Airlie Beach Home, hotel in Daydream Island

Providing a garden, Airlie Beach Home offers accommodations in Airlie Beach.

Clean. Laundry. Ability to adjust AC so it wasn’t as cold. The living room furniture was nice and clean. I have stayed in places where I’ve used my own blanket because the couch didn’t feel clean. Very nice! Good small selection of sauces if needed. We didn’t cook but nice updated inventory. Sometimes there is too much. This was a good recent amount. No need to waste food but also don’t need a huge selection.

    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 huge

    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 :)

    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!!

    The breakfast was fantastic and the best meal of the day. Great variety of choice and the auto pancake machine was a delight :) Live reef was the favorite part when you sit back and relax enjoy your breakfast. The king size bed was very comfortable. All the staffs were so friendly and helpful from water activities staff Tom and information desk Email highly recommended to ocean rafting Whitehaven beach tour that made the highlight of the trip. We love daydream island for our very especial 19 years wedding anniversary stay. :)

    The hotel foyer is beautiful. The pools are lovely with plenty of loungers. The hotel provides special towels to use at the pool. We were at ground level and had a balcony. We were often visited by a cockatoo, kangaroos and curlews. It was wonderful to be so close to the wildlife. The breakfast buffet was extensive and good quality with good gluten free options.

    when 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 you

    The hotel-own aquarium was fantastic. The kids and us loved watching the different types of fish, even during breakfast. The wallabies and different birds made it special as well. Both restaurants offered great dishes and kid menus at reasonable prices which we enjoyed every night.

    Currently still at the hotel. Staff have been friendly and helpful with things such as lending us umbrellas, and the pool has been really pleasant. We also enjoyed the activities that were organised during a rainy day and we were very pleasantly surprised by the size of our room

    The location and the aquarium. That was literally it. It has so much potential but disappointed so frequently. Would not go back. I have travelled and stay at a variety of different hotels across Australia, mostly for work and this was by far the worst experience I’ve had.

    Great range of activities for a young family, this is important as there is no sandy beach to play on and because the weather may prevent certain water activities such as kayaking, sailing, and the pool may be too cool to swim in for a long time during winter

    Beautiful location. All hotel staff are exceptional. Rooms are clean and bright. Best value for your money. Only 2 restaurants but the variety of options are fine for a few day visit. Breakfast buffet has a wide variety of food for all types.

    Everything from arriving to leaving was just amazing. From the start of the day at the buffet breakfast, to the ease of the travel desk booking activities, to relaxing on the island, dinner and then back to sleep was just perfect.

    The food was great especially given the current COVID situation staff were so caring and the negative Media by Channel 7 should be ashamed of themselves as Daydream Island staff and food was better then expected.
