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.

Ken
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.

Keith
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.

I stayed at a cozy and comfortable bungalow surrounded by nature. 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. 🙌
