Lake Nona Aloft to Open for Holidays

Aloft Hotels announced the 205-room hotel, which also includes 15 suites, will open Dec. 14 southeast Orlando’s Lake Nona community, across Lake Nona Town Center.

It is less than two miles from the USTA National Campus on land owned by Lake Nona developer Tavistock Development Co., making it the closest hotel to the world-class tennis facility. The Orlando Business Journal reports that the developer, Tavistock Development, says, “Once open, the new Aloft Lake Nona will cater to the rapidly growing sports and performance district attracting visitors and sports enthusiasts worldwide.”

First announced in 2021, the new Marriott-branded property will include Tempo + Grace as well as the Re:Mix Lounge & WXYZ Bar and Re:fuel by Aloft, a grab-and-go pantry.

The hotel also will feature 17,032 square feet of event space.
