Brisbane Holiday Village achieves the first AAA Tourism 5-Star cabin accommodation Rating in Queensland!

AAA Tourism undertook its annual Star Rating inspection of Brisbane Holiday Village recently (9 April 2010) and awarded the Village a 5-Star rating for its new Vogue Cabins, under the Australian Tourist/Caravan Park STAR Rating Scheme.

With this recognition, Brisbane Holiday Village is now one of only two Tourist/Holiday Parks in Australia to have achieved the highest rating for cabin accommodation.

The Village’s additional three holiday cabin styles, branded the Cosmo Cabin, Alfresco Cabin and Metro Cabin, along with the two-bedroom Semi Permanent Cabins also rated high in the Scheme. The Cosmo Cabin scored an impressive 4.5 Star, where the Alfresco, Metro and Semi Permanent Cabins all scored a 4 Star rating. 

An overall 4.5 Star rating was awarded to the property, confirming Brisbane Holiday Village’s well-appointed accommodation throughout and its exceptional standard of facilities and guest services.

Ken Illich, Development Manager of Brisbane Holiday Village, said, “Year in and year out we work hard and smart to keep ahead of our competitors and with this recognition we are proving to be doing just that. The accommodation and facilities we have on offer at Brisbane Holiday Village are more of what you would expect from a resort than a tourist park.”

In addition to the accommodation and property ratings, Brisbane Holiday Village received an Eco-Friendly Star, rewarding its commitment and care for the environment. Brisbane Holiday Village adopts state-of-the-art water and energy saving systems and is proud to be considered an Eco-Friendly Australian caravan park.

Brisbane Holiday Village wins a 2009/10 Queensland Tourism Award

Brisbane Holiday Village is the proud winner of the 2009/10 Queensland Tourism Award for best Caravan Park in the "Tourist and Caravan Parks" Category. The Management of Brisbane Holiday Village was presented the prestigeous award at the Awards ceremony held on Friday 13 November 2009. Despite it being "black Friday", Brisbane Holiday Village scooped gold!

Ken Illich, Development Manager of Brisbane Holiday Village, said, "We are so excited about our win in the 2009/10 Queensland Tourism Awards. It is indicative of the great support we have from our valued customers and staff, and the many improvements we have carried out recently."

“We have been working hard and smart to keep ahead of our competitors. This year we designed and installed some luxury cabins [called Vogue Cabins, which will soon be operational], with the appointments you would expect in an upmarket apartment. We have also been working on some new facilities, upgrades to existing accommodation and facilities and adopting state-of-the-art water and energy saving systems. These are just some of the improvements we have undertaken recently.”

Ken said, “The caravan park industry is evolving and our aim is to be ahead of the game. Guests are expecting more upmarket accommodation, extensive facilities and environmentally friendly business practices, and we are providing just that.”

“There seems to be a shift towards cabin accommodation throughout Australia, perhaps because caravan parks offer such extensive facilities and good value for money. Plus, there’s room for the kids to run around and the guests can save money by preparing their own meals in the self-contained holiday cabins. Caravanning is also increasingly popular,” Ken said.
