ROCKPOINT AND NEWBOND Holdings acquired the 141-key Hotel Maren Fort Lauderdale, Curio Collection by Hilton, in Fort Lauderdale, Florida. Financial terms were not disclosed.<\/p>\n
The 12-story oceanfront property was built in 2021 on a 0.8-acre parcel just south of Las Olas Boulevard in the Fort Lauderdale Beach submarket, the companies said in a statement<\/a>. The hotel has ocean or Intracoastal Waterway views from every room.<\/p>\n Hotel amenities include an oceanfront pool and sun deck, retail, meeting and event spaces and a fitness studio, the statement said. The owners plan to enhance the hotel’s food and beverage offerings and public areas.<\/p>\n The acquisition builds on the firms’ relationship, which includes the September 2025 acquisition of the Westin Tampa Waterside. New York-based Newbond<\/a> is led by founding partner Neil Luthra and Boston-based<\/a> private equity firm Rockpoint is led by managing director Patrick Ryan.<\/p>\n “Hotel Maren is a high-quality beachfront property in a compelling submarket with attractive long-term fundamentals,” Ryan said. “We believe there is a meaningful opportunity to build on the hotel’s existing strengths through targeted enhancements to the property and guest experience.”<\/p>\n Luthra said Fort Lauderdale Beach continues to evolve as a destination and that the firm sees an opportunity in the stretch south of Las Olas.<\/p>\n “Hotel Maren is a recently built, oceanfront asset with oversized guestrooms, exceptional water views, and a location that we believe will become increasingly compelling as the surrounding area continues to attract significant investment,” he said.<\/p>\n
