The company expanded the property&#8217;s culinary and wellness offerings, and enhanced outdoor attractions, children\u2019s activities and summer programming.<\/p>\n<p><em>\u201cWhen we and our partner acquired the property in 2012, the Ritz-Carlton, Lake Tahoe was the premier highlands resort west of the Rockies,\u201d <\/em>William McMorrow, Kennedy Wilson\u2019s chairman &amp; CEO, told<em> Commercial Property Executive. \u201cSituated mid-mountain on the Northstar California ski area, it was well-located and we saw significant potential for operational upgrades and capital improvements to take it to the next level.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Lake Tahoe is one of the country\u2019s most popular tourist destinations, which has undoubtedly benefitted from the tech boom in San Francisco and the upswing in that economy.<\/p>\n<p>One of the big changes the company made to the resort was installing a new multi-level dining and bar facility called Lake Club, which transformed the Ritz-Carlton, Lake Tahoe from a primarily winter resort into a year-round destination.<\/p>\n<p><em>\u201cOur experience with the Ritz-Carlton, Lake Tahoe is a great example of our opportunistic and value add investment strategies\u2014buying where we see strength in the local market at a discount to replacement cost and with the potential to grow revenues through operational and capital improvements,\u201d<\/em> McMorrow said.<em> \u201cWe also provided guests indoor and outdoor lakefront amenities and new recreational opportunities through the development of Lake Club, which has been very well received.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Kennedy Wilson also sold out all 23 condo units at The Ritz-Carlton Residences in 2016 for a total gross sales price of approximately $50 million.&nbsp;<em>\u201cWe also saw opportunity in the sales of the 23 penthouse units at the Ritz-Carlton Residences as the Bay Area economy and housing market were on the upswing,\u201d <\/em>McMorrow said.<em> \u201cImportantly, we had the opportunity to acquire the property at a significant discount to replacement cost.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<p>The company plans to recycle the proceeds from the sale of the Ritz-Carlton, Lake Tahoe into new strategic investment opportunities.<\/p>\n<h2>Deals across the pond<\/h2>\n<p>The global real estate company has been busy. Just last month, Kennedy Wilson sold a portfolio of hotels located across the U.K. for $54 million. Between the two deals, the company made a profit of $73 million over the lifespan of both investments.&nbsp;In that deal, Kennedy Wilson sold the remainder of a loan portfolio backed by six hotels totaling 864 keys, obtaining a 45 percent return on cost over the life of its investment.<\/p>\n<p>In November, Kennedy Wilson signed <a href=\"https:\/\/www.commercialsearch.com\/news\/wework-asos-sign-full-building-leases-in-london-submarkets\/\">two of the largest European deals in the company\u2019s history<\/a> with two major tenants\u2014WeWork and ASOS\u2014in its London-based properties.<\/p>\n<p><em>Image courtesy of&nbsp;Kennedy Wilson<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Kennedy Wilson sold its interest in the 170-key hotel, which underwent capital and operational improvements including expanded culinary and wellness offerings and enhanced outdoor attractions.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":451,"featured_media":1004292800,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[21743,21808,21751,21742,36080,15],"tags":[33237,33329,33238],"class_list":["post-1004292797","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-deals","category-featured","category-hotel","category-latest","category-sacramento","category-west","tag-kennedy-wilson","tag-ritz-carlton","tag-william-mcmorrow"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v23.4 (Yoast SEO v24.6) -
