If you are looking for a relaxing island holiday that allows you to switch off, slow down and connect with yourself and the company you are with, then, The Little Beach Shacks 'Sava Shack', an original island shack located a short two-minute walk from the Horseshoe Bay beachfront, shops, playground, resturants, cafes, swimming enclosure and National Park walking trails is the place to stay.
The space
Sava Shack is located a stones throw away from the Horseshoe bay beachfront, shops, restaurants, cafes, seasonal swimming enclosure and playground.
Sava Shack is also located at the base of a National Park walking track which leads to secluded beaches that are only accessible by foot or ocean.
As the name suggests, The Little Beach Shacks 'Sava Shack' is a beach shack. Nothing fancy. Sava Shack is a beach shack from yester-year. NOW WITH HIGH SPEED STARLINK WIFI.
Sava Shack is best suited to couples, small families, friends and individuals. There is a queen sized bed in each bedroom.
The kitchen is basic but sufficient with fridge/freezer, microwave, kettle, toaster, pots, pans, cutlery and crockery.
Cooking facilities are outside. The outdoor patio has a gas stove, barbeque and sitting area for outdoor living and cooking.
Ground coffee, tea, salt and pepper are supplied.
I recommend any additional supplies be purchased from either IGA, FoodWorks or The Arcadia Store. There is a corner store down the street for basic groceries.
My beach shack offers a simple style of living. For some mobile phone providers reception can be hit and miss. There are some board games to keep you entertained.
The Little Beach Shacks is a duplex, one being Sava Shack and the other being Sunshine Shack. The two beach shacks have their own private gardens and sitting area however do share the same walkway entrance.
For ideas of what do and where to explore when staying at The Little Beach Shacks 'Sava Shack' please check out my guidebook .
Guest access
Here at Sava Shack, guests will have access to the entire unit and gardens of the Sava Shack.
Free street parking is also available on the nature-strip across from the property.
Free on-site parking can be accessed via the back entrance. If you do choose to park at the back of the property, please do not block access to the walkway.
Other things to note
Please respect the check-in time of 2pm and the check-out time of 10am.
Porta-cot is available on request.
Sava Shack is not a beachfront property however is only a short 2 minute walk (300 metres) up the street and across a footbridge to the foreshore.
The nature of the location means that there are friendly uninvited resident animals and insects that come along with living on a National Park Island. This includes but is not limited to: Mowgli and his girlfriend are the two Bush Turkeys you will see combing the garden. Wallabies will often hop by for a drink in the pond and a nibble of the plants. Friendly finger sized Gekos are sure to be seen climbing on the walls inside and out, Skinks (lizzards) will occasionally slide by, miniture house ants are likely, frogs (mostly outside - just keep the doors closed to avoid them hopping in) and small spiders. Oh! and if you hear a grunting noise, that's a Koala looking for a date.
As mentioned earlier, Sava Shack is a place to disconnect. For some mobile phone providers, including Telstra, phone and data reception is limited on Magnetic Island including the property. Communication can be disrupted. Please revise check-in instructions before hand.

Hello. My name is Gloria. I am a Magnetic Island local.
Whilst you explore gorgeous Magnetic Island, base yourself at one of my relaxed styles of accommodation. I have The Little Beach Shacks, a duplex, one being Sunshine Shack and the other, Sava Shack - they are their own private shacks. If you are travelling with a larger group you might like to consider booking both shacks. This way you can be close together whist still having personal space
