The whole holiday to daydream exceeded our expectations.
My only recommendation is to have control over the temperature of the room, for me it was too cold. a balcony would have been nice, but we were very happy with the room.
Everything about Daydream Island resort was very relaxing and enjoyable . I especially liked the living reef experiences with the Stingray feeding and the guided snorkel tour in the living reef pool .
What a beautiful small yet well located island, only 40 minutes launch from Hamilton Is.
My husband and I had a truly relaxing time celebrating our golden wedding anniversary.
The island offers so much particularly for families with young children who are fascinated by the many Australian animals that inhabit the island, as well as the multitude of sea life. You can do as much as you like or as little, depending on the type of holiday you seek. Plenty of water sports, including swimming, snorkelling, kayaking, boating are on offer and you can even travel to other nearby islands via launch. The two main restaurants on the island served a variety of food that catered for young and old and the fine dining experience was truly memorable.
The staff we dealt with were friendly yet professional and nothing seemed to be too much trouble. We loved our stay and would love to return next time with our family and grandlings.
