While not as bougie as the Hayman Island Resort, there is a lot to do at this resort. There are 2 restaurants on the island and the food options include an asian restaurant and a burger and pizza type of place. But vegetarian options available too and a small gift shop in the main lobby. But the key thing is the amazing activities to do on the resort (swimming with stingrays, live reef, sunset beach area behind with a rainforest pathway too to hike, sailing lessons that can be done from the island and scubadiving from island. The island has two sides, one for day trip and one for people staying. Big pools to swim in plus beach side. Great views. Easy to access port to go to reef or white haven tours as well as snorkeling tours or back to mainland to airlie beach or hamilton island. Walaroos are cute as anything on the island and you can feed them apples and bread and rice etc. like they are your pet dog. The cockatoos too. There was also paint and sip and other activities as well. Very family friendly. There is an underwater observatory room(an aquarium of sorts) and morning yoga in that room. there is also a kids section and other such aquariums throughout. It is beautiful paradise

Great location, walking distance from Greyhound bus stop and a short walk into town. Jacuzzi in the bathroom was a nice surprise! Really loved the balcony area, enjoyed sitting out in the evening.

Loved our 3 night stay- staff are very friendly and the island is beautiful. Plenty to do on the island, we made the most of the snorkelling, kayaking and other activities. Also handy that the day cruises to Great Barrier, Whitehaven Beach etc do depart from Daydream Island.

The fact we were on a tropical island! Weather dependant. Snorkelling in the living reef (not experienced at snorkelling) feeding the stingrays Call out to Chelsea and the lady who recommended we do stingray splash and snorkel (reef room) Spent quality time with teenage son in room watching movies (expensive netflix holiday, could have had at home) Ps movies at resort are free, we watched way too many on out holiday

Location is outstanding, such a picturesque and calming place. Have stayed on Hamilton Island previously and Daydream is a lot more relaxed and quiet - perfect for relaxing. Resort and rooms were always clean and well maintained. Check-in process and tour desk team were great, super professional and friendly. Nothing was too much trouble which makes holiday life so much easier.
