The room was a good size and had all the facilities we needed. The bed was comfortable and the view from the balcony was nice. The only slight downside with this property is that it is located on quite a busy road so there is some traffic noise. However it is in a convenient location for getting into the town center with all the shops restaurants etc. The breakfast was good and we had dinner in the restaurant which was very nice as well.

What Guests Said About Daydream Island:

Surrounded by azure waters, Day Dream Island Hotel greeted us with warmth and hospitality. Little did we know, the true surprise lay in the unparalleled friendliness of the staff, who eagerly assisted with every aspect of our stay from the moment we booked. From organizing activities to seamless transfers, their proactive approach ensured a stress-free experience. The Reef Rangers program/activity immersed us in the wonders of the marine world, while the array of water sports on offer at the other side of the island exhilarated our senses. With each moment, Day Dream Island Hotel revealed itself as a hidden gem, surpassing our every expectation. Wished for more gluten free and dairy free options.

Unfortunately Daydream Island felt like being in the National Lampoon’s Vacation. From having to wait 30min to check in while pregnant and with a 2yo in the heat, to unhelpful front desk staff refusing our request to get housekeeping to come earlier than 5pm, this “resort” is so overpriced and definitely not worth it. It’s 5 star prices for 2 star cleanliness, comfort and staff. I do need to acknowledge the general manager, Marcus Taylor, who we wrote to with our concerns and came back straight away addressing them, guest centric attitude. Unfortunately for him the job ahead to make this a 10/10 place is hugeTaisAustralia - 6.0Scored 6.0

Staff are very helpful and polite and certainly have brilliant customer service, if this hadn’t been the case we would’ve probably checked out of the hotel! The location is very beautiful- unfortunately the resort needs an overhaul to update its rooms, pool areas, bars and facilities. I would say this is more like a budget hotel than the luxury it should be. We stayed 5 nights and were ready to leave at the end as there’s very little to do entertaining. Be prepared to organise as many off island trips as you can! Also, food quality isn’t great especially at the prices they charge. I’d say it’s a good one night stop off if you get a good discount room. Such a shame as there’s so much potential for this resort to be amazing!!!

Great get away holiday where you can choose to relax on the island or relax and also explore the Whitsundays by taking day trips with cruise Whitsundays. Staff work very hard and they were nice and friendly. Best to book restaurants to avoid eating in the buffet for dinner. Restaurants are very good . Lovely island to relax on and I really enjoyed the live reef and stingray ponds. There is a small shop on the island that sells essentials but best to pack everything you need for your stay. Hope to return another time :)CarolineAustralia - 2.0Scored 2.0

Didn't get room we booked; got pushed down to Harbour Wing where the building accoustics are abysmal - wind-driven door slams, never-ending chair scrapes and foot-strikes from floor above, noisy children. Buffet breakfast is a bun fight to find plates, spoons, etc - and they were slow to top up cereal, orange juice, etc. Daydream? Not for us; never again!!

- From $234.30 per night7.4Scored 7.4GoodRated good· 2,027 reviewsLoved everything about Daydream Island resort. The staff were amazing. Mangers did an amazing job covering all areas of the facility. We didn't feel lost as there was always staff around to help. Housekeepers are the best, super friendly and always had our beds made cleaned daily. Restaurant staff always working hard to get our food served. I cannot fault this place as it is well managed and on point with everything it advertised. Wished we stayed longer.SofiaAustralia
- From $234.30 per night7.4Scored 7.4GoodRated good· 2,027 reviewswhen I first booked with you it was less than we’ve been charged at the hotel. Reservation made and confirmed. But when we were checking out we paid what they asked which I believe it was $50 more than what we supposed to pay. Can you please check and let me know what was the price for two nights your website suggested. thank youErolAustralia
- From $234.30 per night7.4Scored 7.4GoodRated good· 2,027 reviewsWe loved the breakfast but, due to COVID, self-service buffets were not allowed which made it very time-consuming and difficult. However, that wasn't really the fault of the hotel. The room was beautiful with great views and the staff were very friendly and helpful. We loved the underwater observatory and the outdoor cinema.
