The Westin Savannah Harbor Golf Resort & Spa has been acquired by Hersha Hotels and Resorts, a portfolio company of KSL. The waterfront resort property changed hands from Brookfield Properties, which had recently invested in a significant renovation program at the hotel.
Brookfield completed an $8 million revamp of the resort in 2023, positioning the asset with updated facilities ahead of the sale. Specific details of the sale price and other transaction terms were not disclosed in the available information.
JLL represented Brookfield Properties in the transaction. The assignment was handled by the JLL Hotels & Hospitality Group, with a team led by Andrew Dickey, Maciej Polek and Derek Hayden. JLL noted that this marks the third time in a decade that the firm has been engaged to sell this particular asset, underscoring the property’s trading history within the institutional hospitality investment market.
The Westin Savannah Harbor Golf Resort & Spa comprises 403 guestrooms. The property also offers more than 51,800 square feet of flexible indoor and outdoor meeting and event space, catering to group, conference and leisure demand. On-site amenities include five food and beverage outlets that support both guests and group functions.
The resort’s amenity package is further differentiated by an 18-hole championship golf course designed by Robert Cupp and Sam Snead, which serves as a key draw for both leisure travelers and group events. The property also features a 17-treatment-room Heavenly Spa by Westin, a pool with river views, as well as tennis and pickleball facilities. An 18-hole disc golf course adds another recreational option for guests.
The hotel sits adjacent to the Savannah Convention Center, which recently completed a $276 million expansion in April 2025. The convention center expansion adds to the broader meetings and events ecosystem surrounding the resort, positioning the property to benefit from increased convention activity and group visitation tied to the upgraded facility.
With Hersha Hotels and Resorts stepping in as the new owner following Brookfield’s renovation investment, the transaction reflects continued institutional interest in full-service, amenity-rich hospitality assets connected to significant convention infrastructure. The combination of updated physical product, extensive meeting space and proximity to the expanded convention center frames the asset as a notable component of the local hospitality and meetings market.
