English Marketing Tourism & Travel - hotel/resort accommodation
I have a few more puzzling accommodation options. Could you provide a clue about "lodge room"?

...
LAND SIDE ROOM
1 BEDROOM LOFT
LAGOON VIEW
LODGE SUITE
LUXURY GARDENVIEW ROOM
DELUXE LODGE ROOM
SUPERIOR LODGE ROOM
LUXURY KING TERRACE
1 BEDROOM LANAI
2 BEDROOM LANAI
LUXURY OCEANVIEW ROOM
LUXURY 1 DOUBLE BED
1 BEDROOM LOG CABIN
...

"Land side" and "lanai" are also difficult to visualize.
Thank you!

Thank you for your readings and explanations. With this little context, the help of proz is invaluable!

According to this site, a lanai is a veranda or roofed patio - http://www.hyperdictionary.com/dictionary/lanai
Non-ProZ.com Dec 7, 2004:
Lanai seems to be a veranda or a terrace. Or is it a porch?

Cabin style detached room

Basically I agree with Sue. What I envision is a cottage type detached room with or without kitchen facility, independent from the main hotel building, offered to guests as option. It is more likely on mountain site or near ocean with the view of horizon and beautiful scenic settings. I saw quite a few of these in Rocky Mountain resort area.
Land side ---- sounds like it depends on the geographic location. What I mean by this is where the hotel is located in the hotel setting. By the ocean or by the lake, or by the mountain slope, etc.
As for "lanai" .... I used to have a condo which has "lanai", a small terrace-type partially roofed, partially open garden and balcony. For this reason I understand "lanai" is same as "terrace", "balcony", and/or "porch". In hotel setting though, it is very likely fenced for privacy.
Overall I am under the impression what you are dealing is not just a hotel, but resort hotel.
These are my good guesses. Good luck!

A notion just hit me. I understand \"lanai\" is on the ground level whereas porch and/or terrace etc., could be on above ground floor of multiple room buildings.

agree RHELLER : also my understanding - like a bungalow

room with a "hunting lodge" theme

This would be my guess, based on the context with "log cabin"

Sort of a rustic room, with wood panels, maybe a moose head on the wall (ugh!) that some people enjoy.

A lanai is a porch or veranda according to Merriam Webster, but no mention of a terrace. It is a roofed outside area attached to a building, so porch OR veranda does it for me.

land side = no ocean view lanai = porch/balcony

Assume we're talking about Hawaii

I believe, but am not sure, that \"lodge room\" refers to a large, open room.

agree Charlie Bavington : or possibly no view of the lagoon that also gets a mention.

basic hotel room

I've checked a few hotel websites (http://www.blackwaterfalls.com/tours/lodgeroom.htm ,
http://www.blanketbay.com/lodge/lodgerooms.htm )
and the impression that I got was that lodge rooms are very normal, relatively small hotel rooms.

This site http://www.asiahotels.com/hotelinfo/lake_moeraki_wilderness_... defines lodge rooms as follows:
"Lodge Rooms are standard hotel style rooms and have reasonably basic décor. Suitable for two people, with a queen bed or twin share."
Peer comment(s):

agree Tony M : Well, I wouldn't at first have thought of this, but it does make sense: think Travelodge, think basic motel chain accommodation...

rooms in a lodge

Are these all at the same place? If yes, sounds like the lodge is a separate building - especially since there are 3 qualities, lodge suite/deluxe/superior.

Lodges are often hotels in natural settings eg national parks, and built to blend in and take advantage of the surroundings.

Nice example here: http://www.blanketbay.com/

agree Nesrin : Yes, I think that's it..

I believe in a hotel context, the following definition of \"lodge\" should be used:

5 a : the meeting place of a branch of an organization and especially a fraternal organization.

Lodge rooms are not necessarily always used for formal meetings.

However one of large masonic sites is LodgeRoom.com
