Beautiful place. We loved it from the first moment. We were supposed to stay 3 nights but extended it with 3 more nights. Nice garden and pool area. So close to the beach! Would definitely stay again.

This is a fantastic resort. Whilst it's a little bit older, the rooms are open and spacious. The bed and pillow super comfortable and the property offers great value for money at a convenient location to the beach, restaurants and marina. Jennie was the manager and our point of contact. Super friendly and knowledgeable about the island, and a real joy to interact with.

Very good stay. Staff were extremely helpful. On arrival the receptionist told us all about the island and things to do. It was very clear she was passionate and gave us some great tips for food and activities. I also wanted to do some laundry after the staff hours and someone arrived within 5 mins to provide change. Much appreciated. Would recommend to anyone who comes onto the island. Also next to a bus stop which is 1dollar a day for unlimited travel around the island.

The only reason I didn't give 5 stars was because of the privacy. You could hear people going to the toilet. I wouldn't let that stop me from staying here again though.

A great place to stay at Magnetic Island

We were at Magnetic Island for 5 days with a couple of diving days included. Island Leisure Resort was a great place for our stay, close to Nelly Bay and Jenny and the staff were so friendly and helpful. Our room had very comfortable QS and Single bed, kitchenette with microwave, full size fridge, hotplates, cooking utensils, kettle and toaster. We were also able to get a coffee plunger. The bathroom was large with a screen-less shower, plenty of towels and toilet paper supplied. A TV was mounted high up on the wall and there was a reverse cycle air-conditioner. A small outdoor area was nice for the afternoon sun. They don't service the rooms during your stay, which we prefer. The WiFi is free and works well. Getting there from the ferry, we walked with our bags but in hindsight we should have caught the bus or a taxi, an easy walk with no bags. Taxis are $15 to almost anywhere I think and the bus is an excellent way to get around the island. We bought a week's pass and used it every day. There was a pool and laundry, tennis court, and also a games room with table tennis and a small kiosk for any essentials you need. Foodland is a short walk up the road and there's a pharmacy and bottle shop there as well. Overall it was a comfortable and quiet place to stay and had everything we needed. We would stay again if we come back to Maggie.
