Such a lovely place, a large comfortable room with all the necessary amenities. Sally, the owner, was so friendly and helpful! Picnic Bay has some great spots for food including a beer microbrewery.

Clean and nice small apartment with a comfortable bed. Internet worked well. Checkin was smooth, the keys had been left outside in a small number locked safe. Very responsive host, who even tipped us off about a koala that had been seen nearby on the same street the day earlier. It was still there :) At night, wallabees would hang out just outside the room + weird looking birds with long legs

I don’t even know where to begin! This was a charming little box with a very comfortable bed not too far from the terminal. It’s about a 20 minute walk from the IGA, fairly peaceful and pretty. The accommodation itself had everything you needed, a cute outdoor kitchen and amazing shower (it was winter on Maggie, enjoyed some hot showers in 13 degree nights!) I truly needed a relaxing retreat after working fairly hard and got absolutely everything I wanted and more. Can’t recommend enough - not an ultra luxurious stay with a private butler and masseuse, but a fantastic representation of island life, reconnecting with nature and living simply. Short walk to a beautiful beach, quiet neighbourhood, bus stop 3 minutes away to get you to all the cool spots on the island. Can’t wait to stay here again! Didn’t get to meet Himali and Nate (sorry if I spelled that wrong) but I’m sure they’re awesome, though I do have to say that while hands off self check in process was much needed and appreciated, I always felt like I could contact the hosts if I needed anything at all. 10/10 would recommend to someone who wants a simple, fuss free and low key/affordable option to spend some days on Maggie.

We had such a nice stay! The apartment was absolutely adorable and we were so sad that we only booked it for a night. We would always come back. Nate was really helpful, always easy to contact and very forthcoming. They stored our food in their fridge so it would not go bad on the day of our departure and he even gave us a lift to the ferry terminal. We felt at home from the very first second.

    Very nice and quiet small villa with sea view, separated from the beach only by a small road. Well thought out floor plan with a small pool between the bedroom and the living elements. Picnic Bay is ideal to relax. Good restaurants and a great brewery on site. Well served by public bus.
