Our fourth stay at Shaws, loads of space for six of us, clean and tidy. Nice bathrooms and kitchen. Location to almost die for right on the Shore at Horesehoe Bay, get a front balcony and watch the sun slip slowly away. Restaurants, bars and a shop right on the doorstep.

We spent 2 night at Shaws on Shore on Magnetic Island. The accommodation was fantastic. Plenty of space in the apartment, immaculately clean, and great ocean views. The decor is a little 80's but don't let this put you off. We found the apartment to be very comfortable and enjoyable to stay in. The manager Margaret was a real pleasure... More

Just spent 4 glorious days at Shaws on the Shore, Maggie Island. Where to start? Beautiful accomodation; spotlessly clean, extra spacious, fabulous ocean views, bright, airy, stunning tropical decor! I am not kidding, this place has it all! Our unit was completely stocked with all the comforts of home in the kitchen, bath, bedroom, living room, and laundry room! We... More

Horseshoe Bay is at the end of Magnetic Island looking out over Pacific, it's not that far from Townsville but feels a world away! Having spent the weekend these apartments are definatley the place to stay, close to the restauraunts and above the supermarket they are also directly across from the stinger enclosure and park/playground/BBQ. As others have said the... More

By far one of the best places I have stayed any where in the world. Immaculate apartments spotlessly clean with every thing at your finger tips. Going to sleep at night with the waves gently lapping shore. I was so lucky to find this area and would highly recommend it to any one. Margaret is warm,kind and friendly. The whole... More

Extremely clean and roomy are two of this properties best features, along with prime location on the best beach that Magnetic has to offer and there is few. We stayed 3 nights and didnt want to leave. The on site manager Margaret was very helpful and easy going. Huge flate screen tv with reception was also a plus, if you... More

Shaws is above a small supermarket (very expensive) across the road from a beautiful, long, sandy beach. There was a restaurant also beneath it that served fantastic baramundi burgers for around $18. The room was so spacious - bigger than 3 hotel rooms. It was fully self contained, including a separate laundry with washing machine/dryer. The kitchen had everything we... More

We stayed at a 2 bedroom on the top level, and boy was it spacious for 3 persons! There would be enough room and furniture (and a very large screen TV) to throw a party for a whole crowd, but why would you - Horseshoe Bay is on your doorstep and can provide all the entertainment you need!

I emailed direct and Melanie was extremely helpful and our accommodation was as we arranged and requested - a 1 bedroom with ocean views. The room was spacious, clean and had everything you needed for our 3 night stay. We didn't really like the fabrics used in the decor, however, it was colourful and cheerful and I suppose suited the... More
