Location, pool and grounds are fantastic. The room that we stayed in could use a little bit of TLC and furniture refresh. But the balcony overlooking the pool and marina over a night time was great.

Peppers Blue on Blue Magnetic Island needs a refurbishment. Our room needed a lot of maintenance. The ensuite shower leaked through the ensuite, the roller blind unwinds itself to the floor (we had to dodgy it up), and quite a bit of dodgy patch work using black silicone was quite visible in the showers and toilets. The kitchen knives provided were all very blunt and struggled to cut even a potato, so bring your own. Some staff were not as friendly as they have been in the past. There seems to be alot of transient workers (overseas travellers/short term workers). However, the location is great with easy access to buses, supermarket, the ferry and hire car venue.

Nice hotel in a good location. Very good sized 2 bed apartment. Shame the hotel doesn't have a gym but there are nice routes for a run right from the front door. If I was booking again I'd request a room with water / pool views. Our room had a lovely balcony but since it overlooked the main carpark and bottle shop we didn't really use it.

The location is very convenient, it is right there as you get off the ferry. It is also handy to the bus and to the supermarket, cafes and restaurants in Nelly Bay. The staff were friendly and helpful. The room was clean and nice enough. The room wasn't cleaned/serviced at all while we were there, which wasn't a huge deal, but I was expecting, with the price that we paid, that it would be. The pools were freezing cold so we went in the Ocean instead and didn't use them at all. They would probably be better in Summer/hotter weather. The local rock wallabies are just a short walk away.
