Daydream Island Resort

Beautiful tropical island. Hotel service and food was amazing. They have free snorkeling. I once visited Yasawa islands in Fiji. This place is not too different. Very nice views. Excellent staff. I would recommend a 2 to 3 night stay for leisurely travellers who just want to relax. If you're a sightseeing traveller, you can see the sights easily through a one night stay

The first room was terrible, dirty even the sheets. Curtains were disgusting, with drinks stains. Second room that they changed was better. But overall, the resort should not call itself resort, from 3 pm you don’t find anything for eat, so if you want to have late lunch be careful. Note that they don’t have smart TVs (consider themselves as a 4 start resort it is necessary). Just local channels and some movies, if you don’t speak English for sure this is not the hotel for you. The last complaint is about room service. They never pick up for that, and when I finally got someone in the line, they told me room service was until 8 pm. Not good for price and absolutely not worthy as 4 star resort. Hoping the Chinese owner improves this because not in the same quality as any other resort in the Whitsundays despite the beautiful island

After reading very mixed reviews, we went ahead and booked it. The result: very mixed feelings. The location was beautiful, the sights breathtaking, the animals adorable, but when it came to actually spending time there, there wasn’t much to do. We arrived on a later ferry so we knew we wouldn’t have much time to enjoy the sun after arrival, however because of a mix up, our suitcases went missing for an hour making us miss any chance of getting in the pool while it was hot out. After, we went for dinner. There are only 2 restaurants available, and without making a reservation before hand, it’s a bit hard to go when you want. The food was ok, but expensive as one would expect from a place like this. Once dinner was finished, the evening entertainment (Alice in Wonderland screening) was already underway and we found ourselves with nothing to do at 9pm. Early night for us. The following day we planned a day of snorkelling, stingray feeding and kayaking. We appreciated the free snorkel gear as well as the clear safety instructions and recommendations of the lifeguard. The sting Ray feeding experience was amazing and it was clear the staff knew what they were talking about and were passionate about the animals. Kayaking and other water sports were cancelled however because of the high winds, leaving us, once again, with nothing to do. Early dinner (very entertaining moment with wallabies attempting to steal our food and being super cuddly), a walk around the beach, movie in the room, and early bedtime. So all in all, beautiful location with great experiences of the weather allow, make sure to bring some entertainment if the water is too cold to swim in the pool or the weather turns sour. Maybe a book or some board games? Also: if you want food in the late afternoon, make sure you bring some snacks as there is a limited selection available.

I think overall it was good to stay.....the service was great. The staff were great as they all greet me with a smile and very helpful. Overall I had a wonderful experience. The only problem was the cups in the toilet I found some marks, luckily I had some Dettol wipes. So just that little bit of problem. Otherwise overall experience is great!

Best resort to stay and best place for family and couple vocation. Beautiful room and amenities, amazing swimming pools in front of the beach. Good view restaurant with variety of cuisine type. Highly recommended.

Really happy. Very beautiful island and resort service very good. Suitable for family trip. And trip app is very convenient. Plan for next holiday.

We enjoyed the accommodation. The restaurants were a little expensive. The reef was in a poor state however the island and beaches were beautiful.

Great place with very friendly staff, super clean. Nice restaurants. Everything was great except breakfast, tiypical Aussie style white toast bread, fruit was gone very quickly, had to pay for coffee . Cheeses selection made up for cheap quality breakfast.

We had a very warm welcome and thought everyone was very friendly and helpful. Room was lovely and the food was good. Only thing we did not enjoy was the fire alarms going off in the middle of the night 2 out of 3 nights we stayed. I could accept it happening once as it, as faults happen, but the second night, being woken at 2:30am by alarms was not ok. It took a long time to get our young boys back to sleep. My eldest also has anxiety and he has been fixating on the alarms as it has clearly affected him.
