Raines Adds Sea Palms Resort in St. Simons Island to Its Management Portfolio

USA, Florence, South Carolina. August 14, 2024

Raines, a leading hospitality management, development, and investment organization, has welcomed the Sea Palms Resort in St. Simons Island, GA, to its management portfolio. This addition, owned by RREAF Holdings, is now part of Woven by Raines, the company's lifestyle division, and includes a golf course, marking the second golf course managed by Raines.

Sea Palms Resort, nestled in an upscale resort community at 515 North Windward Drive, offers a unique blend of luxury and leisure. St. Simons Island, recognized as one of the most popular island destinations in the world in 2023 by Travel & Leisure, provides an ideal setting for this distinguished property. The 121-room property, recently renovated to offer upgraded suites, caters to a wide range of guests and groups. On-site amenities include an outdoor pool, tennis courts, fitness center, and bike rentals. The expansive outdoor "Pool Yard" features a turf lawn for yard games and a patio with fireplaces and lounge chairs, providing a perfect setting for relaxation and socializing.

The hotel's full-service restaurant, Sago at Sea Palms, is named after a palm species native to the area. Sago serves lunch and dinner Monday through Saturday and a Sunday brunch buffet. It offers guests and neighbors fresh and locally sourced ingredients perfect for a family dinner or post-golf winddown.

Sea Palms Resort is also home to the Sea Palms Golf Club, which includes an 18-hole course with views of the coastal landscape, a Golf Shop & Marketplace, and a practice facility often utilized by touring golf professionals.

"Raines has been focused on calculated growth in the right markets with the right partners, and we are very excited to partner once again with RREAF Holdings on Sea Palms Resort," said Grey Raines, managing partner of Raines. "Further, we are delighted to add another fantastic boutique property to our Woven by Raines portfolio, which specializes in creating tailor-made experiences for boutique properties. We expect great things from this hotel and the thriving St. Simons Island market."

"Raines continues to excel as a valued management partner, and we are delighted to announce the expansion of our collaboration with Sea Palms Resort," said Kip Sowden, Chairman and CEO of RREAF Holdings. "We eagerly anticipate deepening our partnership further, with a shared commitment to future projects that promise continued success."

Raines is in a period of intense growth. The company has added approximately 20 properties to its management portfolio in the first six months of the year, including 16 hotels in a landmark deal with Atlantic Hotels Group. In April, Raines established its partnership with RREAF Holdings by securing the management contract for Cambria Charleston Riverview. In 2023, Raines also acquired third-party management company HP Hotels, reopened the Waynesville Inn & Golf Club, and commemorated its 35th year in the hospitality industry.
