The Space:

This apartment is perfectly positioned on the Picnic Bay foreshore, featuring 2 bedrooms, well appointed kitchen and a large front deck to enjoy the view and fresh sea air. True island life!



What more could you want. Beachfront, views, peace and quiet, a jetty to wander or throw in a line and catch a fish for the barbie. You will be captivated by the simplistic nature of Picnic Bay yet you can still stroll to the local for a cold drink or wine and dine in the very successful RnR bistro on your doorstep.



This uncomplicated piece of Magnetic Island is enhanced by enjoying comfortable accommodation. This apartment features 2 queen size beds over the 2 bedrooms and 1 queen sized bed in the communal 'sleep-out' area.



During the summer months Picnic Bay beach features a stinger net so all year swimming in the Coral Sea is a wonderful feature of this destination.

Picnic Bay Appartments.

Nice place, getting a bit of age on it. Not much sun comes into the deck area because of the fig trees. Close to the Picnic bay pub and a cafe, right on the beach, quiet side of the island, which was great for us.

Disappointing Circumstances

The water was turned off for most of our second day staying there. The had a water leak and had to use jack hammers to dig and find the problem. I understand these things need to be fixed, and we were notified the night before by the owner; but I believe they should have scheduled it to be done when there were no guests in the property. We have 2 small children that require day naps- impossible with jack hammering outside the window. We were also staying there to attend a wedding on the Saturday, which of course you want to shower before you get dressed up for an event. They graciously turned the water back on for 10mins for us to flush the toilet and quickly shower- but it was an inconvenience that we shouldn’t have had considering we paid to stay there. The floors were also very dusty on arrival. The location is fantastic though and it was lovely to relax on the deck with a stunning view.
