This 4 bedroom home has been designed to allow space for everyone to enjoy. There is an opportunity to book "Sunbird Retreat" as a one bedroom home. A perfect retreat for a couple to enjoy the privacy and space a home can offer instead of the need to be in a small apartment.
The master bedroom features a queen bed and ensuite. The 2nd bedroom also a queen bed. The 3rd and 4th bedroom each have a king single bed and there is a 2nd bathroom. The open plan living, dining and front deck space offers enough room for everyone to enjoy. The front deck is furnished comfortably and includes a BBQ.
This home is fully self contained and offers the best of both worlds for a visit to Magnetic Island. You will feel like you are part of the National Park with the fringing granite boulders, native plants, wildlife and birds and yet a 5 minute stroll down the street and over a small bridge and you will be part of the Horseshoe Bay beachfront with access to local shops, eateries and amazing sunsets.

What a wonderful place! The location is perfect. Surrounded by nature (keep an eye out for rock wallabies, kookaburras, cockatoos) plus a short walk to the beach - it's an excellent choice for all, particularly families. We loved our stay here.

Just book it. Lovely house in great secluded location. Lots of wildlife passing through the garden. Enough space for the whole family.
