Title

Meritage Commons Hotel Expansion

Description

The proposed project involves the expansion of the existing Meritage Resort and Spa onto the 9.3 acre vacant parcel located immediately north of the existing hotel across Bordeaux Way. The expansion project, identified as Meritage Commons, will provide 145 new hotel rooms, and will introduce and expand upon ancillary hotel serving uses to provide a greater variety of guest serving amenities. Meritage Commons will include an outdoor event area, an exhibition kitchen, and a small guest serving market. The existing Trinitas Tasting Room at Meritage will be relocated to The Commons along with additional space for tasting or break out space for groups. Street improvements, sidewalks, crosswalks, and medians are also proposed as a part of The Commons. On the existing Meritage site, a new approximately 10,000 sf exhibition hall with additional support uses and an outdoor pre-function area is proposed to be located in a portion of an existing parking lot on the western side of the site. Additional project components include changes to vehicular circulation at the existing porte-cochere and to the southern parking area, and enhancements to the existing pool area. The project components described above have been separated into two distinct phases, with construction of The Commons as Phase One, and the new exhibition hall and circulation upgrades at the existing hotel as Phase Two.
