visit to Magnetic island
We came over from Townsville where we live for a two day break. We have been to the island before and love coming back,Usually we come over in our boat but this time decided to come over by ferry and bring our car to travel easier around the island, we stayed in a quiet area lovely rooms all that you need on a holiday ,close to the beach great walking tracks.

Great family escape
From the moment I checked in I felt welcome. The staff throughout our stay were friendly and happy to impart their Island knowledge. The apartment was spotless, and extra beds were placed in there for us to work out sleeping arrangements- I was traveling with my mother and 3 children. One room had a queen bed, the other two singles. Both rooms had bathrooms attached. The second room was large enough to set up the two rollaway beds comfortably. Located across from the beach, a 2 minute walk to a grocery store, and short walk to Ferry. You have the access to all your needs while being in a quieter location. We stayed 6 nights .

very friendly and helpful staff
The staff of Island Palms Resort couldn't have been more helpful--from checking in to checking out. Any question or problem we had was cheerfully and quickly resolved. The extra items / services they offer (eg, picnic basket & rug) free of charge is a testimony to their exceptional level of hospitality.
