Vacation ownership brand brings its laid-back lifestyle to Sunset Walk entertainment district near Florida theme parks

ORLANDO, Fla.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Travel + Leisure Co. (NYSE:TNL), the world's leading leisure travel company, today announced an expansion of the popular Margaritaville Vacation Club^® brand, unveiling plans for a proposed new timeshare resort near Walt Disney World^® in Kissimmee, Fla. Expected to welcome guests in 2027, this future development is part of the company’s multi-brand strategy focused on creating new vacation ownership opportunities across its portfolio of brands.

Located adjacent to Margaritaville Resort Orlando at the energetic Sunset Walk entertainment district, the new resort is expected to feature 151 beautifully appointed, condo-style suites designed for ultimate relaxation and is expected to become the newest slice of paradise in the Margaritaville Vacation Club portfolio. For nearly a decade, Margaritaville Vacation Club has offered owners a lifetime of vacations infused with the signature Margaritaville^® blend of carefree spirit, adventure and ultimate escapism.

“We're excited to stake a Margaritaville Vacation Club umbrella in the proverbial sand here in Central Florida. This proposed development highlights the unique power and appeal of the Margaritaville brand within our larger multi-brand strategy at Travel + Leisure Co.,” said Jeff Myers, chief sales and marketing officer and head of the Margaritaville Vacation Club division at Travel + Leisure Co. “With this new destination, we will offer Margaritaville Vacation Club owners even more opportunities to embrace the laid-back vacation lifestyle they love.”

The future resort is expected to offer owners and guests a selection of studio, one-, two, and three-bedroom layouts perfect for any size crew visiting Central Florida’s tourist hotspot. Travelers will be able to spread out with plenty of space in separate bedrooms and dedicated living and dining areas. Every suite will include a washer/dryer (say goodbye to packing damp swimsuits!) and kitchenettes or fully equipped kitchens, complete with a Frozen Concoction Maker^®, giving thirsty travelers convenient access to their favorite frosty drinks. For an elevated stay, one-, two-, three-, and four-bedroom Margaritaville Vacation Club Presidential Reserve suites are also anticipated at this resort.

"Central Florida is the epicenter of theme park magic and sun-drenched relaxation – the perfect place to make unforgettable vacation memories," continued Myers. "Whether you're dreaming of roller coaster adventures or simply lounging poolside with a margarita in hand, we're confident this new resort and world-class destination will become another beloved home-away-from-home for our owners."

Upon completion of the proposed resort expected in 2027, resort amenities are set to include a sparkling outdoor pool and bar, a convenient cafe and coffee shop for on-the-go fuel, a modern fitness center, game room, and a calendar of engaging activities for families looking to make core vacation memories. A dedicated sales gallery, expected to open in 2027 to welcome prospective owners, is also included in the resort’s construction plans.

From its first locations in the U.S. Virgin Islands and Puerto Rico, the vacation club has expanded to exciting destinations across the United States including Nashville, Las Vegas, and Atlanta.
