Top Daydream Island Hotel Reviews

Coral Sea Resort

10/10 Excellent

"Gorgeous hotel, gorgeous location"

Martinique Whitsunday

10/10 Excellent

"We loved our stay at the Martinique Whitsunday! The pool was fabulous and never too busy. The views from our deck and apartment were stunning of Airlie Beach and the marina. The apartment was spacious and updated appliances such as a smartfridge with a water and ice dispenser we found very useful. As described the complex is up a hill but worth it for the views and it is still close to walk to everything in the main strip and to Woolworths. The bathroom had a double sink and shower with good water pressure. The expedia listing was very accurate and the pictures described the unit we received. I would highly recommend booking for your stay."

Magnums Airlie Beach

10/10 Excellent

"We had a lovely stay in the queen cabin – it was nice and spacious! Being right next to the Wi-Fi area meant we could get online easily (though not all rooms have in-room access). The mattress wasn’t the best, but otherwise the room was comfortable. It was also generally quiet (although we stayed mid-week so it wasn’t very busy). The staff were lovely and friendly, and the kitchen had everything you need to make a quick lunch or dinner. There’s a Woolworths supermarket about 30 seconds walk from the kitchen too."

Palm Bay Resort

10/10 Excellent

"Palm Bay was a beautiful location to spend our honeymoon. Staff were very friendly, so many national park trails to walk, plenty of places to snorkel and high quality food from the restaurant. We loved going out on the supplied paddle boards to check out coral or watch the sunset. Definitely recommend if you're looking for a nice place to relax and be in nature!"
