KSL Capital Partners has acquired The Westin Hilton Head Island Resort & Spa through its Tactical Opportunities Fund. Terms of the transaction were not disclosed.
Located on a stretch of South Carolina’s Atlantic coastline, the property features 420 recently refreshed guestrooms and suites, each with beach-inspired décor, private balconies and sweeping ocean views. Guests have direct access to the beach, three outdoor pools, the award-winning Heavenly Spa by Westin, and a range of farm-and-sea-to-table dining experiences across several restaurants.
The resort also offers nearly 40,000 square feet of flexible indoor and outdoor event space, making it suitable for gatherings of up to 1,000 guests. Since 2012, The Westin Hilton Head has benefited from over $47 million in capital enhancements, cementing its status as the island’s premier luxury beachfront resort and a leading destination for wellness-focused travelers.
“Well-maintained and strategically located in one of the Southeast’s most sought-after leisure destinations, The Westin Hilton Head is exactly the kind of high-quality, experience-driven destination we look to support at KSL,” said Dan Rohan, partner and head of Tactical Opportunities at KSL. “It’s one of the grand dames of the region, and we’re focused on building on the resort’s legacy and finding new ways to further elevate this beloved coastal destination.”
KSL’s Tactical Opportunities platform is designed to provide strategic partnership capital to differentiated travel and leisure businesses outside the firm’s traditional equity and credit mandates.
