A proposed 18-unit boutique hotel with a restaurant received unanimous final design approval Jan. 22 by the Naples Design Review Board.

The three-story, 30,000-square-foot Aquarius Hotel is proposed to be built at 590 Ninth St. N. at the longtime location of the one-story retail strip that is home to Liki Tiki BBQ restaurant, Pastrami Dan’s sandwich shop and Tropical Smoothie Cafe.

The mixed-used redevelopment project will include 6,486 square feet of commercial use — including the 4,646-square-foot Aqua restaurant with outdoor dining — on the ground floor facing U.S. 41 and Sixth Avenue North. The luxury hotel will include nine units on the second floor and nine on the third floor with a swimming pool and an amenity deck that includes an outdoor bar on the second floor. At-grade parking will be provided under the building.
