Residence Inn by Marriott Announced for Summervilles Nexton Community
SUMMERVILLE, SC January 27, 2016 Southeastern Development Associates today announced the purchase of land in Nexton, a master planned community being developed by WestRock Land and Development, for the construction of a Residence Inn by Marriott. This move brings the second Marriott property to Summerville in less than two years. Construction on the hotel is expected to begin in June 2016, with a target opening in the summer of 2017.
The 96 room, all-suite hotel, developed by Augusta-based Southeastern Development Associates is designed with the extended stay traveler in mind. The property features an inviting outdoor environment with a pool, fire pit and sport court. Indoors guests can enjoy the custom designed lobby, meeting space, and fully equipped fitness center. Each suite is fully equipped with a kitchen with full sized refrigerator, stove, and microwave. Nextons GigiFi gigabit internet service is available in every room.
Nextons bustling commercial center is currently home to the South Carolina Research Authority, WestRock Land & Development, Palmetto Primary Care, The Parks Apartments, Carolina Ale House, and others. The new Residence Inn will be located immediately adjacent to the planned Nexton Square, a center of shopping and dining.
Strategically located just northwest of historic Charleston at the junction of I-26 and Highway 17A in Summerville, Nexton lies within the Lowcountrys corridor of growth. Just a short distance from Charleston International Airport and Charleston Harbor, access to Nexton will be further enhanced when a second interchange on I-26 opens in 2018.
