About this property

Avalon at Arcadia on Maggie

Avalon at Arcadia

According to Celtic mythology, Avalon was an earthly paradise generally described as a land of plenty where eternal spring, health, and harmony reigned and Arcadia came to apply to any idyllic location or paradise. Well, Magnetic Island certainly is an idyllic location and our home at Avalon is a little piece of paradise you can experience. Come and enjoy our split-level, 3 bedroom home set in bushland with a backdrop of national park, a natural seasonal creek teeming with wildlife. The house is situated 7 minutes walk from beautiful Alma Bay, fabulous for swimming, rock climbing and lazing.
Avalon is ideally suited to a family or couples. Split levels means there are multiple retreats that suit all. On the lower floor is the main air-conditioned bedroom with en-suite and flat screen TV/DVD. Just step off the deck to enjoy watching the birdlife whilst relaxing on the chaise lounges. The Asian inspired main lounge opens to a wide deck with outdoors settings and Weber barbecue. On the next level is a kitchen, which is built for entertaining. Masses of bench space and fully equipped kitchen make self-catering easy. Another more formal dining area completes this level. You can also escape to the back yard and national park for some quiet time bird watching and enjoy a refreshing outdoor shower. The top floor has two bedrooms, a separate bathroom with tub and shower and separate toilet as well as a sitting/reading room with flat screen TV. The top deck additionally has a verandah that puts you up amongst the treetops. The house is fully airconditioned with fans in all rooms. Large screened doors and windows open all areas up to natural breezes.
Avalon is a special place where you can find solitude, or alternatively, a great place to relax with friends or family. The best of both worlds!

Peaceful stay amongst nature
Loved the leafy surrounds and the endless entertainment from the bird life. The resident koala was a bit noisy but we’ll forgive him for that! The house had lots of space and everything you could need, even an esky and snorkel gear. Wifi & reception is very poor but that turned out to be a positive as it kept the kids off their screens

Magical!
We had a fantastic holiday at this property. The house is spacious and well equipped, and the owner is responsive and always helpful. A koala greeted us upon our arrival - wow! The surroundings are also beautiful and it is close to Alma Bay where there is fantastic snorkelling right off the beach. Would recommend a stay at this property!
