Special Edition Podcast: Behind the Scenes of Our Catalina + Bodega Bay Acquisitions
Description
If you're an accredited investor interested in our Catalina deal, connect with us at somerscapital.com/invest
Rich sits down live from one of their boutique properties in the Little Italy neighborhood of San Diego with Alex Johnson and Lauren Turpie from Somers Capital. They break down the shift away from large, traditional hotels toward “vibe-driven” boutique stays people actually want to share, and why that demand is accelerating as Airbnb loses its edge.
They also go inside Somers Capital’s strategy as they acquire two more hotels along the California coast, bringing their total to eight under the Somers Collection brand. The team shares how they’re using AI across the business, from dynamic pricing systems making 100–200 daily adjustments to personalized AI concierges like “Brooklyn” that handle guest experiences, drive reviews, and increase revenue. They also touch on leveraging influencers, operational efficiencies, and what’s actually making these properties outperform.
