Staff were amazing, couldn't have asked for a more petfect holiday. ##### Charmaine M. Stayed 6 nights in Oct 2023 ### 8/10 Good #### Benn F. 14 Dec 2020 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### A great base for exploring We used this property for 3 nights to explore Magnetic Island. This is a big house with all the bits you need for even a longer stay. The pool is a let down with it being at the end of the complex in front of another unit. It is a bit smaller than the photo's elude to and wasn't overly clear and clean looking. Overall it was a good stay. ##### Benn F. Stayed 3 nights in Nov 2020 ### 8/10 Good #### Paige C. 22 Jan 2020 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Wonderful experience! We stayed at Docks 9 for vacation for a week. The property was clean, well taken care of and the staff was more than helpful! They arranged an entire excursion for us as we were not able to use our phones and had limited internet connection. It was a wonderful experience, and I will most definitely book again next time I visit! ##### Paige C. Stayed 6 nights in Jan 2020 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Andrew B. 19 Jun 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### A great break in a great place We were very pleased with the quality and comfort of this property and would be happy to stay there again. ##### Andrew B. Stayed 9 nights in Jun 2019 This review comes from a trusted partner site and has not been verified. ### 8/10 Good #### Esther 2 Jan 2019 #### Great Location 7th, 8th or 9th stay at #9 The Docks but who's counting. Great location near the beach, shops and restuarants, but very peaceful. Clean and good amount of kitchen ware - perhaps some chopping boards could be added. Always neat and tidy which is why we keep coming back ##### Esther This review was submitted before 2018 and has not been verified. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jude 1 Oct 2015 #### A Wonderful Place We recently spent 8 nights at number 9 and had a wonderful time. Great location opposite the beach, everything provided, comfortable beds. The bus stop is a short walk up the street and you can go to the other beaches easily. Supermarket is close by as is the bottle shop and a couple of great restaurants! We would recommend this apartment for an ideal getaway!! ##### Jude This review was submitted before 2018 and has not been verified. ### 8/10 Good #### Lisa 1 Dec 2014 #### Awesome Everything we needed was there. Lots of kitchen appliances which was helpful for Xmas Day. View amazing. Didn't want to leave. ##### Lisa ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Fairmont Resort Blue Mountains MGallery Collection](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Sydney-Hotels-Fairmont-Resort-Spa-Blue-Mountains.h522363.Hotel-Information) > > [Kalima Resort & Spa, Phuket](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Phuket-Hotels-Kalima-Resort-Spa.h5200895.Hotel-Information) > > [Mandalay Luxury Beachfront Apartments](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Port-Douglas-Hotels-Mandalay-Luxury-Beachfront-Apartments.h2648804.Hotel-Information) > > [By The Sea Port Douglas](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Port-Douglas-Hotels-By-The-Sea-Port-Douglas.h3024406.Hotel-Information) > > [Heritage Trail Lodge Margaret River](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Margaret-River-Hotels-Heritage-Trail-Lodge-Margaret-River.h9624427.Hotel-Information) > > [Rochester Riverside Holiday Park](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Rochester-Hotels-Rochester-Riverside-Caravan-Park.h65341713.Hotel-Information) > > [Lilianfels Resort & Spa - Blue Mountains](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Sydney-Hotels-Lilianfels-Resort-Spa-Blue-Mountains.h872.Hotel-Information) > > [Torquay Foreshore Caravan Park](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Torquay-Hotels-Torquay-Foreshore-Caravan-Park.h6001296.Hotel-Information) > > [Club Wyndham Airlie Beach](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Airlie-Beach-Hotels-Club-Wyndham-Airlie-Beach.h2802992.Hotel-Information) > > [Bannisters Port Stephens](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Soldiers-Point-Hotels-Bannisters-Port-Stephens.h27355893.Hotel-Information) > > [The Lost Camel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Yulara-Hotels-The-Lost-Camel.h4805954.Hotel-Information) > > [Ozone Hotel Kangaroo Island](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kingscote-Hotels-Aurora-Ozone-Hotel.h2737459.Hotel-Information) > > [Dionysos Central Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Paphos-Hotels-Dionysos-Central-Hotel.h1731159.Hotel-Information) > > [Sheraton Grand Mirage Resort, Port Douglas](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Port-Douglas-Hotels-Sheraton-Grand-Mirage-Resort.h8065.Hotel-Information) > > [The Carrington Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Sydney-Hotels-The-Carrington-Hotel.h474003.Hotel-Information) > > [Wyndham Resort Torquay](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Torquay-Hotels-Wyndham-Resort-Torquay.h1927122.Hotel-Information) > > [Coral Sea Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Airlie-Beach-Hotels-Coral-Sea-Marina-Resort.h1047180.Hotel-Information) > > [Exmouth Escape Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Exmouth-Hotels-Exmouth-Escape-Resort.h4032424.Hotel-Information) > > [Glamping at Truffle Lodge](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Gretna-Hotels-Truffle-Lodge.h22239606.Hotel-Information) > > [The Copa Cabana at Copacabana](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Copacabana-Hotels-The-Copa-Cabana-At-Copacabana.h33554165.Hotel-Information) > > [Mercure Hunter Valley Gardens](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Pokolbin-Hotels-Mercure-Resort-Hunter-Valley-Gardens.h1877968.Hotel-Information) > > [Kangaroo Island Wilderness Retreat](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Karatta-Hotels-Kangaroo-Island-Wilderness-Retreat.h2041654.Hotel-Information) > > [5 Star Hotels in Grimsby](https://www.expedia.co.uk/5Star-Grimsby-Hotels.s50-0-d7517.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Heron Island Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Heron-Island-Hotels-Heron-Island-Resort.h1636471.Hotel-Information) > > [RAC Ningaloo Reef Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Coral-Bay-Hotels-Ningaloo-Reef-Resort.h4257765.Hotel-Information) > > [RAC Monkey Mia Dolphin Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Monkey-Mia-Hotels-RAC-Monkey-Mia-Dolphin-Resort.h2650828.Hotel-Information) ### Flights > [Flights from London (LHR) to Svedala (MMX)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/lhr/mmx/london-to-malmo) > > [Flights from London (LHR) to Nuremberg (NUE)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/lhr/nue/london-to-nuremberg) ### Packages > [Stoupa Holidays](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Stoupa.d6084379.Holidays-City-Breaks)
