Amaroo Rainforest Resort

Staff were amazing our room was comfortable and big Loved the pool area

Unfortunately the room didn’t live up to our expectation. Beds were uncomfortable, singles were basically unsleepable with springs and daughter slept on the sofa bed. Couch wasn’t suffice for a family and has a broken foot. Kitchen was well equipped. Property was well maintained and staff were helpful. They even moved rooms when the aircon was unusable in first room. Bird feeding at 5.30 was great. Pool area lovely. Playground good for kids. Enjoyed wallabies at night. Curlews like everywhere in North Queensland were noisy, but not as noisy as the party in the restaurant last night. Overall I was hoping for more, but it was suffice and one of the cheapest places on the island.

The staff was lovely and accommodating. We asked for a late check out and were granted it. But the property is really run down (we had cockroaches and ants in our room).

The wildlife in the area

Great pool area. Restaurant was closed while we were there, but was right next to pool and looked nice. Futon in room was only place to sit to watch tv and was very uncomfortable, but we weren't at Magnetic Island to watch tv anyway. Kitchen had full size fridge, kettle, toaster and electric frying pan and all the crockery you might need.
