We had an amazing stay at Cstay in Picnic Bay. The manager, Anton, was incredibly friendly and accommodating. The room exceeded our expectations, and the whole place was well-maintained and modern. The kitchen was fully equipped, including a gas BBQ in the pool area. The beach, bus stop, and restaurant were all within a short walking distance. The free Wi-Fi was also a great perk. Highly recommended for all travelers.
Everything was fantastic.

Great value for money with spacious rooms, a well-equipped kitchen, and thoughtful complimentary items. The location is ideal, close to the beach, bars, and restaurants, with easy access to public transport. The host, Adam, was extremely helpful and accommodating throughout our stay, and bonus points for having the cutest dog, Louie!
The breakfast offerings could be improved with more variety and options.

The facilities at this accommodation were top-notch. the shared bathroom was cleaner than expected, and the tap in the room was a convenient touch. the modern kitchen was well-designed, and the verandah provided a lovely spot to enjoy the company of interesting visitors like different kinds of parrots. Although I didn't swim in the pool, it looked beautiful. the entire place was tastefully designed and equipped by the hard-working owner, who had extensive travel experience. Kudos to Anton for his achievements and dedication to perfection!
The owner, Anton, went above and beyond to make our trip enjoyable. He guided us on great walks, shared intriguing historical insights, and suggested various activities.

I had a wonderful stay at Cstay. The owner, Adam, was incredibly helpful and made me feel welcome from the moment I arrived. The room was clean and comfortable, with a cozy bed and air conditioning. The location was great, with beautiful outdoor areas, a pool, and BBQ areas to enjoy. Adam always checked in to see if I needed anything, which made my stay even better. I can't wait to return to Cstay.
The kitchen was sometimes untidy due to other guests not cleaning up after themselves. Additionally, the location was a bit isolated, making it necessary to rely on public transport.

We had a great stay at this accommodation on Magnetic Island. the facilities were modern and clean, with comfortable beds in the rooms. the highlight of our stay was the friendly and helpful staff, particularly the manager Anton. He gave us a map of the area and provided excellent recommendations for things to do on the island. the location was also convenient, just around the corner from the jetty and a bar. a fantastic place to stay!
Nothing to complain about, everything was excellent! 😊.

We had a fantastic stay at this hotel in Picnic Bay. Our room was small but cosy, with air conditioning and a fridge. The kitchen had everything we needed, and the pool was perfect for a morning swim. The host, Anton, went above and beyond to make us feel welcome and even drove us around when we needed help. It was the cleanest place we've stayed in Australia and it had great facilities like a washer/dryer and a fantastic BBQ. The location was also great, with easy access to the beach and nearby restaurants. we wouldn't hesitate to stay here again.
Totally recommend this hotel.

The staff were super friendly and helpful, offering lots of advice about the island. Anton, in particular, went above and beyond to assist us with everything we needed. The rooms were clean and comfortable, with a small fridge and sink. The kitchen facilities were impressive, with everything you could possibly need. The location was great, with easy access to other parts of the island thanks to a nearby bus stop. Plus, there was a beautiful beach just a short walk away.
Felt so much at home, nothing was too much trouble.
