Lakeside Villas at Crittenden Estate is celebrating after taking out the Best Self-Contained Accommodation Award at the RACV Tourism Awards. “We are so excited and also just a little bit proud,” said owner/manager Linda Crittenden, pictured. “We know our villas present a great product for our visitors and we always try to improve as best as we can, but to have it now acknowledged by the judging panel of the tourism awards is another feather in our cap altogether.”

The awards are based 20 per cent on a site visit and 80 per cent on a written submission, which Linda said was basically a business plan on all the things Lakeside Villas has done and improved in the past 12 months. “So, for example, we have become a lot more environmentally sustainable, we continue to connect strongly with the local tourism industry and local suppliers and we continue to put our guests front and foremost of everything we do. We also always hope they drive away with the best experience in their minds, and that they come back sometime in the future.”

Lakeside Villas at Crittenden Estate now goes into the Australian Tourism Awards, which will be announced in March.
