Lake Okanagan Resort

A typical day at work required kitchen clean up, washing dishes, food prep, table clearing, restocking items, delivering items to different areas of the resort, etc.
I learnt various skills in the kitchen area, food and beverage area, pool and marina area, and how to drive a golf cart safely.
Management (at the time) was unfortunately hard to work with, most of staff was pleasant and easy to work with comfortably though.

This place really needs to think about what kind of staff they need. People persons, (ones that know how to actually communicate with human beings,) and ones with industry experience. They ignore key players and are far from experienced in management, guests, hotel accomodations, events, sales... the list just goes on. Hire people that will make a difference! Don't you want to be something??? What a waste of land and property.

Overall it’s a really run down and old place , mouse traps in every room , the mattress are really old and probably have bed bugs . Stock is never enough when cleaning rooms, the management is really unprofessional, non of them have there stuff together , you only get paid 2 days in a month , you’ll get harassed everyday by an old grumpy couple when just passing in a golf cart , and the most bad thing about this place is that it’s just a bunch of goofs running the house keeping management. Don’t recommend it

Always having issues with all different levels of management and having issues with lack of supplies but over all people were good to work for and with. They have good benefits and being off before 4 everyday have my time to have a normal life and cook supper everyday. Full time hours always steady work in the summers, fall and winter is lay off season and also slows down majorly.

Attn Housekeeping staff: you will not receive tips … management will “strip your room” for you taking the dirty laundry and any tips or thank you notes from the guest.. you will be overworked and under paid. There is no sense of teamwork and everyone is for themselves. 

Right on Lake Okanagan. A great location, fun employees, great culture. I made a lot of friends there and very much enjoyed my time.

Wages are very low for what is expected of you, and the resort doesn't have the money put into it that it should. 

Management were great and understood that Life happens sometimes.

Lake Okanagan Resort was a fun place to work with absolutelt gorgeous views that just never get old. You are relied upon to be independent and self motivated, and provide great service. You are also asked to do many tasks out of your typical job description which you should embrace as it expands your knowledge and experience.
