Located in Arcadia in the Magnetic Island region, with Geoffrey Bay Beach and Alma Bay Beach nearby, Dandaloo Gardens provides accommodations with free private parking.

The property is one big beautifully maintained garden. There’s a great sense of privacy and seclusion since you really can’t see much of the property from the road. Our unit was spacious and comfortable, well laid out.

    Magnetic Island is still an affordable place for a getaway.

    Magnetic Island is still an affordable place for a getaway. Just need to be mindful of the stinger season and where you choose to swim. Horseshoe Bay and Picnic bay offer stinger nets. Alma Bay has great facilities and close to Arcadia pub.

    Arcadia is a little quieter and less touristy than the popular Horseshoe Bay. Alma Bay is a beautiful place to swim, with natural protection from stingers. Alma Bay is easily within walking distance from Arcadia. There are a couple of great convenience stores. The ferry terminal is minutes away.

    The folks running the motel were super friendly and helpful and tried to accommodate us as best as they could - letting us check in slightly early and check out slightly late, which was very much appreciated. The aircon could've been a bit better, but was fine in the end. All in all a very enjoyable stay, and a perfect location to explore from, would definitely stay there again.

    Bus services are recommended, no need to hire a car.

    Bus services are recommended, no need to hire a car. All beaches are beautiful, Alma, Horseshoe Bay, Balding, Picnic Bay, etc, you can't go wrong. Water is perfect temperature allowing swimming throughout the entire day with a morning dip highly recommended.

    Arcadia is the best bay on Magnetic island.

    Arcadia is the best bay on Magnetic island. Walk along Geoffrey Bay, head out to the old jetty and feed the rock wallabies. Swim in Alma Bay, snorkle around the rocks or jump off Bums rock at high tide. Lounge on the terraced lawn sweeping down to the beach in the shade ( if swimming is not your thing), cook your own BBQ or head over to the Pub for lunch and a swim in their pool. head up to the Waterfall pools, or hike to Nelly. Walk or bus tothe other Bays. Look out for the Koalas and wandering Curlews and Echidnas that call Arcadia home.

    Magnautical Cottage is comfy, cosy, quaint and close to Alma Bay beach - which is great. We loved the house as we don't like staying those modern concrete shoeboxes that seem to dominate the rental market these days. Nice gardens and sitting on the front porch in the wooden rocking chairs for Fives is a treat. Just across the road is the Arcadia corner store which has an amazing selection of high quality food stuffs and even pre-cooked meals for sale. Nice walking in the area. Bus stops right outside too.

    The location was fabulous, very easy walking distance to Nelly Bay, Arcadia, Geoffrey Bay, Alma Bay and a convenience store and café right across the road. House was very comfortable and heaps of room for the dog in the fully enclosed yard. You even get a small glimpse of the water from the front deck. The spotlights on the national park hill at the back were beautiful. Wonderful array of books to read, movies to watch and games to play.

    The apartment had everything you needed to stay for a few days or more. They even drove me to the apartment from the best of magnetic for no further charge. Property had a comfy bed and a nice lounge that reclined. Bedroom had a desk and two mirrors. I was content staying at the property. Walking distance to the beach and hotel. All in all very nice place to stay.

    We appreciated easy going friendly service, right down to a "no worries, no charge" approach to late checkout, just made things so much easier for our family, seldom receive this service these days. Spacious clean beds and rooms, no funky smelling carpet etc. Much better than clownsville upmarket hotel, paid more and received less. We will be back!

    What a wonderful place to stay for a Maggie Island escape! House is well laid out and comfortable even with 6 adults and a baby in residence. Kitchen was great with ample crockery, cutlery and cooking utensils. Fantastic location with direct beach access and a short walk to the pub and other restaurants and cafes. Absolutely loved it!

    Great space, decor, amenities and location, close to Arcadia pub and Geoffrey Bay. Very handy 3 min bus ride from Nelly Bay ferry terminal and so convenient to have a bus stop directly out the front of the house. Loved our friendly visiting kookaburra - a real treat for the kids! BBQ on the verandah also a bonus.

    Dandaloo is set in beautiful gardens, and Roxanne is a very helpful and caring hostess. Just a short walk in to Arcadia or if you prefer to go further afield then the bus stops just outside.....a very convenient location.
