This includes midweek housekeeping for week-long stays, thorough cleaning between guests, maintaining outdoor cabin areas, managing bedding and cleaning supplies, assisting in the kitchen in the evenings, and handling all in-house laundry.

As a Housekeeping Intern, you’ll gain hands-on experience managing people, schedules, inventory, and high standards of cleanliness and service. This is an operational internship, meaning you’ll both perform departmental duties and take on leadership responsibilities. You’ll work alongside our housekeeping managers to run the department while also completing daily cleaning and organizational tasks. We believe a strong understanding of housekeeping is essential for any future hospitality leader.

• Assigning and managing housekeeping board tasks
• Cleaning and inspecting cabins
• Coordinating cabin rental items (fridges, fans, etc.)
• Training and supervising staff
• Scheduling and staff management
• Inventory tracking and ordering supplies
• Using our Property Management System (RDP) to generate and interpret reports

What You’ll Gain

This internship focuses on running, organizing, and supervising the housekeeping department. It’s ideal for college students pursuing Hospitality & Tourism Management with a goal to manage a resort or hotel in the future. You’ll develop skills in:

• Staff supervision and leadership
• Efficient use of a Property Management System
• Guest relations and service excellence

As with all positions at Fair Hills, you’ll have opportunities to cross-train and assist in other departments, gaining a broader understanding of resort operations.
