Herbert Pohlmann Jr. is the owner of FMBH LLC, the company that owns the Wyndham Garden Hotel on Fort Myers Beach. The hotel, which was once a popular destination for tourists, was severely damaged by Hurricane Ian in 2022. Pohlmann has been ordered by the town to demolish the hotel, but he has not yet made any plans to rebuild.
The hotel, which was built in 1969, was last sold for $12 million in 2001. Despite its history and value, "the property has been left in disrepair since the hurricane.".. with debris still scattered across the site.
More details: See hereOne of the last of the 1960's era old Florida beachfront hotels on Fort Myers Beach is being taken down more than two years after Hurricane Ian effectively destroyed an icon of the southern side of town. The Wyndham Garden Hotel, formerly a Holiday Inn where a shuffleboard and tennis court once stood, where Pincher's once operated a restaurant, where Jet Ski rentals could be found and whose beach property is among the more expansive on the entire island, is being cleared with bulldozers. For what? Nobody knows yet.
