Housekeeping @ King Real Estate Grand Beach Inn

Your American Summer Starts on the Sand

Imagine finishing your shift, grabbing your towel, and being on a seven-mile stretch of golden Atlantic beach in under five minutes. That’s daily life at King Real Estate Grand Beach Inn in Old Orchard Beach, Maine – one of New England’s most iconic seaside resort towns and a classic Work & Travel USA destination.

We’re looking for energetic, reliable university students to join our Housekeeping team from summer into fall. If you take pride in doing a job well, enjoy working with an international crew, and want to earn solid money while living the American beach-town experience, this is your placement.

What You’ll Be Doing

• Cleaning and preparing guest rooms to the Inn’s high standards – making beds, changing linens, and refreshing towels
• Vacuuming, dusting, and sanitizing bathrooms and living areas
• Restocking amenities, coffee supplies, and guest essentials
• Managing laundry: washing, drying, folding, and organizing linens
• Reporting maintenance issues and lost-and-found items to supervisors
• Keeping hallways, common areas, and housekeeping carts neat and well-stocked
• Greeting guests with a friendly smile and helping them feel at home

Pay & Benefits

• $16.50 per hour – a strong wage for the hospitality sector
• Tips included – guests regularly leave room tips, boosting your weekly earnings
• 35 hours per week guaranteed, with a stable, predictable schedule
• Extended season: summer through fall – work longer and save more
• Walking distance to the beach, shops, and nightlife
• Friendly, supportive management experienced with international students
• Opportunity to pick up additional hours during peak weeks

What We’re Looking For

• University students aged 18–25 on a valid J-1 Work & Travel USA visa
• Conversational English – enough to understand instructions and greet guests warmly
• Strong attention to detail and pride in a job well done
• Physical stamina: you’ll be on your feet, bending, and lifting light loads
• Reliability and punctuality – our team counts on each other
• A positive, team-first attitude and willingness to learn
• Availability including weekends and holidays (the busiest and best-paying times!)
