# Pacifica Host Hotels San Diego, California. A hotel owner-operator buying single independent hotels and small inns and continuing to run them, rather than buying the real estate and handing operations to somebody else. - Website: https://www.pacificahost.com ## The Firm This is the buyer an independent innkeeper is actually looking for, and it is rare. Most confirmable acquirers in lodging are doing something else: brand companies buying brand companies, management companies buying management companies, and REITs buying the property and hiring a third-party operator. Pacifica describes itself as a hotel management and ownership company and says of its newest purchase that it plans to continue operating it. Its record is unusually legible for a private firm. One page carries nine acquisitions from 2017 to 2026, each with the property, the town and the day it closed, from a Florida Keys resort to two Oregon coast hotels bought together to a landmark on Catalina Island. Read the dates on that page carefully, because it contradicts itself twice. One item is headed the day BEFORE the closing its own body states, and another is headed with one year while its text names the next. Neither is stale; the headings and the bodies simply disagree. Its news page, opened by a rendered reader in September 2026, holds every release since 2015 on one page by year, and the one purchase the rows lacked is an 80-room Solana Beach hotel. Nothing has been bought since Hotel Mac Rae; the Ventura hotel of March 2026 was built, not bought. ## In Its Trades - Hotel: https://searchspheresource.com/guides/buying-a-hotel - Motel: https://searchspheresource.com/guides/buying-a-motel ## Confirmed Deals Deals traced to announcements, newest first. Firms that announce every deal show a fuller run here than firms that report acquisitions as quarterly counts, so read this as the evidence that clears the bar rather than as the firm's whole record. - Hotel Mac Rae (2026-02-16): A landmark hotel in Avalon on Catalina Island, which its buyer says it will keep operating as an island retreat.
