ants, conditioner on windows by the bath, popcorn between the couch cushions. Otherwise, it was a good stay and the check in and out process was easy.

Hi Catherine, we appreciate your time to share your experience. We are glad to know you're comfortable enough. However, we apologise for any inconvenience. We do get regular pest control treatment for all our properties but we'll have the unit checked. We will also coordinate with the housekeeping team for improvement and action. We hope we can welcome you back again at another time.
Fantastic location - close to everything - ferry, shops, walks, cafes etc. very quiet and restful. Well kitted out with everything required at hand. Perfect fit out for our needs (3 adults requiring own rooms and several bathrooms). Only constructive criticism is that the cleaning was lacking. We found popcorn in the couch and the shaggy rug in the lounge was dusty to the point of causing allergies. The cane bedside lamps upstairs were coated with dust and the ceiling fans were not too dissimilar.
The property had everything that we needed and more , location was spot on and we would use this property again when we return to Magnetic Island.
