New York-based Extell Development Co. is partnering with the Hilton hotel chain to bring a major resort and residential development to Deer Valley.
Expected to open in 2028, the ski-in, ski-out Waldorf Astoria Deer Valley Resort and Residences will be located within the Deer Valley East Village and adjacent to the resort’s newly established longest ski run, the Green Monster.
Extell Development is a national real estate developer of residential, commercial and hospitality properties.
The resort will feature 132 luxury hotel rooms and 105 one-to-six-bedroom branded residences available for purchase ranging from 1,099 to 5,155 square feet across two towers. Architectural design of the property is led by Kohn Pedersen Fox and the interior design of the project is led by hospitality designer AvroKO.
“Deer Valley East Village is the culmination of world-class luxury partners committed to delivering exceptional ski experiences. The addition of a Waldorf Astoria resort and residences builds upon that vision and marries the best of the real estate and hospitality worlds,” said Gary Barnett, founder and chairman of Extell Development. “With globally recognized brands such as Waldorf Astoria and Four Seasons joining an extraordinary collection of hospitality, retail, recreation, and residential offerings, the Village is poised to become the crown jewel of North American
ski resorts.”
“The signing of Waldorf Astoria Deer Valley Resort and Residences marks a major milestone in Hilton’s growing luxury portfolio across the Americas,” said Kara Randall, vice president for Hilton’s North America luxury and mixed-use development. “This Waldorf Astoria resort will further enhance Hilton’s diverse offerings in Utah, where more than 70 properties are already welcoming travelers.”
On-site amenities for hotel guests and residents will include a 15,000-square-foot spa with treatment rooms, thermal features and a snow room; fitness centers; ski valet and concierge services; a golf simulator; a kid’s room; a residents’ pool deck along the Green Monster; an indoor lap pool; and an outdoor pool and hot tub cantilevered over the ski run. The property will also feature numerous restaurants, bars and lounges, including Waldorf Astoria’s signature Peacock Alley; 11,300 square feet of meeting and event space, including a 5,200-square-foot ballroom; resident lounges; and a demonstration kitchen.
Construction on the site began in May.
