Newly reopened in Far North Queensland, Daydream Island’s location gives guests a front row seat to a rather enticing view.

It took two years to overhaul the resort, which now offers 277 refurbished rooms and suites (with the option of interconnecting rooms for families).

Hop in a helicopter and take in a view of The Living Reef, with a free-form coral lagoon that wraps its way aroudn the central building.

Unwind in the newly refurbished bedrooms, of which there are options for couples, families and friends to choose from. The resort offers adult-only areas too, for those seeking that little extra tranquility.

At the resort, guests can join the team of marine biologists who care for more than 100 species of marine fish, rays, coral and invertebrates – including starfish, sea cucumbers and crabs.

Three new bars bring a bevy of cocktails, wines and beers to the resort – perfect for sipping poolside.

Three new restaurants have also opened on the island. Among them is an Asian fusion restaurant, a buffet and a contemporary Australian restaurant.

The chef at Infinity, the resort’s Asian fusion restaurant, uses fresh Queensland produce to create the flavourful cuisine.

At Inkstone Kitchen & Bar, Australian flavours are brought to the table.

Daydream Island is a hub for those who love to swim, with an expansive pool area and surrounding waters.

With a choice of tropical garden or Whitsunday water views, each room presents an idyllic place to rise and shine.

Contemporary furnishings and simple ornamentation has created a laid-back yet luxe feel in the new rooms.

Daydream Island is one of 74 lush, tropical islands in the Whitsundays – home to Whitehaven Beach, a selection of bush walks and diving spots.

Bathrooms in each room have had a sleek update and contain all the creature comforts you’d expect from a luxurious island getaway.

Awash with natural light and a minimal soft furnishings in tones inspired by the setting, each room provides a tranquil sanctuary.
