Every memorable stay starts with someone who makes you feel welcome the moment you arrive. At Renaissance Orlando Resort & Spa, that someone is Tim Swan.
As our Director of Sales and Marketing, Tim brings decades of experience and a journey that started at the front desk of a small hotel in Lake Geneva, Wisconsin. “I had no idea what the hotel business was about,” Tim says. “But it all started back in Lake Geneva… and quickly became something more.”
Today, Tim leads with a spirit of discovery, connection, and care one that defines the experience guests can expect at our resort.
A Brand Built on Discovery
“The Renaissance brand is very unique in the Marriott family, and it’s all about the exploration and discovery,” Tim shares.
That philosophy runs throughout our resort, where guests are encouraged to embrace spontaneity and connect with the world around them. Every space is designed to feel casual, welcoming, and full of possibility whether you’re planning your day over coffee or heading out to explore Orlando.
Disney Perks Meet Resort Ease
As Tim notes, “We are the first Marriott brand on Hotel Plaza Boulevard… walking distance from all that is Disney Springs.” That location means you’re never far from the magic. As an Official Walt Disney World® Hotel, Renaissance Orlando Resort & Spa offers exclusive benefits like:
- Early Theme Park Entry
- Complimentary Shuttle Service to Disney Parks, every hour, every day
- Walkable access to 180+ restaurants, shops, and entertainment at Disney Springs
A Place That Feels Like Home
“Visitors should not only see a very welcoming and casual environment,” Tim says, “but also one that encourages them to be a spontaneous explorer and to go out and see the local communities.”
It’s that balance of comfort and curiosity that shapes every experience at Renaissance Orlando Resort & Spa from check-in to your final farewell.
