Ει βούλει καλώς ακούειν, μάθε καλώς λέγειν, μαθών δε καλώς λέγειν, πειρώ καλώς πράττειν, και ούτω καρπώση το καλώς ακούειν. (Επίκτητος)

(Αν θέλεις να σε επαινούν, μάθε πρώτα να λες καλά λόγια, και αφού μάθεις να λες καλά λόγια, να κάνεις καλές πράξεις, και τότε θα ακούς καλά λόγια για εσένα).

WATERFRONT WONDERLAND

 

The new $15-million renovation at The Westin Cape Coral Resort at Marina Village in Florida takes its inspiration from the concept of biophilia, a belief that people have an innate desire to connect with nature. The comprehensive, guestroom-focused transformation debuts almost a full year ahead of schedule—a silver lining resulting from the nationwide hotel closures that impacted 2020.

“When designing The Westin Cape Coral Resort at Marina Village, we wanted to bring the idea of outdoor living, inside,” said Sherif Ayad, president/CEO, ID & Design International. “The resort’s comprehensive new guestrooms and suites are completely inspired by the idea of biophilia, which is the belief that people have an innate desire and tendency to feel a connection to nature and other forms of life. With this in mind, the new guestroom interiors now feature an assortment of natural elements in their purest form to curate a contemporary residential aesthetic with a true sense of place, for guests to experience during their stays.”

Each guestroom includes a collection of locally sourced materials from Florida, including wood and glass elements, along with a soothing fluid pattern motif, a complement to the hotel’s stunning waterfront views. “Cape Coral is a city known as a ‘Waterfront Wonderland,’ so it was important when creating the design of this renovation that tranquil, waterlike concepts were incorporated,” said Ayad.

In addition to room enhancements, the hotel renovation increased guestroom inventory from 293 rooms to 308 rooms by converting 15 three-bedroom suites into two-bedroom suites and upgrading the remaining accommodations into new deluxe guestrooms.

“Our team worked tirelessly over the last year to debut a property which thoughtfully caters to Cape Coral’s rising number of local and leisure travelers while also supporting our robust bridal and group business,” added Michael Tighe, GM, The Westin Cape Coral Resort at Marina Village. “After a year that inspired us to embrace the great outdoors, our design concept, which reflects the natural beauty of Southwest Florida and celebrates Westin’s wellness-centric ethos, is a natural extension of the travel experience our guests have been favoring.”

The guestroom renovation and addition of 15 units will better cater to The Westin Cape Coral’s strong group business vertical. In 2018, the property debuted a 30,000-sq.-ft. meetings and events center, The Tarpon Point Ballroom, transforming The Westin Cape Coral into a comprehensive, one-stop destination for elevated meetings and event experiences.
