Orlando Business Journal has reported that Orlando-based company Darton US Holdings Inc. has filed with the county to build a seven-story, 526-room luxury resort, as well as a conference center, parking garage, and 12 villas. If approved, the resort will be situated on 30 acres of land located close to Disney World on the opposite side of Interstate 4.

More details of this proposed project include approximately 12,000 square feet of office space, a nearly 2,800-square-foot retail space, and two restaurants. The hotel itself would include “a family pool and adult pool, a steakhouse restaurant, a spa, a fitness room, a children’s center, a greenhouse and more.”

While the resort’s cost was not included in this proposal, industry data estimates that the total project could cost approximately $1 billion, with around 40% of that amount dedicated to the hotel alone. The project’s timeline also was not given, but it was noted that this resort would be built in one phase.
