Daydream Island Resort
Located just five kilometres from the mainland, Daydream Island is one of seven islands of the Molle Group, located in the heart of the Great Barrier Reef in Queensland, Australia. The only accommodation on this island, Daydream Island Resort is peacefully set on the island’s esplanade, overlooking the iridescent waters of The Coral Sea and capturing the natural surroundings of the ocean and tropical foliage.
The only way to reach the island is by boat on a 30-minute ride (one way). Catamaran transfers travel directly to Daydream Island from Hamilton Island Airport (HTI). Airport and ferry transfers are not included. Please plan accordingly.
