Great Barrier Reef, Australia - New Zealand and the South Pacific hotel rooms at the Independent

"Excellent location and facilities however my only recommendation would be based on the room charge l suggest the hotel adds pay TV eg foxtel or Netflix, You tube. Apart from free to air TV and movies offered not much else. Apart from that all good and would stay again."

"Great place to stay . Accessible to everything."

"Lovely friendly staff and the room was spacious, clean, comfortable and close to the beach. Live music in the hotel lounge was good. Pool and gym were great additions. The only downside was the pool closing at sunet and the gym/spa/tennis courts closing very early (4pm on weekends and 6pm weekdays), which was dissapointing."

"I booked at 730 am for tonight, by 1pm was in the ED ( not on hotel grounds) and will have a joint replaced tomorrow. A lovely reception lady took my call and with empathy will see if I can get a room credit or refund. Can't really ask for more-thankyou"

"Great stay thank you. "

"Daydream Island and Living Coeal Redort is indeed a dream come true. This was my second trip in two years.Just love the resort.Cant wait to visit again."

"Amazing place right by all the Cairns action! We had a nice room that was very spacious and great views!"

"Great resort with all the amenities and great staff, very clean "

"We came back for a second night after 5 days travelling North. We were disappointed with our first room in terms of bed and some maintenance issues. I let staff know and found our recent room outstanding. Our 3 rating with the first stay is now a 5. Thank you!"
