MARCO ISLAND, Fla.,
May 16, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- The
iconic JW Marriott Marco Island Beach
Resort has completed its comprehensive $320 million transformation project, ushering in
a new era of luxury in southwest Florida and beyond. Guests who visit this
stunning resort situated on three miles of pristine sands and
sparkling Gulf waters will enjoy the new Lanai Tower with more than
100,000 square feet of technologically integrated meeting and event
space, exciting culinary concepts, 12,000 sq. ft entertainment
center, reimagined historic Lanai Suites and the debut of the
"Paradise by Sirene" experience, a curated escape
exclusively for adults.
The completion of the all-new Lanai Tower was the final stage in
a magnificent three-year, multi-phase reimagining that touched
every aspect of the resort, from an enhanced grand entrance,
complete renovations of existing rooms and suites, expansion of
pool decks and the addition of five new restaurants – Ario,
Maia and Kane Tiki Bar & Grill.
The new Lanai Tower itself boasts Tesoro: a signature
Mediterranean-inspired restaurant designed exclusively for adults;
and 10K Alley: a state-of-the-art
combination gaming emporium and gastropub. Guests can also immerse
themselves in the recently unveiled 94-room Paradise by Sirene
experience on floors 6-9, thoughtfully tailored to surprise and
delight during each moment of their stay.
Paradise by Sirene uncovers Paradise Redefined at the JW
Marriott Marco Island, expertly interpreting the personal
predilections of guests ages 21 and over through a selection of
exclusive amenities. Here, Sirene's treasured guests enjoy
exclusive access to the rooftop pool and sun deck, as well as the
full use of a personal beach butler who will cater to their every
whim as they relax by the water. Sirene's personal vacation planner
is always on hand to arrange exclusive access to the resort's
scenic golf courses, premium spa treatments, thrilling local
excursions and much more. What's more, these "Friends of Sirene"
will receive innovative wearable technology bracelets to unlock not
only their guest rooms and suites, but also identify their status
to staff – revealing Paradise by Sirene's hidden luxuries
exclusively for their use.
The adult-exclusive Paradise by Sirene experience is a
compelling addition to a resort that is already renowned as one of
Florida's most luxurious
family-friendly escapes. The property's ideal location beside the
Gulf of Mexico, where soft, sandy
beaches and calm waters abound, makes it a perfect coastal retreat
for families of all ages. For those wishing to skip the sand, the
multiple resort pools serve as a refreshing oasis, including a main
resort pool and a Tiki Kids pool complete with waterslide and
waterfall. Unique to the resort, Tiki Tribe Discovery Day Camp is
the best place for children ages 5-12 to have fun while learning
about the natural ecosystem of the Ten Thousand Islands. The
Sailing & Shelling tour provides a chance to spot American
White Pelicans, bald eagles, dolphins, manatees, and so much more.
Older children and adults can enjoy the fast-paced 1 ½ hour guided
wave runner adventure tour through the mangrove islands. What's
more, the resort has recently debuted a complimentary kids and
teens yoga program (ages 4 and up), providing a restful and
engaging activity for their younger guests.
The debut of Tesoro and 10K Alley
propels the resort's dining offerings into the next echelon of
culinary experiences. Tesoro, named after the Italian word for
"treasure," is an atmospheric restaurant that caters exclusively to
adults and will showcase inspired Mediterranean cuisine served
tapas style, highlighting the flavors of France, Italy, Spain
and Greece. Tesoro dazzles guests
with its chic decor, panoramic views from the fifth floor of the
Lanai Tower, and multi-faceted menu celebrating the bountiful
offerings from the Gulf, such as whole grilled local catches and a
fresh raw bar, as well as the on-property Savita Garden's fresh herbs, edible flowers and
seasonal produce. At Tesoro's sleek indoor outdoor bar, visitors
can look forward to cocktails utilizing rare Mediterranean
liqueurs, Sangrias served with a modern twist, an array of
Spritzers created with house-made sodas, as well as an impressive
wine selection from Portugal,
Spain, Italy, Greece, Lebanon and Israel.
For a more laid-back luxury experience, 10K Alley delivers the look and feel of a sleek
and modern distillery. Whether enjoying flavorful gastropub fare
seated at the circular bar, communal high-tops or in the main
dining area, visitors will delight in the restaurant's elevated
cuisine, decadent milkshakes and other mouthwatering treats. The
drinks menu is equally impressive, showcasing more than 50 Florida
craft beers and barrel-aged bourbons including rare and limited
production spirits such as Old Forester Birthday, Kentucky Owl and
Pappy Van Winkle 23. Some of the bourbons were created exclusively
for 10K Alley in a partnership
between the JW Marriott Marco Island, Jack Daniels and Woodford
Reserve. In addition to its handcrafted food and drinks,
10K Alley boasts a mix of classic and
contemporary games that invite guests and groups to indulge in
friendly competition. Although located in the Lanai Tower, families
with children are welcomed until 10
PM.
In addition to the on-property amenities, the resort offers
guests access to two private golf courses – the renovated Rookery
and Hammock Bay, a world‐class, Audubon gold signature, par-72
course. The Rookery, recently redesigned by acclaimed golf course
designers Peter Jacobsen and
Jim Hardy, now features wall‐to‐wall
Platinum Paspalum turf, enhancing visual appeal and overall
playability; newly designed bunker complexes; and an upgraded
clubhouse with an "Old Florida" interior theme. The resort's
Hammock Bay course was also developed by Jacobsen and Hardy, and
the contours, shape and orientation of the course greens are
designed with the approach shot in mind and present golfers with a
range of shot options. Hammock Bay is recognized as a "Gold
Certified Signature Sanctuary" by Audubon International, one of
only 45 designated in the world.
The overall project also included the debut of a fresh,
innovative SPA by JW concept. The SPA by JW is an upscale sanctuary
created to demystify and reimagine the spa experience. Guests are
invited to indulge in full-service and express treatments based on
four core benefit states: calm, indulge, renew and invigorate.
Additional spa programming includes daily beach yoga, Fitness on
Demand and unique health and wellness classes such as floating pool
yoga, meditation and sleep technique courses, as well as curated
wellness retreats taking place through the year.
The resort's state-of-the-art meeting and event space, located
on floors 1-3 of the Lanai Tower, features two ballrooms with
spacious pre-function areas, two outdoor terraces and numerous
breakout rooms totaling 100,000 square feet. The crown jewel of the
newly opened tower is its Calusa Grand Ballroom, which offers
meetings, conventions and special events up to 30,000 square feet
of versatile, high-tech space accompanied by 24-foot ceilings and a
striking terrace overlooking the Gulf of
Mexico. Full-length windows bathe the pre-function area in
natural light, providing attendees with an inspired setting for
success. The tower also boasts a 17,000 square-foot Banyan
Ballroom, which can easily expand to 34,000 square feet of
contiguous event space when combined with the Banyan Foyer.
