Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

I had the most wonderful time at the B&B. Philip is the most inspiring person I‘ve ever met. He not only showed me the island in a very unique way but made me understand nature more. Moreover he really cared I will have a great time. He even cut vegetables & fruit to take out and feed the wallabys. The accommodation was perfect. I could see in every corner how he takes care of the rooms and the garden. Same for the breakfast, healthy, delicious and nicely prepared. If you are looking for a unique experience and get a real taste of living on the island, you have to stay at Philips B&B.

Staying at Magnetic Island B&B was like being at home! But with extras, the owner helped us big time with making the most out of our short stay on “Maggie”. Breakfast was wonderful and the garden is like a big zoo with wild Gallahs, Kockatoos and Wallabies coming to say hi regularly.

We absolutely loved staying with Philip at Magnetic island B&B. He showed us the best places and the kids loved the island and the B&B. We loved the rich nature around the B&B and across the island. Would recommend it to everyone!

This beautiful bed & breakfast is one of the best I’ve ever visited. Situated very near Horseshoe Bay on the exquisite Australian island known by the locals as Maggie. Phil, the owner, is a remarkable man, and truly cares for his guests. If you’re looking for a high point in your Australian adventure, visit Magnetic Island Bed & Breakfast.

I would give this more than 5 stars if I could !! absolutely loved it here and like all the previous comments Phil is a fantastic host who can't do enough for you, he knows everything about the island and can plan it all for you, the property itself is set back from the main road and a few minutes' walk to the bus stop which will take you all over the island, horseshoe bay is probably around a good 20 minute walk, the rooms are spacious and clean with a very large bathroom and lovey shower. the wonderful breakfast is severed outside whist you watch all the wildlife around you as the property sits on the edge of the national park. I would highly recommend this place to anyone who visit the island, you will not be disappointed!!

Philip, the host, was fantastic, took us around the island and showed us short cuts to the beach. His breakfast are amazing fresh fruit, eggs and cold cuts. The accommodation very clean, airy and light, bed was comfortable too! Close to Horseshoe Bay with great pubs, restaurants and cafes. Kayaks, S.U.P. available to hire and a enclosed stinger net for swimming. Fantastic sunset on the beach, at the far end red sunset. All up a fantastic experience!

Philip was a most extraordinary host who went out of his way to do everything possible to ensure we had an exceptional stay. Loved everything about our stay at Philip's place, which was spacious, quiet, comfortable and exceptionally clean. Fabulous breakfast and everything we could need was provided. Can't recommend it highly enough. A uniquely wonderful experience.

I can't fault the accommodation or the host. The accommodation was just perfect, so peaceful/tranquil and a great location. The breakfast provided by Philip was fantastic, not to mention his banter and funny stories. His dog Griffin was an added bonus, he greeted us each morning with a new toy. Philip could not do enough for us, he was such a great host, his local knowledge was priceless, made our time on the island so much more enjoyable.

Thanks Philip for going above and beyond. Nothing was too much effort - great room which was clean and spacious (even an extra room - as it was available - for our teenager rather than a pull out bed); travel tips and restaurant bookings done for us; wonderful breakfast.

We spent 3 nights in this beautiful home and Philip was an excellent host with a perfect hand for a great breakfast. He recommended great places to go to, affordable and good restaurants and showed us spots where we could see cute koalas, feed wallabies and find turtles on the beach. It was a great pleasure to talk to Philip while enjoying a cup of tea in his backyard. Thank you, Philip, for a wonderful time at your Bed and Breakfast. You are a really special person! And Griffin is the best dog for this place. Kira, Juergen and Alwin from Germany.
