Welcome to Eastport, where we’re excited to introduce you to Hotel Eastport. Located along Central Lake with amazing water views, this all-new four story promises to be another great addition to The Villages.

This mid-century modern hotel is in its early stages of construction. Watch as Lauren Knowlton, shares more of what is to come for you to enjoy.

We know that when you’re a Villager, one thing’s for certain – you can plan of having visitors, whether it’s our children, grandchildren, friends, or family. Hotel Eastport will be a complement to all the wonderful lifestyle on the horizon and coming to Eastport and bring your guests a great place to stay.

The hotel looks good, but that voice!

Come on man……….

Put it on mute and it shattered my screen.

Hopefully they can maintain a nice hotel unlike the other hotel on the water.

:ohdear:

What's up with the exterior architecture ? It's no Waterfront Inn. Looks like a Velveeta cheese box.

Probably more a showcase like the Brownwood Hotel and Wolfgang Puck which are super nice.

In The Villages video they called it mid-century modern (i.e. - 1950's) and that it was similar to the vibe of future buildings in the Eastport area.

I grew up in the 50's. The predominant new build architecture was projects, barracks, and trailer parks. Reminds me of road trips to Myrtle Beach with my parents.

Based on the new Villages Schools and that in many ways, Villages employees are designing and developing this area for their families, I have no doubt the end result will be first in class and beautiful.

But, RustyP does have a point ;-)

Exactly where is Eastport located? How far south of 44?

about 5 miles south of 44 (1.2mi south of Sawgrass Grove)
