The Marina Hotel renovation, which was led by New York-based Dash Design, covered the resort’s guestrooms, restaurants and the Marina Hotel pool deck.

The property invested more than $35,000 in each of the Marina Hotel’s 297 guestrooms to give what it called a “contemporary residential feel.”

“Our new look is reflective of the overall experience that Renaissance guests are seeking,” said Janien Huistra, Director of Sales and Marketing.
