Loved every bit of it. The transfer from Hamilton island to the daydream island location is a dogs breakfast. Very limited information on this and also can not rent a cart at the airport.

Not too busy. Did not have to fight for a poolside beach chair. Kids met other kids and found things to do. Fantastic. Room cleaned daily if wanted. If not - $10 credit applied to end of stay bill. Good incentive. Great food. Only thing noticed many times that was a little annoying was when getting a drink / coffee shop service or paying front desk bill - only one person serving. Take order. Make coffees. And have to wait. . Ok if you were not in a hurry for tours or just wanting quicker customer service. Overall. Great though.

The pools aren’t heated so keep that in mind There’s no sign at the spa to not put your head under water so tonnes of unsupervised kids in there diving under the water splashing it in your face The staff are kind and helpful There’s no room service and only 2 restaurants and you have to book to get into the cheaper dining Kids eat free was very helpful though The food gets repetitive after a week of being there The breakfast wasn’t that must different choices It’s a great place to unwind though Note the beaches aren’t sand anymore it’s covered in coral unlike what I read online so make sure you get coral shoes

The property is good for a relaxing break however, the restaurants didn’t provide clean food eg, grilled fish and salad. The fish on the menu had Asian greens drowned in sauces. Otherwise the property overview is good and apparently it ticks a lot of boxes for many families.

Felt a little too isolated. Wish there were more options for those staying on the island to be able to get out off the island without the expensive transfers. After 2 nights we were ready to leave. The weather unfortunately didn't help and the pool was extremely cold so that was out of the question. Restaurants book out well ahead so the first night was wasted eating takeout.

The tanks and open waterways that displayed tropical fish was really great. The dining options are very limited, breakfast area was always full of birds both walking around and flying around which was unhygienic. Birds were stealing food off the tables and the buffet area. The staff were unconcerned and unbothered. Everything needed a bit of work, from rusted table legs through to aging facilities.
