JW Marriott Clearwater Beach Resort Now Welcoming Guests

Today, the newest property of JW Marriott has been unveiled in Clearwater Beach, Florida, with the opening of JW Marriott Clearwater Beach Resort & Spa. The luxurious new beachside property is located along a secluded stretch of what has consistently been named “America’s Best Beach,” creating an oasis of coastal elegance and offering a serene destination to reflect and recharge.

Guests can soak in the sun from the resort’s secluded beach, gaze out at striking views of the Gulf of Mexico from the privacy of their balcony, or indulge in one of the resort’s numerous food and beverage destinations to find moments of serenity and heightened sensory experiences at every turn.

The 162 guestrooms and 36 spacious Residences were designed to reflect the brand’s central belief – that true luxury is having the time and space to focus on what matters most – oneself. The property caters to business, leisure and multi-generational travelers by offering a JW Market, full-service Spa by JW, 24-hour Fitness Center, JW Kids Club, and rooftop pool deck.

All guestrooms feature complimentary use of two beach chairs and access to daily fitness classes offered in the resort’s well-appointed fitness center or outside in nature. The 11th-floor rooftop pool deck offers striking views of the Gulf and Sand Key – the perfect vantage point to watch the boats sail by.

The newly built resort brings captivating and distinct building architecture to the destination, characterized by a coastal turquoise color. As guests transition from the Porte Cochere, where they are greeted with welcoming valet service, they enter a serene reception area that is defined by ‘Seagrass,’ a sculpture created by local artist Carrie Jadus. Around the corner, guests will discover ‘Wave’- a ceiling piece designed by artist Mark Aeling.

A team of acclaimed local and national architects and designers were selected by Vision Makers, the development arm of Dr. Kiran C. Patel, whose collaborative efforts resulted in a seamless transition from the beautiful outdoors to inspiring interiors. CallisonRTKL’s interior design includes a careful level of detail throughout that is complemented by soothing and enticing lighting by designer CM Kling. Floor-to-ceiling glass doors and windows frame an idyllic outdoor sitting area and beyond.

Uniquely chic comfort is achieved through unexpected touches of art deco-inspired glamour alongside rustic elegance and woven textures. Nature and sustainable practices underscore the resort’s design ethos, blending different textures like waves and woven patterns to perfectly encapsulate the essence of the destination. Each guestroom features calming neutral tones and sleek details designed to ease one’s mind and beckon towards the private balcony. Subtle sparkles of quartz crystal are hidden in plain sight, while driftwood tones and rippling motifs represent the coming together of sand and water.

Elevated food and beverage concepts subtly reinvent local flavors while welcoming global influence to the region, ushering in a new layer of sophistication to Clearwater Beach. The culinary creations are led by Executive Chef Inder Suryawanshi and Sous Chef Soumi Hazra, this year’s winner of Marriott International’s prestigious Master of the Craft culinary competition. Ingredients from the resort’s own JW Garden, as well as fresh, local produce, come together to create seasonal specials, such as Chef Suryawanshi’s award-winning wagyu with tomato gel and red chimichurri.
