The Pines

On Magnetic Island in Horseshoe Bay, just steps from Magnetic Island and a 3-minute drive to Magnetic Island National Park. Close to Horseshoe Bay Beach, Horseshoe Bay Lagoon Conservation Park and the Coral Sea — a chill island base for beach days and bush walks.

A cottage-style vacation home with air conditioning, a full kitchen (full-sized refrigerator/freezer and oven) and a private furnished patio. Enjoy a terrace and garden, plus a private bathroom with separate bath and shower and a deep soaking tub. In-room entertainment includes digital programming and a DVD player; the front desk is staffed during limited hours.

Barbecue area and grills for alfresco meals, on-site laundry, terrace and garden spaces. Steps from beaches and parkland — wake up to sea-breeze mornings and head straight out for sand and trails.

Self-catering ready: a full kitchen for home-cooked meals and outdoor barbecue grills for casual dinners on the patio.
