Marriott Hotel Coming To Wildomar

WILDOMAR, CA — Another hurdle was cleared this week on a plan to construct the city of Wildomar's first hotel.

The developers for the hotel portion of the Baxter Village Project in the 22000 block of Wildomar Trail closed escrow Tuesday on the site and have secured the rights to construct a Marriott TownePlace Suites at the location, according to the city.

"This is very exciting news for Wildomar," said Mayor Joseph Morabito. "Not only did we get to announce Marriott yesterday, but it has already been announced that Sprouts will start construction soon in another part of the city. These are big names for Wildomar and we could not be happier. We anticipate this will set the pace for even more high-end names coming to town."

Irvine-based American Redevelopment Solutions will develop the five-story, 102-room hotel on 2.4 acres just west of Interstate 15. ARS purchased the property from Strata Equity Group, a family-owned real estate investment company based in San Diego. ARS works with Inland Empire city governments to identify key commercial real estate development opportunities for foreign investors as part of the federal government's EB-5 Immigrant Investor Program.

The extended-stay hotel will sit adjacent to an 84,000-square-foot Kaiser Permanente medical office building currently under construction.

The overall Baxter Village Project is an approved, 35-acre mixed-use development that includes the hotel, medical office and future development of 204 apartments and 67 single-family homes. See more here.

“We are excited to have secured the development rights to a Marriott Hotel in partnership with the city of Wildomar,” Ronald Darling, CEO, American Redevelopment Solutions, LLC said. “Having financed and developed several Marriott branded hotels throughout Southern California, we are keenly aware of how selective Marriott International Inc. is in the hotel site-selection process and their swift approval of the Wildomar Trail site is a testament to the City’s strong fundamentals and robust forward-looking planning and potential. We look forward to working closely with the city of Wildomar in the coming months to finalize the design details and bring this project to fruition as soon as possible.”

Wildomar is still a young city. It will celebrate 15 years of incorporation July 1.
