We stayed at the Tropical Palms for two nights and found it to be a really lovely, laid-back place. The rooms had everything we needed, the pool was very pretty, and the owners were lovely and very accommodating. It was a nice, relaxed place to base ourselves for a couple of days on Magnetic Island. The fish paintings in our... More

Stayed here over new years, there was a minimum four night rental per room. However it was very good value despite taking four nights. There is a pub around the corner or cooking facilities and communal BBQ at the apartment. The outdoor BBQ area and pool are pleasant. There are 12 apartments in the complex. I would stay there again... More

This place is in a good spot in Picnic bay and is a short walk to the shops and the beach. The service was sometimes good but they kept replacing the flat batteries in the TV remote with more flat rechargables which was annoying.. The Motel was nice & clean and cheap with polite staff, that is until we decided... More

This place was inexpensive and so the cleanliness of the room and the quality of the room was a nice surprise! The room was self-contained, allowing us to save money by cooking our own meals. The staff were friendly and we will definately be back!

Good friendly service and a good clean basic room, close to a pub / restaurant and a few small shops. Onsite 4wd or scooter rental was a bonus. The lovely lady owner / manager was only too happy to help with suggestions.
