Holiday Inn Club Vacations Incorporated, an international vacation ownership company, today marked a major milestone with a ribbon-cutting ceremony celebrating the completion of the first phase of The Residences at Orange Lake Resort. The expansion includes three completed six-bedroom luxury homes and one fully furnished model home, now ready to welcome multi-generational travelers seeking a high-end, private-vacation experience.
The ceremony comes just shy of two years after the company broke ground on the project on August 8, 2023. The event included remarks from company and industry leaders, including John Staten, President and Chief Executive Officer of Holiday Inn Club Vacations; Jorge Reyes, Regional Vice President of Operations for Holiday Inn Club Vacations; Jason Gamel, President and CEO of the American Resort Development Association (ARDA); Mike Campbell, HICV Vice President of Sales; and Robert Agrusa, President and CEO of the Central Florida Hotel and Lodging Association (CFHLA).
Built with family connection, comfort, and luxury in mind, each Residence spans more than 5,575 square feet and features:
- Six bedrooms and six bathrooms with dual master suites
- Large entertainment spaces with 85″ TVs and surround sound
- Private screened-in pool with sun shelf, hot tub, and fire pit area
- Game and fitness rooms
- Chef’s kitchen with island seating and dining room to seat 20
- Outdoor kitchen and covered patio
- Smart home technology and personal golf cart use
The Residences are now available for preview through the model home, with the first three homes ready for stays later this summer. Priority booking will be offered to Holiday Inn Club members.
