Lyon Living and Eagle Four Partners have completed a remodel of the VEA Newport Beach Marriott Hotel & Spa. The renovation work was done by R.D. Olson Construction and included a fully redesigned lobby, entryway, enclosed atrium, pool and new event spaces. The hotel was originally built in 1973.
To create a grand entry, the exterior façade was raised from 25 to 40 feet and decorated with stone and metal details and an integrated water feature pouring from the porte cochère into a basin below. A reconfigured lobby provides direct sight lines to the ocean, with high-end, modern updates to the seating areas and finishes, including undulating walls that convey a hidden grotto.
The original atrium was transformed into a two-story building that houses a state-of-the-art gym and yoga studio; a 3.1k sf great room with a bar, outdoor lanai and fire pits; and a grand staircase leading down to an amenity deck. Here, a new straight deck-level pool is complemented by cabanas, a raised pool bar that cantilevers over the adjacent property and a large attention-grabbing LED screen over the seated bar area.
A new event lawn next to the ballroom and pre-event function area, and a current restaurant was converted into a 3k sf flex space and member’s bar that can be used for private events. The Pacific Landing building received a seismic retrofit that enables top-level rooms to convert into stay-together-suits for families or meeting spaces.
As a destination hotel near Newport Beach Country Club and Fashion Island, the project’s accelerated schedule was completed in about seven months. Located at 900 Newport Center Dr, Newport Beach Marriott Hotel & Spa is ideally located at the heart of high-end Newport Beach shopping and dining. R.D. Olson Construction partnered with property manager Lyon Living, architect Houston Tyner and design architect Gensler on the project.
