Magnetic Daze, Picnic Bay

"Our recent stay at Magnetic Daze was wonderful. Perfect for our extended family with well designed sleeping areas which gave everyone there own space. Picnic Bay is lovely to wind down after lots of sun, sand and waves (yes waves!) at Alma Bay. Very well stocked kitchen which allowed us to cook/ bbq most meals which is a good option for family groups. Part of our group was from Perth WA and they were very impressed. Only improvement suggested would be to include wifi as this is quite a high end...
