Orlando, Florida (PRWEB) June 17, 2016 -- The Holiday Inn Club Vacations® brand, developed and exclusively operated by Orange Lake Holdings through a marketing alliance with InterContinental Hotels Group (IHG), announced today the addition of the 230-villa Galveston Seaside Resort to the Holiday Inn Club Vacations brand portfolio. The Holiday Inn Club Vacations brand now includes 22 resorts with more than 6,900 villas in 12 states. A new sales center is also under construction at the resort, which will provide additional Holiday Inn Club® sales opportunities in the Texas market.
The resort joins the Holiday Inn Club Vacations brand as part of the 2015 purchase of Silverleaf Resorts by Orange Lake Holdings. This included a portfolio of 13 properties, enabling the company to introduce the brand into many new markets as part of its western expansion goals.
“This is another great accomplishment by our team. We now have two fantastic resort properties located in Galveston, Texas, that our Holiday Inn Club members and owners will soon be able to visit with their families,” said Don Harrill, CEO of Orange Lake Holdings. “By the end of the year, we will add another resort in Holly Lake Ranch, which will bring our total to seven properties in Texas.”
“Our growth in Texas is incredible. These new resorts will provide our Holiday Inn Club members with new experiences for travel around the state. The Holiday Inn Club Vacations Galveston Seaside Resort property adds another beach destination option and includes a new beachfront building that we expect to open this fall for our guests,” said Tom Nelson, president and COO of Orange Lake Holdings. “By the end of the year, we will have branded 13 new resorts and added seven new sales centers to our brand. And we’re not done growing.”
