Bright Point Double Absolute

Our appartment is the pick of this complex. If you wanted to be any closer to the ocean you'll have to be on a boat.

The complex has 4 spectacular pools and is only a two minute walk to the Island ferries, bus service, supermarket and nearest restaurant. You'll absolutely love Magnetic Island.
