Capistrano Coast House
Hospitality | 30 Keys
Marketing description
Atlas Hospitality Group is pleased to present the exclusive opportunity to acquire Capistrano Coast House, a 30-room luxury boutique hotel located directly across from Capistrano Beach in South Orange County, California. Offered as a fee simple interest, the Property represents a rare opportunity to acquire a fully renovated coastal lodging asset in one of Southern California's most supply-constrained hospitality markets.
Situated on approximately 0.96 acres along Pacific Coast Highway, the Property enjoys unobstructed ocean views and an irreplaceable location with high barriers to entry. The hotel encompasses approximately 10,581 square feet across two stories and underwent a comprehensive renovation in 2024, delivering a turnkey luxury boutique hotel with minimal near-term capital requirements.
Capistrano Coast House is positioned between Dana Point and San Clemente, benefiting from strong leisure demand, affluent demographics, and the ongoing $600 million Dana Point Harbor revitalization. Ownership is also pursuing affiliation with Marriott's Design Hotels collection, which would provide access to Marriott's global reservation platform while preserving the hotel's independent character.
The combination of an irreplaceable coastal location, complete renovation, and opportunities to expand food and beverage offerings creates a compelling investment opportunity within one of California's most desirable lodging markets.
Investment highlights
- Directly across from Capistrano Beach on Pacific Coast Highway, the Property offers unobstructed ocean views from every guestroom and occupies irreplaceable coastal real estate with high barriers to entry. Few comparable luxury boutique hotels exist in the immediate market, creating a rare and highly differentiated lodging offering.
- The hotel was completely renovated down to the studs in 2024, including new electrical, plumbing, HVAC, roofs, windows, fire sprinklers, custom Saltillo and Italian parquet flooring, and hand-carved wood finishes. The property also presents a potential opportunity to obtain an ABC liquor license and introduce a bar or lounge concept to further enhance revenue.
- Offered directly by the lender as a real estate owned (REO) asset following foreclosure by a motivated institutional seller, clean title, and no competing ownership chain. A rare chance to acquire a fully renovated beachfront hotel at a basis well below intrinsic value.
- Pricing sits well below the cost to rebuild a comparable beachfront hotel today, where coastal entitlements and new construction are effectively unattainable. The REO disposition creates an entry point at a fraction of replacement cost with in-place cash flow.
- The lender is offering carried financing to qualified buyers, providing flexible terms and a streamlined path to acquisition. This option reduces upfront capital requirements, simplifies the closing process, and enhances overall return on investment.
- The Property is positioned to benefit from the $600 million Dana Point Harbor Revitalization, which is adding new dining, retail, and waterfront amenities. Dana Point's growing prominence as a coastal destination, including hosting Olympic surfing events for the 2028 Los Angeles Olympics, is expected to further increase tourism and lodging demand.
