Owned by Asante Asset Management LLC, the hotel plans to undergo a multi-million renovation scheduled to begin August 2021.
“The Nautilus Inn will benefit from our in-depth, firsthand knowledge of the Florida marketplace, as it joins our existing portfolio of six branded and independent Sunshine State hotels,” said Robert Cole, president & chief executive officer, HVMG. “Our growing footprint, as well as our familiarity with the local and state markets, allows us to share best practices and create economies of scale that will help the hotel increase profitability and grow market share.
