Our room was great and the staff were friendly and provided excellent communication. The property was within a 2 minute walk from the ferry terminal. Our room had a good size balcony for pm drinks and we could watch the ferries come and go. The property has 4 pools, but for us the best was in block 1 the same as our room. This pool had more sunshine than the others which could be shaded much of the day or windy. The roof top in block 1 was mostly sunny.

The property was in an ideal position to explore Nelly Bay, the marina and other areas of Magnetic Island. Unfortunately we found the apartment not as clean or as modern as we would have liked. The apartment definitely needs some maintenance and a good clean.

The apartment we stayed in was definitely not a 4-star standard, barely a 3-star to be honest. The room seemed like it hadn't been cleaned for months, floors were dirty, dust everywhere, hair in the showers. The decor was dated and cheap. The carpet looks like it hasn't been updated since the apartments first opened and that the cheapest carpet was chosen in the first place. We really expected more quality and cleanliness for the price that we paid. The pictures online are very deceiving. I can understand general wear and tear, but the wear and tear in this apartment has not been taken care of since it was established. Blinds were dirty with tears in them and rust all over the rolling mechanisms. Mirrors were rusted and chipped from the edges. I wouldn't stay here again, and I wouldn't recommend friends and family to stay either. Very disappointing for what was meant to be an enjoyable wedding anniversary weekend.

Beautiful views.I liked the spa,except bubbles don't last so be prepared to get out alot to repress the button.Tv has foxtel plus all entertainment apps but you cannot use unless u have membership. Bedrooms windows have terrible cheap blinds.Electric stoves are annoying but that is a personal viewpoint. Dishwasher and oven missing numbers and directions because of ocean salt, so u have to guess temperatures etc. Beds are average with cheap sheets.Great to have washer and dryer.The saving grace to this hotel was your employee's, the two receptionists and 2 girls in particular I met named naomi and Dounia who guided me regarding a wifi box available at reception and spent time answering questions about restaurants and things to do on the island, near the end of our conversation i realised they had already finshed work so they were helping me in their own time. Thank you Mercure for hiring such a wonderful and kind human beings in Naomi and Dounia .
