Marriott Tribute Portfolio Hotel with Rooftop Deck Coming to Downtown Wellen

Share

A boutique Marriott Tribute Portfolio hotel is planned along Grand Lake with a rooftop deck and views at the heart of Downtown Wellen.

Downtown Wellen is set to welcome a new centerpiece that will elevate the lakefront experience. Plans are in motion for a Marriott Tribute Portfolio boutique hotel with 148 rooms and a rooftop deck overlooking Grand Lake.

I reviewed the planning application filed with the City of North Port. The record describes a five story hotel with on site parking and supporting infrastructure. This filing confirms the scope and location of the project and signals forward progress.
