Grand Mercure Apartments Magnetic Island
Beautiful location and great service
5 / 5
We had an amazing time at a beautiful location. Our initial room had some problems - microwave didnt work, air con was noisy, no coffee machine as promised - so without fuss we were upgraded to a larger apartment for the remaining days
