Beautiful grounds, and we loved our cabin. It felt roomy and cozy at the same time. It was great having our own tea kettle, coffee and refrigerator. The staff were always available and we loved the option of coming down to the main area for coffee and/or breakfast, lunch, drinks, dinner etc. We loved the variety of travelers playing pool, cards, ping pong and chatting. Beautifully decrated with custom mural and tapestries.

Koala behind out tent!
This place has a lovely, chilled vibe. We heard a koala out the back of our tent around 5.30am (grunting quietly) so we got out slowly and watched it climb the tree and eat. Magical early morning moment!!. We stayed in a glamping tent - it was basic but had a proper bed, side tables, bean bag and lights. Loved it here, wanted to stay longer. Will be back.

Liked: Cleanliness
Lovely stay in the cabin! Fridge and AC in the room which was perfect! Events on each night if you want to get involved. Close to a bus stop and walking distance to the beach. Staff were all lovely and helpful. The bathrooms were fine for us but not particularly clean even after their daily clean. Slight downside was guests do not keep the communal kitchen clean and a lot of the gas hobs don’t work. Would definitely recommend staying here in the cabins! I would not recommend staying in the glamping tent as they are currently being treated for mould.

Had a fantastic stay in a glamping tent. Could have had more bedding as it was a little cool at night. Facilities were great. Hired a car but there is a bus stop out the front. Great social area with pool table. Lots of wildlife around. Would stay there again.

Selina was great! We stayed in a family room. Nice clean room and very quiet. Staff members were all super friendly. Bus stop is right outside the property and property is walking distance to Horseshoe Bay. Live music during happy hour was great. Chill vibe and environment.

Such a beautiful spot tucked inside nature. The cabin we booked had some small issues which I presume came from wear and tear but at the price, they should be sorted. The bathroom and toilet doors were stiff and hard to manipulate. The AC/heater was so frustrating to operate. The fan switch didnt work properly. All that aside, this place was so convenient and cosy. The communal kitchen had all the amenities one would need. It was kept ckean and tidy. Having the var there where we could have a drink aftwr a long day of exploring waa perfect. And being able to just order a meal if too lazy to cook was added bonus. The place had the most relaxed vibe and you couldnt help but wallow in holiday mode

Disliked: Cleanliness
Private room not worth it as incredibly noisy. Not cleaned (including bins, towels) for whole stay. Hostel grounds were nice (although cooking hard as no plates in kitchen and bin overflowing). The atmosphere at the hostel was very nice and staff on reception were nice (but WhatsApp line doesn’t seem to work at all). Pool nice and clean and general facilities in the hostel really nice. Great location.

Liked: Property conditions & facilities
Not the usual selina standard
Room was nice, location was great and desk staff were helpful but the place was really poorly run. The kitchen was tiny for the number of people, lots of things were faulty and was really poorly stocked with crockery. The bar had ran out of drink and the kitchen had ran out of food. Being on an island isn't really an excuse for that, it's only a 40 minute ferry ride to townsville. Some of our friends were in a room (a 4 person dorm on an old bus) which had no lock which was a little odd. In some cheaper hostels this might be fine, but people often pay a premium to stay in selinas
