I recently stayed at the Holiday Inn Club Vacations at Orange Lake Resort. While the resort is large and well-maintained, I found the furniture to be somewhat outdated. My initial one-room reservation in the main building left much to be desired. The hallway leading to the room was poorly lit, with chipped paint and dated, dirty carpet. Despite being promised a beautiful lake view, the outside of the window was so dirty that visibility was a challenge. A thorough power wash or window cleaning would greatly improve the overall appearance.
The room's layout was awkward, with the outdated bedroom right at the entrance, followed by a bathroom and, finally, a living room with a small kitchenette. This arrangement felt reminiscent of a motel room from the 80s. I'm relieved I inspected the room alone as I was hesitant to show it to my wife, who I had taken there for a birthday getaway. Swiftly, I returned to the front desk and requested an upgrade to a two-bedroom unit.
The second room, located in a different high-rise building, was an improvement in terms of appearance but still retained an outdated feel. Despite this, I must highlight that the resort's grounds are beautifully maintained, the staff is friendly, and its location is convenient. With some much-needed updates to the rooms, this resort could truly shine.
