My wife and I just completed a FL getaway after an arduous moving process into our new home in March.
We reserved Marriott's Lakeshore Reserve in Orlando a few months ago for several nights. Although we stayed at Lakeshore Reserve over 10 years ago, we hadn't visited Orlando for about 6 years or so.
We didn't visit any of the many Orlando amusement parks. We did have an outstanding dinner at the Orlando Capital Grille.
Mostly traveled there to experience a warm and sunny getaway in FL, unwind a bit, & relax by the pool.
The complex at Lakeshore is still a great location. The J.W. Marriott lazy river is quite nice and the grounds around the pool offer plenty of space to lounge.
Although we were informed by the Lakeshore reception desk that the sharing arrangement between J.W. Marriott and MVC visitors will likely be ending in the near future.
I am posting today to express my concerns about the condition of the Townhome Villas at Lakeshore (Capo d'Orlando Bldg.)
We didn't stay there during our first visit when the resort was only a couple of years old. I think we stayed in Palermo 1 bedroom first visit.
Although extensive renovations are planned through end of 2022, there have been virtually no prior updates to these tired and worn Townhome villas.
Carpet/flooring, furnishings, paint all appeared below the overall quality we've come to expect from MVC resorts. The room was very dark. We also required maintenance for the malfunctioning shower door in master bathroom. The ceiling fan had a malfunctioning controller and only operated at a low speed. We had insects in the kitchen area until maintenance treated upon our request. Generally, very disappointed with the villa's appearance & condition. We would likely not stay in the Townhome villas again, even with renovations.
Would like to hear from recent MVC owners and visitors about their experiences as well as how owners feel about use of annual maintenance fees over a 12 year period! What has property management allocated to with those ever increasing annual payments by owners?!
