Pendry Cuts Ribbon on Newport Beach Hotel

Pendry Hotels & Resorts held the grand opening of Pendry Newport Beach, marking the brand’s eighth property in the collection and third opening in Southern California. Located nearby Fashion Island, one of Orange County’s premier shopping destinations, Pendry Newport Beach features 295 redesigned guestrooms including 114 suites overlooking the Pacific Ocean, Newport Harbor and/or Back Bay.

“We are incredibly excited to debut Pendry Newport Beach with our partners at Eagle Four,” said Alan J. Fuerstman, founder, chairman and CEO, Montage International, owner of the Pendry brand. “We look forward to bringing the vibrancy and gracious hospitality of Pendry to Orange County and showcasing all that we have to offer to our guests and the local community.”

The property was purchased in February 2022 by an affiliate of Eagle Four Partners, LLC, owners and operators of a portfolio of private clubs, hotels and resorts in coastal Orange County. It was formerly known as the Fashion Island Hotel.
