A developer has filed documents with the city of Mesa seeking a height exception for a 110,000-square-foot hotel at Cannon Beach, the surf park and entertainment complex at the southeast corner of Power and Warner roads.
The proposed Cannon Beach Hotel would be a four-star, five-story, 148-room property, according to documents filed with Mesa's Planning and Development Department. The developer needs a special use permit from the city of Mesa to allow for a maximum building height of up to 75 feet.
The hotel is intended to be the signature hospitality component of the Cannon Beach development, per the filed documents. Amenities would include a signature restaurant, meeting and event spaces, an outdoor pool, and an experiential lobby area. The property would join the Hilton Tapestry Collection.
Cannon Beach spans 60 acres and is built around a surf lagoon at the southeast corner of Power and Warner roads. The site includes retail, restaurants, and family entertainment concepts alongside the water park. The next phases of restaurants are expected to open there later this year.
The project has been years in the making. According to the Daily Independent, Cannon Beach took two and a half years in design and development before breaking ground, with the surf lagoon anchored by Revel Surf combining two wave technologies on a 37-acre footprint.
The Phoenix Business Journal first reported the filing; AZBEX and the Mesa Tribune have also covered the hotel proposal.
Who needs to approve the height exception?
The developer must obtain a special use permit from the city of Mesa to build to a maximum height of 75 feet. No vote date has been disclosed in the filed documents.
The Mesa Planning and Development Department is reviewing the application. No hearing date has been announced publicly.
