CBRE Hotels announced that it has arranged the sale of renowned waterfront resort Hyatt Regency Pier Sixty-Six (Pier 66) and Pier 66 world-class marina, located at 2301 SE 17th Street in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, to Tavistock Development Company, for an undisclosed price.
CBRE Hotels’ Christian Charre, Paul Weimer, and Natalie Castillo represented the seller. The buyer, an Orlando-based real estate development firm owned by Joe Lewis’ Tavistock Group, acquired the prestigious property and attendant redevelopment rights for the 22.7 acre site, which features 384 guestrooms and suites in a 17-story tower and two lanai-style buildings.
“With its strong marina operation and high-performing waterfront resort in one of South Florida’s top markets, Pier 66 is a complex asset,” said Mr. Charre, senior vice president, CBRE Hotels. “After listing the property in February of this year, we were able to attract buyers from around the globe. We are now very pleased to have facilitated the sale of this outstanding investment opportunity, which already comes with city-approved plans to further develop the site.”
Approved plans call for the addition of 58 residential units spread across two 11-story towers and more than 30,000 square feet of retail and office development. Well-known for its spectacular views, Pier 66 offers five on-site restaurants, three tropical pools with cascading waterfalls, 30,000 square feet of event space, a two-story yacht brokerage building, and one of the largest marinas in Florida. The landmark hotel has been in operation since the 1960s.
