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 .

I was disappointed with this property. For the amount you pay per night and the reputation of the mecure, i will not be staying here again, nor would i recommend it. We stayed in a 2 bedroom apartment, which was advertised as an ocean view. We were situated behind the pool and spa, so we had a view of that instead. Faults with the accommodation. My biggest issue was that that room didnt lock. The area where you enter the back patio, the gate didnt shut competely, so it wasnt lockable. And then the lock on the door to the actual apartment has shutters next to it which you can stick your hand through and open the lock on the inside of the door, from the outside. The floors were wet when we first walked in. The main shower was mouldy. There was what I am assuming to be food splatter all over both the bedroom walls. The spa was very low in water so you basically sat with half of your body exposed and the jets are on a timer for 5 minutes so you have to get out and turn the bubbles back on every 5 minutes.

It doesn’t get much better. New management have worked hard to regain their reputation and have succeeded in my opinion. Better than we expected, the room was immaculate and we felt like we were home. Friendly receptionist made us feel welcomed from the second we arrived and I can’t say enough to thank them for an amazing stay. Well done.
