Daydream Island

Daydream Island resort is one of the best family holiday locations anywhere in the Whitsunday Islands. It is one of the oldest resorts in the Whitsundays and has seen several rebuilds and refurbishments over the years. At one stage. it was purchased by a buyer who removed all of its accommodation to Hayman Island to create the first resort there. The existing resort was built in the 1990's and was purchased in 2001 by Vaughn Bullivant who wanted to create the ultimate health spa resort. He completely refurbished the resort and added a spa that has 16 individuals treatment rooms, plus a complete range of health spa services. The resort also has complete facilities to make it the ultimate family holiday destination with a kids club, fantastic swimming pols, the best putt putt golf course in Australia and a huge "living reef" aquarium with live corals and many of the tropical fish species that you will see on the Great Barrier Reef, itself.
