Work is underway on the Westin Cocoa Beach Resort, Spa and Conference Center, a 502-key oceanfront development helmed by Driftwood Capital. The $420 million project will be located on a 15-acre site at 1300 North Atlantic Avenue. Once completed, Driftwood Hospitality Management will manage the resort.
The Westin Cocoa Beach Resort & Spa will feature:

- A spa
- Surfing wave pool
- Swimming pools
- Tennis and pickleball courts
- Fitness center with cardio and weights
- Multiple retail options

The property is expected to generate about $3 million in tourist taxes in its first year of operation and $4.5 million a year by its fifth year of operation while creating approximately 1,800 direct and indirect jobs in its first year.
The resort will also offer 72,000 square feet of open-air venues for meetings and events, complemented by 51,500 square feet of indoor space designed for gatherings and conferences.
