House was exceptional equipped with everything needed for our stay Can't beat sitting on the deck in the morning listening to kookaburras and watching the rock wallabies

    Had a fantastic stay at Selina! I stayed in a micro cabin which was perfect, and the shared facilities were all fab. Great bar and relaxing area too and so many activities on offer! Great social element at Selina too and the Koala Park tour was also an added plus! Would recommend, Horseshoe Bay is a great spot to stay.

    Cool and quirky venue for a stay on Magnetic island. Short walking distance to horseshoe bay which has a couple of restaurants and a great sunset. We stayed in one of the double rooms which are really cosy, clean and have great aircon. There is so much wildlife (literally on your doorstep) including wallabies & birds. Nice area to socialise and a large pool. All in all an excellent place to stay and would recommend to anyone considering.

    The atmosphere during Happy hour was relaxed and easy going with great music. The bungalows were very cute and cosy surrounded by stunning flora and fauna. Staff were very helpful. The best part was the breakfast with the animals- amazing!!! Their ranger Ricki, was super knowledgeable and has a great personality! First time to Maggie Island - best stay ever. We will be back!!!
