ORLANDO, FL – Marcus & Millichap Capital Corporation (MMCC) has arranged $42 million in refinancing for the newly renovated Doubletree by Hilton – Orlando at SeaWorld on International Drive.

The 1,100-room resort offers a mix of business and family amenities, including 60,000 square feet of convention/catering space, and many other facilities.

“The resort is located in one of the world’s most popular vacation spots, Orlando. In fact, this year, surpassed New York City as the country’s largest tourist destination,” says Rock.

“To complete this transaction, we worked diligently to understand each and every detail of the property’s operating fundamentals,” Rock notes.

“The property has recently finished a complete renovation and has enjoyed a significantly improved operating performance. As a result, the owner wanted to refinance the property.

“We brought a great lender to our client and they were successful in providing a three-year loan term on terms acceptable to our client,” Rock adds.

“The capital markets are very challenging right now, especially for financing hotels,” Rock concludes. “In spite of these challenges, we were able to bring in a lender that understood those complexities and was able to perform.”

According to the property ownership, the hotel is enjoying rapid growth since the new renovation and is a great destination.
