Family-friendly vacation rentals in Townsville

The stay with Carly and Mark at Nelly Bay was amazing, great location for the busiest part of magnetic Island. would definitely recommend staying here.

Really lovely self-contained villa. Very close to the beach, bus stop and Foodworks. Good value for money and hosts were easily contactable and accommodating.

Excellent location and facilities at a great price. Highly recomend.

Fantastic stay - we've stayed at Club Natutique a few times now and it's always so good. Great location, peaceful, private space in your bungalow with a great shared kitchen facility. Highly recommend!

Beautiful apartment in a beautiful location. Has everything you needed and more

Cute little island hut with lots of clever additions to turn it into a tropical oasis. The outdoor shower/s were definitely a highlight. The indoor kitchen was fully equipped with great appliances and space to gather. The outdoor kitchen and bbq area was another creative addition that added to its island charm. It was also a 5 minute walk to the Horseshoe Bay beach front with it's restaurants, convenience store, ice cream and patrolled beach. A delightful, home away from home. Thank you Brett and Janelle.

Thanks for letting us stay in a very comfortable and well equipped unit for a couple of weeks while we waited to move south. Highly recommend.

Lighthouse was amazing to stay at. Great location and view. The apartment had everything we needed and the hosts were easy to get onto. It was comfy and clean. A great place to stay.

We had such a fantastic stay at The Butterfly House - really quirky decor and felt lovely and homely for our stay. Location was brilliant, just a very short walk down to the beach and shops/ cafes/ restaurants at Horseshoe Bay. Hosts communicated well and facilitated a lovely holiday!

We stayed at Ruffinos for a extended period of time and it was absolutely perfect for what we needed. Really spacious for a family of 4 plus 2 dogs. Nice and secure parking set back from the road and peaceful. Trish & Ruffino were lovely hosts, super friendly, relaxed and helpful if and when needed. Definitely recommend!

Quite expensive, but a cute house. Lovely gardens and outdoor space. All you need for a weekend getaway, or longer.

Ludbrooks is awesome and perfect for a family. We had an awesome time and will be back.

We had an incredible stay at Karen & Mark’s home. They were exceptionally hospitable, going above and beyond to ensure we felt welcome and comfortable throughout our visit. The location is ideal—right in the heart of everything, making it easy to explore the area. Staying in a traditional Northern Queensland home was such a unique and wonderful experience. The house is clean, and the area is full of character, and gave us a real sense of the local culture. It was well-equipped, and perfect for relaxing after a day of exploring. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience—highly recommend this place!

Lovely , clean spacious accommodation in a great location , reasonably priced. Great view from the balcony Would definitely visit again

What an amazing little place! Such a perfect getaway for the family, plenty of homely touches and activities for the kids. We will be back!

Excellent location and very responsive host, very happy will stay again if its available at the time

We had a wonderful stay at Karen's apartment. Karen is a great hostess. The apartment corresponded to the description and pictures. Very good value for money. I would be happy to come back.

Great location and ideal for large families. Quick walk to the local pub and the beach. Have recommended it to other large families.

This property is perfect for families with a park right and a large open space next door as well as access to river to feed the turtles at the back of the property. The house has everything you need. It is an older style house with modern bathrooms but it has a charm to it. It is in a quiet peaceful area of Townsville but close enough to everything you would want to do. We will stay again. Michelle is a very accommodating host and happy to help where she is able. You will not regret booking this space.

Was an excellent space for 6 people clean today and a fantastic area

we had a great stay at Mark's place. really responsive host, friendly and provided extra help when needed. we stayed there, my partner and I wih my parents. we all enjoy our stay in this peaceful area. A big wallaby was coming into the garden every night, lot of birds. place is well located and on this side of the island you have internet, which is good if you still need to be in contact with the world. thanks again for everything!
