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 health care, 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. In the years following the pandemic, occupancy stabilized in the low-70.0% range, comparable to levels observed in the early 2000s but well below the peak occupancy achieved from 2014 through 2019. ADR reached a record level in 2023, before moderating slightly in 2024 as leisure demand normalized, and remaining flat in 2025. More recently, occupancy, ADR, and RevPAR have strengthened, reflecting continued growth in convention activity, improving corporate travel, and the area's enduring appeal as one of Southern California's premier leisure destinations. Continued investment throughout the Anaheim Resort District, together with Orange County's diverse economy and broad mix of demand generators, should continue to support healthy lodging demand and strong market performance.

* Although the HVI cannot tell you what a particular hotel is worth, it does provide excellent “big picture” data, indicating which market areas are experiencing positive trends, and thus may present good investment opportunities. The HVI for the U.S. is a measure of the strength of the lodging industry as a whole and, specifically, the hospitality investment market. The HVI for the various identified markets can provide a basis to evaluate and compare different geographic regions.
