SCOTTSDALE,
AZ, Sept. 15, 2021—Officials of The Cornerstone
Collective today announced the multi-million-dollar renovation of the 158-room
Courtyard by Marriott Salt River in Arizona.
With
a targeted completion date of Fall 2021, the renovation includes many custom
elements and enhances brand standards by focusing on the hotel’s location on
the Salt River Pima-Maricopa Indian Community.
Owned
by Ba’ag ceksan (Eagle Mark), LLC, the Courtyard is the first
Marriott hotel built on tribal land in the United States.
“While respecting the
original design intent, our vision is to further elevate the property with
design elements that honor the Salt River Pima-Maricopa Indian
Community,” said Suzie Hall, founder and CEO, The
Cornerstone Collective.

“Sleek, shimmering materials will represent water, while textured, woven elements will represent the tribes’ history of basket-weaving.
"Like the two tribes coming together to
create one community, two color palettes –warm earth and cool water –will be
used in harmony to create one cohesive design.”
The renovation includes all guest rooms and public spaces, including lobby,
bistro, breakfast area, bar, ballrooms and meeting space and fitness center.
