The $170 million project's construction is due to commence in 2024 and is expected to be completed by mid 2026.

“We are thrilled to work with Sunnyland Investment Group to bring Marriott Executive Apartments to Australia," said Richard Crawford, vice president for Hotel Development, Australia, New Zealand and Pacific for Marriott International.

The apartments will be located on St Kilda Road, Melbourne, just three kilometres from Melbourne CBD. 

Marriott Executive Apartments are designed to meet the long-term needs of corporate travellers. 

The studios, 1-bedroom and dual key apartments offer separate sleeping, relaxing and working areas, as well as gourmet kitchens.
