The adjacent Las Colinas Resort (formerly the Four Seasons Resort Dallas at Las Colinas), a 431-key luxury hotel, was recently acquired by a joint venture between Partners Group and funds managed by Trinity Fund Advisors LLC, an affiliate of Trinity Real Estate Investments. The new owners plan to undertake a multi-million-dollar capital improvement plan that will establish the resort as the premier group and leisure destination in the Dallas Metroplex. The renovated resort will subsequently be operated by The Ritz-Carlton Hotel Company, LLC. The sports club will maintain a close working relationship with the resort.
