LIZARD ISLAND VOTED BEST FOR SERVICE
Thursday, 11 June 2009
Voyages Lizard Island has been voted the Top Hotel for Service in Australia, New Zealand and the South Pacific by Travel + Leisure readers.
US-based Travel + Leisure readers are among the most sophisticated, passionate and discerning travellers in the world. The World's Best Service Awards 2009 are based on the rating hotels received for their service in the World's Best Awards 2008 readers' survey. The results are featured in the June 2009 issue of the US edition of Travel + Leisure magazine and online at www.travelandleisure.com
Voyages' Executive General Manager Sales & Marketing Anna Guillan said: "Lizard Island epitomizes the best that Australia has to offer. It boasts 24 powdery-white beaches, sensational diving on the Great Barrier Reef and Black Marlin big game fishing adventures. Add to this the style of a world-class resort with a barefoot luxury feel and you have a truly unique place."
"This prestigious accolade is particularly special to Voyages because it is voted by readers of Travel + Leisure and is a wonderful testament to the service ethics of the 82 staff who live and work on Lizard Island and who are committed to delivering great experiences to our guests," said Guillan.
