Resort Improvements – September 2016

September 20, 2016 by Plantation Resort 2 Comments

Our Mission: To Deliver Gold Crown Vacation Experiences

Republished from our September 2016 Owner Newsletter

Kick your feet up in your newly renovated “Home Away From Home.” We’ve updated the arcade at the Activity Center, given the shuttles a fresh new look, not to mention all the updates to more units! Over 1/3 of the condos have undergone a big facelift in the past 2 years with several updates throughout the rest and more updates to come! So read all about it here and then make sure to come for a visit to see and enjoy these improvements in person!

New Arcade

The arcade has new games, such as Area Site 4 shooting game, Treasure Chest claw game, a multicade and more! We have 2 The Fast and the Furious racing games so you can race each other. We also offer up the classics such as Ping Pong, Pool and Foosball which are now free.  Go ahead, challenge one and all to a tournament!

Shuttles

Make a splash on your way to the beach. We’ve covered our fleet of 4 shuttles in images to put you in the vacation mood as you make your way to Surfside Pier. A beach scene, palm leaves, a hibiscus flower, and a sea turtle (as a nod to the sea turtle initiative, about which you can read here)—Take your pick and ride in style.

Bollard Lights

We’re lining Double Eagle Drive with brilliant new bollard lights to guide you safely to your condo. These sturdy lights can take quite the beating and are energy efficient making them very cost effective plus they look sleek and modern. So come to Plantation Resort and let these bollard lights illuminate your vacation.

Improvements Inside the Units

Chances are good that you will be staying in a newly renovated condo the next time you vacation at Plantation Resort. Over 1/3 of the units have been finished, and we hope to have the rest of them finished within the next few years.

Below we mention some of the most significant changes you can expect to see in these condos.

Living Room

In the living room you’ll notice beautiful new artwork with a more contemporary look and feel. Large or small, these beautiful works will make you feel right at home during your vacation.

As you take your first steps into your vacation condo, you’re greeted by new carpet and tile. As we install this flooring, we’re including more updated soundproofing underneath. It is our priority to make sure your vacation remains as relaxing as possible.

Another of our soundproofing efforts is fitting many of the doors, especially the lockout doors, with soundproof materials to create an oasis of peace and serenity.

In order to manage costs and continue to update your Resort, we are renewing the case goods, such as dressers, head boards, night stands and coffee tables throughout the condos. We replace worn parts and paint them to look good as new at a fraction of the cost.

When it comes to your living room furniture, your comfort is our goal as we’ve added over 150 new sofas, loveseats and lounge chairs in 2015 with more slated for this year. As you continue around the living room, you may notice changes to the lighting. Updating the lamps throughout the units is a long-term goal that will be rewarding in creating a beautiful atmosphere. These lamps and other lighting upgrades, such as the fixtures in the hallways, will set the perfect mood for your vacation.

Updated unit improvements at Plantation Resort in Myrtle Beach

One way we’re improving the privacy of your condo is through window sheers. You asked for them in comment cards and this is just one of the many ways we show we’re listening. We’ve already installed window sheers on many of the condos and our goal is to finish all of the 1st floor condos by next summer. Soon, every building will be fitted with beautiful window sheers that grant privacy while letting in the natural light.

Kitchen

Slide your hand along the kitchen counter and feel the cool, smooth texture of the new granite. Countertops have been replaced in over 50% of the kitchens and our goal is to have 200 of the 300 condos finished by next year.

As you continue to explore the kitchen, notice the refacing of the cabinets. New cabinet doors are a great way to update the look of the kitchens. We think you’ll agree that the effort has paid off as they’re sleek and beautiful.

The lamps and hallways aren’t the only place you’ll find new and improved lighting. Kitchens will receive beautiful track lighting and pendant fixtures so you’ll have ample light to prepare delicious meals.

New backsplashes in the kitchens will make you feel right at home. We think you’ll love the new look.

BathroomUpdated unit improvements at Plantation Resort in Myrtle Beach

Along with our initiative to help you feel more secure and at ease in your condo, we’ve installed grab bars in each bathroom.

We’re adding granite and custom mirror surrounds to the vanities which look more refined and finished than ever before.

 

You may not see them, but you can enjoy the comfort that comes with staying up-to-date with water heaters. We’re expecting to replace more than 150 water heaters in the upcoming year. We’re installing new water heaters that are 60% more energy efficient than older models, saving you energy and money!

Bedroom

Of course the most important part of your relaxing condo is the bedroom and the highlight of the bedroom is the bed, which is why we’re planning to install 188 deluxe Plantation Resort custom-made mattress sets in the next year. This includes new mattresses, box springs, pillows and luxurious new bedding to complete your perfect vacation.

Building Roofs

Our Goal

Our ultimate goal is to create a place that you’ll always be happy to call home. As with most improvement efforts, many are on-going or may take years to complete. We promise to keep you updated as we continue improving and renovating your Resort up to and beyond Gold Crown standards. Please come and enjoy these new improvements in person. We hope to see you soon at Plantation Resort! To make your reservation call 1-800-845-5039.

      Most of the updates so far have been made in Presidential Villas. If you look at the graphic in the middle of the article you can see how many units have been updated so far in which buildings for both Presidential Drive (Presidential Villas) and along Double Eagle Drive.
