    I had a truly amazing experience at Selina Magnetic Island. During my stay, I had the opportunity to see kangaroos, koalas, and beautiful birds freely roaming around the property. The room I stayed in was clean and comfortable, with great air-conditioning and showers. The camp kitchen was well-equipped and the best I encountered during my trip. The toilet facilities were also in good condition. Happy hour drinks were a nice bonus, and the location at Horseshoe Bay was convenient, with a bus stop right outside. I highly recommend this unique and nature-filled retreat.

    the fantastic walking tour with Hunter as our leader was the highlight of our stay. We learned so much about the local wildlife and the koalas were a joy to see up close. Selina exceeded our expectations and made our stay in Horseshoe Bay unforgettable.

    Breakfast options were limited.

    The location of this accommodation is superb, surrounded by beautiful nature and close to the beach. the bungalows provide comfortable rooms with easy access to facilities like the pool and bar. the staff are friendly and accommodating, creating a welcoming atmosphere. Guests can enjoy the convenience of a bus stop right outside the accommodation, making it easy to explore the area.

    Limited kitchen equipment available made cooking meals inconvenient.

    selina magnetic island in horseshoe bay was even better than our previous stay! the cozy hut was surprisingly comfortable, and we loved being surrounded by nature. the bar area with live music and dj nights was a great bonus, as was the beautiful pool area and hammocks. the staff were so helpful with recommendations and went above and beyond to ensure our stay was fantastic.

    During my recent stay at Selina in Magnetic Island, I had the most amazing experience of cuddling a Koala named Pebbles. The ranger was incredibly knowledgeable and passionate about the animals, and I got to learn so much about their natural behaviors and conservation efforts. It was an unforgettable experience that I'll cherish forever. The location of the hotel was also great, with quick access to everything on the island. The bungalows were beautifully decorated and clean, providing a comfortable and cozy stay. Despite a few minor cleanliness issues mentioned by other guests, my overall experience was fantastic. I would definitely recommend Selina for a unique and memorable stay on Magnetic Island. I highly recommend this hotel for a wonderful wildlife encounter and a relaxing getaway.

    The accommodation is perfectly located with easy access to public transportation and just a short walk to the beach. the staff are friendly and helpful, creating a welcoming atmosphere. Guests can enjoy feeding the birds and witnessing the local wildlife, such as kangaroos and koalas, creating a unique nature experience.

    The kitchen facilities are not well-equipped and have some inconvenient rules regarding dishes deposits, which may not be suitable for everyone.

    The bungalows were cute and nicely decorated, with a fridge and kettle provided. the location was great, just a short walk to the beach and restaurants. the fact that there was a bus stop right outside was convenient for getting around the island.

    The kitchen wasn't cleaned very well and lacked proper equipment. the shower floors could also use a better clean, which was not ideal.

    The location of the hostel is excellent and easy to find, surrounded by wildlife and close to the beach. Guests can enjoy the presence of animals such as koalas, wallabies, and birds around the bungalows. The kitchen, bathroom, and pool area are all well-maintained and provide a pleasant environment. The staff are friendly, always smiling, and happy to assist guests.

    There have been some concerns raised about the cleanliness of the accommodations, such as dirty beds, dysfunctional fridges, and the presence of ants in the rooms.

    stayed in a clean 3 bed cabin, well-equipped kitchen, clean toilet and shower block. Good location, friendly staff, close to the beach and restaurants. Loved the wildlife within the complex, saw koalas and heard bird calls at night. Highly recommend for a unique and comfortable stay on Magnetic Island.

    I recently stayed at Selina in Magnetic Island and I was really impressed with the value for money. The room was comfortable, clean, and had everything I needed. The location was perfect, with beautiful scenery and easy access to the beach and great dining options. The staff were incredibly friendly and welcoming, making me feel right at home.

    the communal showers were clean and modern, and the reception and bar area had comfortable seating. the staff were friendly and helpful. I also enjoyed the guided tours to see koalas and the abundance of wallabies nearby. It exceeded my expectations and I wish I could have stayed longer. Thank you!

    Absolutely nothing. 🙌.
