The refurbished Daydream Island Resort is located in the heart of Queensland's Whitsunday Islands. The stylish and tranquil retreat offers modern rooms and suites with free WiFi and a full buffet breakfast. The resort features an open-air cinema, outdoor pools and three bars and restaurants.

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

Located at Airlie Beach, which is know as the gateway to the Whitsunday Islands, Club Wyndham Airlie Beach provides modern accommodation in relaxed, tropical surroundings. You can unwind on your balcony with sea breezes and water views and enjoy the infinity pool at the property.

We stayed here for 3 nights to go and see the Great Barrier Reef while enjoying a relaxing getaway. The apartment had the most spectacular views along with really comfortable beds and huge space for 4 of us. The staff were really friendly and accommodating. The highlight was the heated jacuzzi by the infinity pool where we enjoyed a few drinks and chatter. The breakfast was 10/10 and overall we will definitely be back 😊

    The resort itself is not bad, bedrooms renovated and fairly new facilities in the main area of the resort. But the older part of it is pretty dead like a ghost town, sports facilities pretty old and not taken care off. The snorkeling options are all enclosed in tanks rather than open in the ocean, and pretty pricey for what it is. Not proper sandy beach to swim due to the reefs. Outdoor cinema was not working.

    What an amazing place to stay. Cannot recommend this resort enough. The staff provided an excellent customer experience. We were even lucky enough to be upgraded upon check in to a room with an ocean view. Facilities provided were exceptional. The room we were given was clean and very comfortable. Only downfall is that we didn’t stay long enough!

    It was a very chill resort with lots of beaches and pools. I really enjoyed that almost all the water sports were free to do at any time. The staff at both restaurants were so lovely and made sure to change menu items so they could fit my allergies.
