- Elizabeth (10/5): - I am from Nashville Tennessee USA and visited my partner who lives in Townsville QLD over the winter holidays. We stayed at True North for a couple of nights during my visit. Everything was perfect! The breakfast served in the mornings was delicious with ample portions to hold us over till dinner time. The room fridge was stocked with coffee, milk and sugar with a water pitcher as well. The room also was equipped with anything else we needed during our stay in the way of cups, cutlery, kettle, and toaster. The property itself was gorgeous and felt very private amongst other holiday stays in the area. It was also very walkable to Horseshoe Bay with multiple bus stops close by if not feeling up for a walk. We had a great time and definitely plan to come back on our next visit to the island 🏝️
- Rod (10/5): - Lovely B&B with a delicious breakfast served in the morning with a great choice of options. You can tell Deb loves to cook as presentation is beautiful. Delicious fruit bowl, yogurt and eggs, bacon and toast. Walkable to beach. Convenient to bus stop.

If staying on Magnetic Island Horseshoe Bay is the place to stay - beautiful beach, a number of great restaurants, access to walking tracks, a good bus service (we had our own car but the bus was quite regular). If we return to Magnetic Island we would definitely come back here.
Thanks Deb for making our Magnetic Island trip so memorable.
- Stephen (10/5): - Wonderful rooms and addiional facilities( shaded pool, bbq area). Short walk to restaurants. Bars and beach at gorgeous horseshoe bay. Bus connecting horeshoe bay to ferry terminal runs past the front of the building. Short bus ride to the start of the famous forts walk. Almost guaranteed to see Koalas in the wild on this stunning walk

- Virginia (10/5): - We loved our stay at True North. It was an absolute haven from the heat. We loved cooking dinner in the kitchen and hanging out by the pool. It’s right by the bus stop and a few minutes from Horseshoe Bay. The breakfasts were a highlight - I recommend the pears!
- Simone (10/5): Yummy breakfast and good balcony - Great place to stay with a lovely breakfast. Good location near the beach, but a little bit away from the main street which suited us well. Everything walkable in Horseshoe Bay and very close to the bus stop which was also useful. Bed was very comfortable and we really enjoyed the private outdoor space provided by the balcony. Good kitchenette as well.
- Greg (10/5): - We stayed in a large, quiet room with a private balcony and had an excellent cooked breakfast provided each day. The property is a short walk to the beach and eateries. We highly recommend it for couples. Thank you Debbie and Larry!

A nice covered porch with our room. A selection of books is available to read. Wonderful place and a great value.
- Jane (8/5): - Private and quiet. Very comfortable bed.
- Mark (10/5): - Great location lovely accommodation first rate service and communication and the best breakfast with loads of choice. Totally recommend this B&B
- Colin (10/5): - Very frendly, helpfull service, exelent breakfasts
- David (10/5): Birthdaybash - We were escaping the Wellington winter and found a warm welcome here. The choice and delivery of breakfast was exceptional. The whole place was friendly and comfortable. Really want to do it again.
- Paul (10/5): Fabulous - Great place to stay. Having a cooked breakfast delivered to your door is definitely a highlight, especially when you had about 7 different choices and they were all excellent, healthy and filling. The building itself is an old Queenslander, timber decks and floorboards, balcony. Four different rooms, so can't get too busy or noisy. The host, Deb, was friendly and caring. The accommodation is well shaded with trees and birdlife, but the pool area could do with some more sun. The location is a short walk to Horseshoe Bay beach and it's many cafe's, resturants and a pub. There is a convenience store and access to many fascinating walks. Highly recommended for an enjoyable stay in magnificent Magnetic Island.
- Sue (8/5): - Deb at True North is a really good host!! Its in the service which makes a place special. She makes the best breakfast, delivered to your room on time. The room was very comfortable and with lots of space and a private balcony. The only down side was the road works happening at the front of the property at the time we stayed, it started very early for holiday'ers. We will go back to True North BnB.
- Joanna (10/5): - The staff were super friendly, the room was a good size. And the breakfast delivered to our room on the mornings was as delicious as it was generous. Great location, a short walk to the beach and the Koala Village just next door.
- Elissa (10/5): - Lovely breakfast, a close walk to horseshoe bay and restaurants, friendly welcome
- Christina (10/5): - The owner Deb is super friendly and accomodating. The place is well located and walking distance to the action in Horseshoe Bay. The breakfast is a highlight with multiple options and delicious flavours!
- Maxine (10/5): - Great spot
- Roselyne (10/5): - Our first holiday since 2008 and first time at a B&D. Enjoy the stay and the wonderful breakfast. Will go back in the future. Highly recommended. However there are 4 rooms and only 2 car park facilities. Also could not locate the recycling bins to place the bottles and plastics in. Otherwise, truly enjoyable.
- Peter (10/5): - I very much appreciated my clean, quiet, comfortable room. I also wish to specifically mention that Deb is a kind and caring host.
- Mick (10/5): - Fantastic place to stay
- Andrew (10/5): - A relaxing short stay.
The pool was cool, the room comfortable and quiet and the breakfast was great.
A short walk to Horseshoe Bay and we also took a beautiful walk across the hill to Balding Bay.
I feel refreshed.
- Mulvina (10/5): - Lovely comfortable accommodation, with every amenity supplied. Easy 7 min walk to beach. Delicious cooked breakfast delivered by our very caring host Deb. Enjoyed our stay!
- John (10/5): Peaceful - Peaceful and delicious brekky
- Verified traveler (10/5): - The breakfast inclusion was an absolute delightful experience. The owners were very friendly and helpful. The property was of a very high standard. Would stay again.
- Verified traveler (8/5): - True North B&B is a large home with 4 seperate air-conditioned rooms complete with bathroom, toilet and verandah. Beds are QS. Hosts are nice people who go out of their way to ensure your comfort.
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Friendly hosts. Clean and tidy room with everything we needed.
- Ruth (10/5): Can't recommend highly enough! - From the very start they hosts went above and beyond, picking me (and my suitcases) up to making the MOST AMAZING breakfast according to my vegetarian diet.
They were full of knowledge on the local area and just very warm, lovely people. And whilst it was a bnb, you still had the privacy and space like a hotel - would certainly come back again.
- Verified traveler (10/5): - True north BB was a beautiful quiet retreat! Deb and Larry do a hell of a job. You get a lovely informative welcome and the breakfasts are amazing! Just a short walk to the beach and the local pub. Top-notch!
- Verified traveler (10/5): - True North B ‘n’ B was one of loveliest places we have stayed at. It was clean, tidy and Debra and Larry were genuinely friendly and helpful - nothing was a problem. The pool was clean and refreshing; the room was brilliant - clean tidy and had everything you required - the balcony where we ate breakfast each morning, was so inviting - calming and a lovely way to create plans for the day. The other great thing was there so many little hints and ideas that Debra was able to suggest about what to do and who to contact that it made us feel almost local. Another great reason - walking distance to the ‘main drag’ of Horseshoe Bay, especially in light of eateries; butterfly walk and bus stops! You would silly to stay anywhere else.
- Verified traveler (8/5): - Beautiful house with all the amenities you could ask for. Service was excellent and the breakfast was a tropical delight!
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Nice clean & spacious room. Pool in backyard & walking distance to shops & restaurants
- Michael (10/5): - The property is situated on in a beautiful and relaxing garden which you can enjoy right outside your window or from your balcony. The room is equipped with a great variety of cooking utensils for flexible eating options, however, the breakfast provided is excellent and recommend eating breakfast at the property instead of a cafe.
