Shaw on Shore is located on Pacific Parade right opposite the swimming nets of Horseshoe Bay. Below the complex is a small supermarket Foodworks and a restaurant. We had been advised to stay at Horseshoe Bay due to its North facing location plus its well maintained beach with a lifeguard. The accommodation is rated as luxury, and this may be... More

Saw the premises from the road at Horseshoe Bay and had a look. Although there were only 2 of us, we were given the top floor corner 3 bed apartment and given access to the master bed and ensuite. We were only planning to stay one night but stayed 2. Everything is a short walk away. Would definitely come again... More

Staff were rude and unpleasant. The rooms where messy and unclean. On check out, management were very uncorganized and unprofessional. Also the Manager performed unauthorised transactions using my credit card details. Their criminal activity has prompted my bank in started a formal investigation against their crimes.

We stayed four nights here for a family holiday. It really was spacious! This meant everyone had plenty of space to themselves (something I value on holidays ... especially when you want a break from kids). The apartment was perfectly clean and bedding etc. was very comfortable. Little things like the bowls of water outside the apartment to wash sand... More

Our fourth stay at Shaws, loads of space for six of us, clean and tidy. Nice bathrooms and kitchen. Location to almost die for right on the Shore at Horesehoe Bay, get a front balcony and watch the sun slip slowly away. Restaurants, bars and a shop right on the doorstep.

We spent 2 night at Shaws on Shore on Magnetic Island. The accommodation was fantastic. Plenty of space in the apartment, immaculately clean, and great ocean views. The decor is a little 80's but don't let this put you off. We found the apartment to be very comfortable and enjoyable to stay in. The manager Margaret was a real pleasure... More

By far one of the best places I have stayed any where in the world. Immaculate apartments spotlessly clean with every thing at your finger tips. Going to sleep at night with the waves gently lapping shore. I was so lucky to find this area and would highly recommend it to any one. Margaret is warm,kind and friendly. The whole... More
