An Evolution of Tradition Rooted in the Legacy of our Founder

In 1952, Kemmons Wilson had a vision to provide hassle-free hospitality that exceeded customers’ expectations and called it Holiday Inn. The vision grew to become the roadside home-away-from home for millions of families. And today, it is the most well-known hotel brand in the world.

Thirty years later, Kemmons took traditional vacationing to a higher level by inviting families to take ownership of their vacation, creating Orange Lake Resort in Orlando, Florida. And today, we are proud to offer more than 2,750 timeshare villas and units that host over 140,000 owners from around the world.

“It was my father’s vision to provide families better ways to vacation.” — Spence Wilson, Sr.

Kemmons’ son Spence and his family continue his father’s legacy by creating new and distinctive vacation adventures. The common heritage between Orange Lake Resorts and Holiday Inn has brought two great brands back together as one ultimate vacation experience...Holiday Inn Club Vacations.

“My Granddad had a curiosity about everything and he never stopped searching for a better way. He felt like he was an every day, common man and that he should create new and better ways for people just like him to spend time together.” — Spence Wilson, Jr.
