Nestled into the lush wilderness of North Tahoe, EKN’s 15-acre Waldorf Astoria Lake Tahoe is bringing beauty and sophistication to the iconic mountain town. Designed to accentuate Lake Tahoe’s unparalleled natural locale and modernize traditional mountain architecture in the region, our Alpine Resort will welcome visitors and locals alike to experience all Lake Tahoe has to offer.

Guided by the steep terrain, the resort will emulate the intimacy of destination Alpine Village whilst taking advantage of Lake Tahoe’s spellbinding views. Resort guestrooms, suites, and branded residences are planned to feature incredible views of the lake, meant to be experienced fully by the guest thanks to expansive floor-to-ceiling glazing. A primary goal of the hotel’s public spaces is to allow a natural visual connection and seamless flow between spaces, connecting people with nature year-round and allowing guests to engage and explore the resort through a series of indoor/outdoor experiences. Elevated amenity decks with pools will emulate the natural, layered, terrain and set the resort into the hillside from one building to the next.

Dynamic programming ensures that the destination feels intimate, whilst providing guests with ample activities and opportunities to explore the site.

The entire resort has been crafted as an integrated village with great exposure for shops and restaurants to the North Lake arterial and glimpses into the active promenade with café seating, shops, and entertainment. The project pays homage to the rich history of the Nevada state-line with an upscale and intimate casino featuring gaming and top name entertainment as a contemporary gateway expression to a re-imagined district. Additional amenities consist of an extensive hotel spa and wellness amenity and medi-spa center featuring an outdoor terrace and direct connection to a resort pool.
