Maggies Beach House is located on Horseshoe Bay of Magnetic Island. It is a large backpackers accommodation in a relatively new high-rise style building. The hostel features an outdoor pool and pool tables, and is just steps away from the beach. The dorm rooms are very basic, but clean and air conditioned. The kitchen is somewhat small, and the elements do not get very hot, so cooking for yourself can be a challenge. Gecko's, the connecting bar, offers good food and a backpackers dinner for a few dollars (beware of the serving size if you have an appetite!).
There are some souvenir shops along the main stretch near Maggies, and a skate park within walking distance. The atmosphere is warm, but most of the mingling goes on down on the street at the nearby pubs. Horseshoe Bay is equipped with a stinger net, so you can swim there year-round. Maggies is a $4 bus ride from the ferry.
