Great place at quiet Picnic Bay

If you are looking for peace and quiet this is the place. Plenty of space to move around with lots of bathrooms. Lovely pool and gorgeous outlook with walking distance to a couple of places - pub, cafe and brewery. We thoroughly enjoyed our visit as I am sure you will also if you book ‘Beached”

40th Birthday Getaway

What a beautiful property. Me and a group of friends came up from Brisbane to celebrate my 40th Birthday. We had an amazing time, prime location right on the beach. The house was exactly what we wanted and the property manager was easy to deal with along with easy check in and out. Would highly recommend to everyone.

Great location

The location was excellent however overall cleanliness of the property could of been better (eg cobwebs on lights, dust and a fruit loop on the rug). We were advised about limitations of cleaning staff due to COVID, however this should of been more of a priority for COVID reasons. Also we book for 10 people, however only accommodated for 8 (eg only 8 plates and utensils, only 9 chairs at the table). For the price we paid, we had high expectations for the property which unfortunately we didn’t get. Great location and couldn’t beat the view. Great if your chasing a quiet and relaxation away from the other beaches on Maggie.

Fantastic Location

We recently stayed at Beached on Magnetic and really enjoyed the beach location. Kids were able to scooter on the path out the front, not far to stinger net and coffee! The house is really comfortable and it was great the kids had there own area. Only downfall, the Pool is really small. Love the view and the lights of Townsville at night. We would stay again!

On the beach

It's right on the beach so really easy to enjoy Picnic Bay. We had a full house including children. I thought things were going to be tight but the house is much bigger than we expected. There are three living levels so everyone had their own personal space when they needed it. The pool is small but it's heated which is a real plus. Will definitely come back.

Great location

The house was very clean and presentable. The only thing that was disappointing was that some of the airconditioners didnt work very this including the living room where we spent majority of our time in the house. The living room actually started to leak pools of water and we had to turn it off for the duration of our stay. Also some of the ceiling fans didnt work and the first night we stayed there the main room upstairs both the airconditioner and the fan turned off at 6am in the morning and made the room extremely hot.
