The room is wonderful! We loved everything about it! So comfortable, and having the "jungle" right there was fabulous! The decor was perfect and the bed luxurious! We loved the birdlife and the occasional wallaby. Debbie is a superb hostess, and so knowledgeable about the island, with really interesting stories to tell! The breakfast was healthy and enormous! I can't recommend the place enough!
Nothing! We loved everything about it!

Debbie is a fantastic host, the location in the treetops is amazing and the (generous) space itself is delightful. An added bonus is that the bus which runs to and fro between all the Island's best spots is a only very short walk away.

immaculate presentation. beautifully furnished, attention to detail. very comfy bed, excellent shower, gorgeous outdoor decking looking directly at rainforest. cockatoos looking straight back at you! lovely fridge style breakfasts too. the dawn chorus of birds is magnificent, but noisy! also, wallabies come and go. delightful! the property is quite a way out of Nelly bay but the excellent bus service runs right by a minute away. don't hire a car, they can't go anywhere that the bus can't. day ticket on bus $6. car hire for a day $70 minimum.
the room and decking are in deep shade so there is not much sunlight. I think this is so you get to see the wildlife close up. also the chap at the property uses the afternoons to hose and wash the decking below which can be a bit of a nuisance if you are there. we asked for this to stop and it did.

This is the perfect little oasis from which to explore Magnetic Island and retreat back to your own little slice of rainforest. The attention to detail in every aspect of this accommodation, from lovely natural scented toiletries to local themed artworks and vintage styling - it was a perfect escape. I also can't leave a review without mentioning the extravagant full breakfast that the host provided each morning, complete with delicious tropical fruits.
Nothing - well done!

From the moment we arrived we felt like we had stepped into a secret piece of paradise ✨️ The room and bathroom were well designed and presented beautifully. Relaxing on the verandah with the wildlife and lush tropical gardens made for a perfect escape. The breakfast provided each morning was a scrumptious way to start the day!! Will definitely recommend and will surely be back!!

Stunning property set in the forest. You feel that you are tucked away in the rainforest but the town is so close by so it is the perfect location. Relaxing on the balcony listening to all of the wildlife is a very special experience. The host is so lovely and goes out of her way to make your stay very comfortable. Highly recommended.

Breakfast was excellent with great fresh fruit platter, cereals and toast. The location is beautiful with abundant wildlife right out the backdoor. A true Queensland rainforest experience. The place is beautifully furnished with antique furniture.
The 4 poster bed although ornate was a little soft and did rattle a bit more than I would like.

It is a lovely and cosy place. Every morning, we woke up with cockatoos in front of our windows, flying around from tree to tree. The bus stop is just 3 minutes away, and we really appreciated that the house wasn't too close to the main areas, as the place was peaceful and we enjoyed the nature sound. We recommend this place 100%
