Located less than an hour from New York City, a new property from Pendry Hotels & Resorts, Pendry Natirar, will open its doors on 400 acres of rolling hills, manicured lawns, and conserved woodlands in New Jersey’s Somerset County this summer.
Originally built in 1912, a 68-room Tudor-style mansion—previously owned by the King of Morocco—is being restored by CosciaMoos Architecture and DesignAgency. Pendry Natirar will also include 24 adjoining contemporary residences.
Onsite restaurant Ninety Acres will feature farm-to-fork culinary offerings with seasonal produce sourced from the estate’s sustainable farm produce. Meanwhile, the lounge, set in the mansion’s grand room, will be a place to gather for afternoon tea and evening drinks.
Other amenities will include Spa Pendry, a fitness center, swimming pool, and tennis courts.
The reimagined Natirar Club
The resort will also be home to the Natirar Club, a reimagination of the original members club founded by Natirar owner Bob Wojtowicz in 2007.
The transformed Natirar Club is a modern space tailored to an active countryside lifestyle. Members can partake in programming including outdoor activities, live music, Natirar Farm offerings, wellness programs, and preferred access to Ninety Acres.
“After close to 20 years of my wife Kim and I working through the vision of Natirar, it is incredible to see it come to life with the Natirar Club as the first phase of what will be a key part of the future Pendry Natirar,” says Wojtowicz.
“Natirar is an incredibly special place, and we are grateful for the opportunity to be the stewards of the Natirar Club, and the soon to open Pendry Natirar,” adds Michael Fuerstman, cofounder of Pendry Hotels & Resorts. “Bob and Kim Wojtowicz have had an incredible vision for Natirar, and we look forward to introducing our signature Pendry style and service culture to this incredible countryside destination.”
