History
The hotel opened its doors in 1927. It served as a local landmark for decades. In 1996, its architectural and historical value earned it a place on the National Register. A more difficult chapter followed. The city of New Port Richey purchased the building in 2003, a decisive step toward its preservation. On September 15, 2022, the Hacienda welcomed guests again as a hotel.
What you see
The building is the work of Thomas Reed Martin, a Florida architect of the period. Its name suggests a Spanish-influenced design, fitting for the region. Today the hotel includes a full-service restaurant and bar called Sasha’s On the Park.
Cultural significance
Listing on the U.S. National Register of Historic Places in 1996 confirmed the Hacienda’s importance to New Port Richey. The city’s decision to buy the building in 2003 kept that legacy intact. Its reopening in 2022 returned a piece of the city’s Main Street to active public life.
