The multi-part series follows Pennington as he visits the Travel + Leisure Co. global headquarters in Orlando and multiple Club Wyndham resorts to explore the scale and complexity of maintaining the properties. From large-scale renovation projects to preventative maintenance, engineering, housekeeping, landscaping and owner programming, the series highlights the many teams and operational details that shape the resort experience.
“Maintenance fees are one of the most important — and often misunderstood — aspects of vacation club ownership,” said Kevin Maciulewicz, SVP of Resort Operations at Travel + Leisure Co. “We wanted to create educational content that felt open, engaging and easy to understand, and Ty was the perfect partner to help bring that story to life.”
The series includes footage from a major renovation project at Club Wyndham Branson at The Meadows, where Pennington follows a full-unit transformation from demolition through final reveal. An additional episode filmed at Club Wyndham Bonnet Creek focuses on the daily operational work required to manage one of the company’s largest resorts, including preventative maintenance programs, inventory management, landscaping, pool operations and guest programming.
“I’ve spent my career helping people understand what goes into creating and maintaining great spaces,” said Pennington. “What surprised me about this project was the sheer scale of what happens behind the scenes at these resorts every single day. There are hundreds of people involved in keeping these properties running smoothly, and I think owners are really going to appreciate getting an inside look at that work.”
The series reflects Travel + Leisure Co.’s continued focus on giving owners greater visibility into the expertise, investment and operational planning behind its vacation clubs and resort experiences. Episodes will be distributed through owner-facing communication channels, including newsletters, owner websites and company-owned social media platforms.
“Our owners experience the end result every time they vacation with us,” added Maciulewicz. “From consistently high guest satisfaction scores to the care and quality owners expect at our resorts, this series highlights the people, planning and long-term investment that make those experiences possible year after year.”
Episodes, which will be released weekly every Wednesday beginning on May 27, can be found on Club Wyndham’s website.
