Casa Madrona Hotel & Spa

What Casa Madrona Hotel & Spa does

Casa Madrona Hotel & Spa operates a 64-key luxury waterfront property in Sausalito, California, originally built in 1885 as a Victorian mansion and converted to a hotel in 1906. The property was substantially renovated in 2010 by MetWest Terra and inducted into Historic Hotels of America in 2024. It offers three distinct accommodation experiences — Contemporary rooms, Hillside cottages, and the Historic Mansion — alongside an on-site spa, the Poggio Trattoria Italian restaurant, and multiple indoor/outdoor event venues that support weddings, corporate functions, and private gatherings.

The commercial platform combines a direct booking site powered by the Synxis reservation engine with distribution through Expedia and Booking.com, plus a Meetings & Events sales channel for group business. Pricing is composed of a nightly room rate, a 9% hotel fee, a 14.195% occupancy tax pass-through, $35–$45/night parking, and a $100 pet fee, with spa services priced at $200–$340 per session. Ancillary amenities include Tesla EV charging and in-room Chromecast streaming.

Revenue is generated through a diversified mix: transient leisure room nights, group/event bookings, spa services, F&B (Poggio Trattoria), parking, and curated experience packages (e.g., Tini Escape, Go Fetch, sailing programs). The property serves leisure travelers, corporate groups, wedding parties, and wellness guests, with a California resident rate used as a tactical regional pricing lever. The business operates as a single-asset hospitality operation with no disclosed portfolio expansion, M&A activity, or external funding rounds in the source material.
