Yummy breakfast and good balcony

Great place to stay with a lovely breakfast. Good location near the beach, but a little bit away from the main street which suited us well. Everything walkable in Horseshoe Bay and very close to the bus stop which was also useful. Bed was very comfortable and we really enjoyed the private outdoor space provided by the balcony. Good kitchenette as well.

Fabulous

Great place to stay. Having a cooked breakfast delivered to your door is definitely a highlight, especially when you had about 7 different choices and they were all excellent, healthy and filling. The building itself is an old Queenslander, timber decks and floorboards, balcony. Four different rooms, so can't get too busy or noisy. The host, Deb, was friendly and caring. The accommodation is well shaded with trees and birdlife, but the pool area could do with some more sun. The location is a short walk to Horseshoe Bay beach and it's many cafe's, resturants and a pub. There is a convenience store and access to many fascinating walks. Highly recommended for an enjoyable stay in magnificent Magnetic Island.

I am from Nashville Tennessee USA and visited my partner who lives in Townsville QLD over the winter holidays. We stayed at True North for a couple of nights during my visit. Everything was perfect! The breakfast served in the mornings was delicious with ample portions to hold us over till dinner time. The room fridge was stocked with coffee, milk and sugar with a water pitcher as well. The room also was equipped with anything else we needed during our stay in the way of cups, cutlery, kettle, and toaster. The property itself was gorgeous and felt very private amongst other holiday stays in the area. It was also very walkable to Horseshoe Bay with multiple bus stops close by if not feeling up for a walk. We had a great time and definitely plan to come back on our next visit to the island 🏝️

I frodige omgivelser

Super morgenmad og sød vært. B&B siger det hele god seng og god morgenmad man kunne vælge mellem 5 forskellige varme retter og to slags juice. Men man skal ikke være for sart med insekter, da det er i et hus med meget frodig have. Bussen er nem at benytte, men brug bus plan da den ikke kører så tit. Benyttede ikke poolen, da den ikke så så indbydende ud.

Loved this place

Loved our stay at True North B&B. Deb is an excellent host - very hospitable, friendly and helpful. Her breakfasts are next level! The bed is comfortable and the room is very spacious. It is a nice quiet spot and the pool is so refreshing. If staying on Magnetic Island Horseshoe Bay is the place to stay - beautiful beach, a number of great restaurants, access to walking tracks, a good bus service (we had our own car but the bus was quite regular). If we return to Magnetic Island we would definitely come back here. Thanks Deb for making our Magnetic Island trip so memorable.

Wonderful rooms and addiional facilities( shaded pool, bbq area). Short walk to restaurants. Bars and beach at gorgeous horseshoe bay. Bus connecting horeshoe bay to ferry terminal runs past the front of the building. Short bus ride to the start of the famous forts walk. Almost guaranteed to see Koalas in the wild on this stunning walk
