Great set up of house with 2 pavillions. Kitchen on the small size but adequate, and loved the outdoor BBQ and kitchen outside. Loved eating our meals outside under cover. Great location in Picnic Bay, walking dustance to cafe and pub. Love getting around and seeing Magnetic Island. Beautiful weather. Quick response from management with TV not working, had a replacement the next day. Overall loved our stay at Kadani.
