8.8/10 Excellent! (18 reviews)
We stayed in a 3 bedroom villa. First thing u need to know is the 3rd bedroom downstairs has a single bed. This threw things out for us as our youngest didn't want to sleep downstairs on her own, so our giant teenager had to have a single bed while the younger child had a double bed all to themselves. Knowing the layout would have changed my decision. The downstairs of the villa was freezing, the air con wasn't working properly. How a property doesn't have proper heating in the NZ winter is beyond me. We asked for it to be fixed, they brought over some small heaters. That warmed it up, housekeeping them took them away the following day. Housekeeping was so hit and miss. Some days they replaced a couple of towels, others all, other just took out the rubbish etc. Kitchen not properly stocked made it hard to cook. Villa 53 car park is not in front of the unit. Such a bizarre set up.

I absolutely loved my stay at LYLO! Everything was amazing, from the atmosphere to the facilities. The place was clean, comfortable, and well organised. The staff were lovely and welcoming, and everything made my stay so enjoyable. I honestly loved everything about LYLO and would happily stay here again. Highly recommended! ❤️

"Great position and easy walk into town, Room was clean and we had a great view of the lake, parking is definitely an issue and with very limited parking at the accommodation you don't have a lot of options so it's pot luck at finding somewhere to park, book parking at accommodation early."
