Re: Can't even give them one star (by Kathleen L.):
terrib - so you were at Land'Or in November 2012 or November 2013? Do you have pictures of these great rooms that they have remodeled? If so could you please post the pictures. I have seen the "new" room that was done by APEX last summer and it is a 1 bedroom, there are NO 2 or 3 bedrooms done. And the new pool bar? Exactly where is that located? They painted a few things and put up a door to close it off at night/when they aren't using it, but nothing really new. And the unit that they knocked out the doorway to has had nothing done to it. Guess we were at a different Land'Or than you went to.

Its extensive work so its going to take time and makes everyone anxious but eventually the entire resort will have a new look. The rooms that you call destroyed are probably the ones being converted to the 2/3 bedroom units with lockouts and they are quite lovely and will be wonderful for families and when friends come along. ' New' pool bar looks spectacular. Many single units have been redone and look really nice. My fave things are the french doors replacing the sliders and the new A/C units that work like individual central air.You can see some of the new looks on their website. I am not sure what you were looking at in July. We were there last November and there were lots of changes even then. Occupancy has been down for several years and not just at Land'or so its a good time to do this work and I predict more and more occupancy. I don' think they are turning down anyone due to lack of space. So many of we long timer owners have 'grown old' waiting for renovations so we were very pleasantly surprised. I was as frustrated as anyone but trying to be positive that better late than never.
The renovation can be noisy but who stays in their rooms much during work hours unless it rains? Anyone who 'lived' through the multi year construction of Atlantis would not complain about the noise.

When we were there in July APEX was tearing the rooms out for remodeling but as far as I can find out NOTHING has been done, if anything more rooms have been made destroyed. Not sure how many rooms are even available now, far from the original 72 by a long shot.karld27 wrote:When did you go to land'or? Are they still not renovating? I thought they were done.
