Transaction Overview

Opportunistic Acquisition of Long-Term Relevant Real Estate®

  • Investment: Sunstone has acquired the fee-simple interest in the recently opened Montage Healdsburg, a 130-room luxury resort in Northern California's world-renowned wine region for $265 million.

Property: The expansive resort sits across 117 secluded acres and is adjacent to 40 premium home sites being developed as part of Montage Residences Healdsburg(1). The destination resort has abundant amenities, including a vineyard, multiple restaurants, a full-service spa, numerous recreational activities and substantial purpose-built meeting space.

Off-MarketTransaction: The off-market acquisition is the result of a long-standing relationship with the seller, an affiliate of

Ohana Real Estate Investors ("Ohana" or the "Seller") who will continue to own and be responsible for the development and sales of Montage Residences Healdsburg.

  • Compelling Valuation: Sunstone is acquiring Montage Healdsburg at a discount to what it would cost to develop today. The resort is expected to generate a 6% to 7% net operating income yield upon stabilization of the hotel and inclusive of the expected earnings contribution from the residential rental program.
  • Funding: The purchase price was funded with $199 million of existing cash and the direct issuance of $66 million of attractively structured Series G preferred equity to the Seller. The dividend on the Series G preferred equity will initially be based on the hotel's net operating income and is tied to the completion of Montage Residences Healdsburg. The Series G preferred equity is callable at liquidation value, at Sunstone's election, at any time.

1. Montage Residences Healdsburg are not included as part of the resort acquisition but are eligible for participation in the resort's residential rental program.
