The project has already delivered completely refurbished suites and significantly updated public areas, with the final phase – featuring a redesigned lobby and breakfast area—set for completion soon. The last stage will introduce all-new furnishings, lighting, flooring, and artwork, creating a more contemporary and welcoming ambiance for guests.
“With the average Orlando visitor often staying for a week or more, a refreshed extended-stay hotel is an ideal accommodation for visitors seeking longer-term alternatives,” said Duane Winjum, Area General Manager. “This renovation touched on virtually every aspect of the hotel, from guest rooms to hallways to the pool and fitness area, bringing it to ‘like-new’ status. These upgrades provide more space, amenities, and comfort than a traditional hotel room, allowing guests to spread out and relax after a fun day at the parks.”
Each suite received a complete transformation, including new carpeting, tiles, walls, curtains, valances, and artwork. Kitchens were fully remodeled with new cabinets, countertops, sinks, faucets, stovetops, and dining furniture, while living areas now feature modern furnishings, new televisions, and sofa bed sleepers. Bathrooms were upgraded with new vanities, wallpaper, and fixtures, and bedrooms now include additional outlets, charging ports, new televisions, and furniture for improved functionality and comfort.
The renovation also extended to amenity areas, introducing a newly equipped 24/7 fitness center, a refreshed outdoor pool, and a remodeled guest laundry room with all-new washers and dryers. Guests continue to enjoy complimentary Wi-Fi and daily breakfast, staples of the Homewood Suites brand.
Conveniently located at 11428 Marbella Palm Court, the pet-friendly property is just a 10-minute drive from Walt Disney World and SeaWorld, and directly across from the Orlando Vineland Premium Outlets.
With this transformation, Homewood Suites by Hilton Lake Buena Vista – Orlando reaffirms its position as a premier extended-stay destination in one of the world’s most popular leisure markets, offering enhanced comfort and modern style tailored to long-stay visitors and families alike.
