United States -  Anaheim - Santa Ana

The Anaheim-Santa Ana hotel market spans the entirety of Orange County, which supports a diverse base of economic industries and sectors, including technology, finance, manufacturing, education, and healthcare, among others. Orange County's hotel submarkets include Orange, Garden Grove, Anaheim (which features the Disney theme parks), Buena Park (home of Knott's Berry Farm), Irvine (home to University of California Irvine's campus and numerous corporate headquarters), and the affluent coastal communities of Dana Point, Huntington Beach, Laguna Beach, and Newport Beach. From 2022 through 2024, occupancy for this market surpassed 70.0%, similar to levels recorded in the early 2000s but well below the peak occupancy period of 2014 through 2019. ADR declined slightly in 2024, but remained nevertheless strong and near the $210 mark. Some softening in transient demand was balanced by strengthening group demand. Mid-year 2025 demand trends have been favorable, with occupancy rising. Group demand continues to strengthen at modestly lower rates, which is driving the overall region's ADR slightly downward. The popularity of the area with regional and national leisure travelers and the growing trend of return-to-office operations in the county's corporate office parks should continue to support strong demand levels.
