Westin Savannah Harbor Golf Resort & Spa sold to Hersha Hotels and Resorts

SAVANNAH, Ga. (WTOC) - JLL’s Hotels & Hospitality Group announced the sale of The Westin Savannah Harbor Golf Resort & Spa to Hersha Hotels and Resorts, a KSL portfolio company.

The deal marks the third time JLL has sold the asset in 10 years.

About the property

The Westin Savannah Harbor is described as downtown Savannah’s only urban resort. The property sits on 299 acres on Hutchinson Island and is adjacent to the recently expanded Savannah Convention Center.

The resort features 403 guestrooms, more than 51,800 square feet of flexible indoor and outdoor meeting space, and five food and beverage outlets. Amenities include an 18-hole championship golf course designed by Robert Cupp and Sam Snead, a 17-treatment-room Heavenly Spa by Westin, a resort-style pool with river views, tennis and pickleball facilities, and an 18-hole disc golf course.

The property offers ferry access to Savannah’s Historic District.

“Savannah continues to demonstrate exceptional momentum as both a leisure destination and thriving corporate market,” said Dickey. “The Westin’s unique positioning adjacent to the expanded convention center, coupled with being the only true resort in the market with excess land that will benefit from the residential success in Savannah Harbor, creates a compelling value proposition that sets it apart from traditional urban hotels in this rapidly growing market.”
