Guest Reviews
- Monika (9/5): - Sehr hübsch eingerichtet, schöne Lage im Grünen, tolle Terrasse. Von den 180 Vogelarten auf Magnetic Island haben wir gefühlt nachts alle gehört ;-) Die Kommunikation war etwas schwierig. Details kamen nur schleppend. Auf eine Anfrage Tage vorher wurde überhaupt nicht reagiert.
- Dr. Verena (9/5): - Super Lage, hübsche Einrichtung. Alles da!
- Phoebe (10/5): - Very clean and nice
- Sharon (10/5): -
- Kevin (10/5): - Fantastic cottage in a lovely location. Bus stops right outside. There is a brilliant local shop a 2 minute walk away for coffee, amazing breakfast and food and a bottle shop. There was nothing to dislike about this property.
- Michael Wilson (9/5): -
- Maria (9/5): - Really lovely cottage with everything you would need for a short stay. Lots of room and very clean. The hosts live next door. They were very friendly and helpful. Good location not far from the ferry terminal and if you’re carrying lots of luggage there’s a bus stop outside the cottage. We came at the end of February and a lot of the restaurants were closed, so not many options for eating out nearby. Also, stinger season so no swimming outside the netted areas. The washing machine was outside in the car port. There are a lot of mosquitoes around the cottage and I got really bitten doing the laundry. But happy that there was a washing machine.
- Roslyn (10/5): Clean, comfortable and close to the beach -
- saxon (10/5): -
- Natasha (10/5): Amazing cottage - Lovely cottage exactly what you see on the website, so clean, has everything you need, 10/10 accommodation
- Dianne (10/5): - Many thoughtful touches. Bed linen- there was no top sheet. Bedroom locked on arrival.
- Luke (7/5): -
- Shannon (7/5): Had a good time - Location was perfect, right next to bus stop which was one stop from the pier and it’s only a 7 min walk from the scooter rental shop. Sofa in communal area was comfortable. Easy check in process. Microwave is under the kitchen sink placed right next to the bin, so when you take fresh food out of the microwave it’s right next to a bin.
The beds were really uncomfortable. Wasn’t able to have a proper restful sleep. My friend in the second bedroom had the same experience.
Saw a few cockroaches around the fridge and dishwasher.

- Alvaro (8/5): - Nice central location, cosy, comfy.
- Annelies (7/5): Prima lokatie - Fijn dat er een bushalte en supermarkt zo dichtbij zijn. We vonden de bank lekker zitten! Huisje was netjes De wasmachine (staat buiten) en is erg gedateerd. De 2e slaapkamer was afgesloten en samen met een familielid of vriend in 1 bed onder 1 laken is niet wat je wil als je een onderkomen met 2 slaapkamers boekt. Verder was de verlichting vreselijk, er is 1 felle lamp per ruimte, wat wij heel ongezellig vinden.
- Daniel Hayter (8/5): Magnetic Island getaway - Close walk to the ocean and very easy access to public transport as a bus stop is right out the front. Nothing
- Morten (8/5): Vi nød vores ophold, dejlig terrasse og mulighed for at vaske tøj. - Ligger i gå afstand fra det hele. Der er en vaskemaskine til fri afbenyttelse. Lille købmand på den anden side af vejen. Køkken redskaber trænger til en opgradering, der er det der skal være men det er slidt, dårlig brødkniv, slidt pande mv. En god hovedrengøring ville også være godt. Der er ikke en dyne, kun et dynebetræk.

- Anonymous (10/5): Island Cottages - The cottage was so lovely with a large balcony outside and even a back garden. The facilities were very good, and the location was excellent, having a supermarket and chemist within easy walking distance, if needed, and the beach was a very short walk down the road. We found an excellent local taxi service to visit restaurants in the evening.

- Leanda (10/5): Exceptional - Loved the location! Close to the ferry, bus stop right out front and a supermarket across the road. The wonderful Saltwater restaurant is nearby too. Nothing! Our stay was perfect 🥰
- David (6/5): Nice property but spoilt by poor maintenance and guest management - nice modern cottage with a deck and carport. Close to the ferry station. Would stay in Horsehoe bay next time. We arrived at 3.30 (check in was 2pm) and the property had not been cleaned and had cleaning equipment lying around. We hadn't been sent confirmation from the host and couldn't get in. We went next door guessing it might be the owner.
Owner wasn't even expecting us. He seemed confused if we had a booking or not or if he knew we were coming or not. We had to leave and come back later after he cleaned the house
Fridge door handles had been removed
The A/C in one of the bedrooms was broken
The Microwave was in the cupboard under the sink, at ground floor level!
Washing machine is outside
No flyscreen on the entrance sliding doors.

- Debra (8/5): We enjoyed our stay with very easy access to public transport ( outside the door) within easy walking distance to restau - Excellent location. All necessary amenities provided. Quiet location with privacy. Easy to contact owners. A couple more wine glasses would be good. Chair on verandah came apart. Exhaust fan in bathroom not working.

Very in heigeinic.
Very minor but a tea towel for the kitchen would have been useful.

- Tasmaniantraveller1 (9/5): Terrific place and recommend it - Happy with it all - terrific location next to bus stop and a block from a supermarket; loved the space inside and the deck outside. Couldnt ask for more - was very happy
- Marya (8/5): Lovely cottage, clean kitchen - The cottage is lovely and inviting. It's decorated beautifully and the kitchen was clean and well outfitted to cook in. The kitchen is the main part of the cottage, with a table and four chairs, and a big, comfy couch. The tile floor in the bathroom looks very elegant. It's centrally located, across the street from a grocery store open until 7 pm, and adjacent to the public bus stop. It's a 15 min walk from the ferry. The bed was not comfy and it squeaked when I moved. There is also a lot of street noise because the house is right on the road, and on a corner. Also, I didn't realize one bedroom would be locked. The locked one was in the front of the house and having that door shut took away a lot of the natural light in the front of the house. It also felt a bit weird to be staying there alone and to have one bedroom locked off. Also, a lot of light comes in the main kitchen window. It's got a lovely view of trees and chickens who come to say hi, but the light is too much for standing there making your breakfast or sitting at the kitchen table. These are small things though and I would definitely recommend and stay there again. The cottage is lovely!
