Scope Of Work
We were honored to create the first new hotel rooms on the island in more than four decades at a location that vacationers have sought out for more than a century as the premier Sanibel Island hotel and resort destination. Our vision for the resort was to create a seamless fit with the gorgeous beachfront setting. Conveying a feeling of relaxation and connecting with loved ones was paramount at this place known for family vacations, weddings, and romantic getaways.
With this project, we replaced a 12-unit concrete block building built in 1961 with the brand new Matthews Lodge, 12 luxurious suites highlighted by spectacular gulf views. Benchmark also had an opportunity to implement their specialized geothermal cooling system, an effective, green, environmentally-sensitive way to cool the environment.
