Two site visits to the U.S. to understand the project with rigorous standards

As the fifth major collaboration between WorldWay and the multi-billion dollar U.S. fund PeachTree Group, the "Marriott Lake Oconee Resort" continues WorldWay's consistent, rigorous selection standards and long-term perspective. To gain an in-depth understanding of the project, Dr. Winner Xing, Chairman of WorldWay, led a senior executive team on two separate site visits to the U.S.

 

At the project site, Dr. Winner Xing asked the development team a question: "On such a superior lakeshore resource, what kind of project are you planning to build?"

 

Subsequently, project developer co-founder Lauren Sprayberry provided the answer.

More than just a hotel, it is a lakeside destination

What will be built here is the "Marriott Lake Oconee Resort" project.

 

The project belongs to the Marriott Autograph Collection. Its overall positioning is not a traditional hotel, but a high-end lakeside destination that integrates vacation, living, social, leisure, and asset management functions.

 

The project is located in the core area of Lake Oconee, with a layout centered around the lakeshore landscape.

 

The overall plan includes:

✓ Marriott brand high-end resort hotel

✓ SPA center

✓ Multi-functional meeting space and ballroom

✓ Rooftop bar and scenic restaurant

✓ Lake-view pool and public leisure areas

✓ 49 high-end residences (villas and apartments)

✓ Large yacht marina and waterfront amenities

 

Integration of vacation, lifestyle, and operational value

Subsequently, project developer co-founder Josh Sprayberry further introduced the future operational scenarios of the project.

 

The main building of the project is planned to have four floors with a total of 141 guest rooms. In the future, guests will not only be able to arrive at the hotel in the conventional way but also drive a yacht directly to the marina, where they can step ashore and enter dining, leisure, and social spaces. The project will also be equipped with yacht rental services to make the lakeside vacation experience even richer.

 

At the same time, the project is planned to create a unique lakeside banquet space in the Lake Oconee area. The banquet hall, which can accommodate about 200 people, can host diverse scenarios such as wedding celebrations, family gatherings, and business events, and will be combined with courtyard space to form a complete event facility.

 

In addition to the hotel format, the project will simultaneously launch 49 branded residences, covering villa and apartment products, all of which will be included in the Marriott branded residential management system.

 

Owners can choose two-bedroom or three-bedroom layouts, enjoy six weeks of free stay per year, and the rest of the time will be uniformly operated and managed by Marriott and professional third-party institutions, balancing the enjoyment of lakeside living with long-term operational value.

A gathering that is a breakthrough choice for family global planning

As more and more families begin to pay attention to residency planning, educational layout, and global asset allocation, market focus is changing. While people are concerned about the project itself, they are even more concerned about the development capabilities, operational logic, and long-term delivery capabilities behind the project.

 

This is why the "Marriott Lake Oconee Resort" stands out—it not only has uncopyable lakeside scenery and the backing of the Marriott brand, but also possesses a mature operational system that can stand the test of time.

 

The national roadshow is still ongoing! Want to get first-hand information? Want to seize the current policy window? Welcome to join us on-site, discuss in-depth face-to-face with experts, and customize a new path for your family's global planning. We look forward to seeing you there.
