Palm Beach, Florida – September 10th, 2026 — The Palm Beach Hedge Fund Association (PBHFA.org) is pleased to announce a strategic collaboration with the Anchoraa Fund.
The Anchoraa Fund, a joint venture between Voyage Capital and HotelSHIFT, acquires extended-stay and distressed hotels in high-traffic locations within growing metros and converts them into multifamily housing at a fraction of the cost of ground-up development.
David S. Goodboy, Founder of PBHFA.org, remarked, “We are continually in pursuit of distinctive, compelling investment opportunities for our circle of ultra-high-net-worth investors and firms. By bringing a singular perspective, disciplined tactics, and seasoned expertise to the traditional real estate landscape, Voyage Capital and HotelSHIFT not only align perfectly with this mandate, but also create a compelling avenue for refined capital deployment, differentiated value creation, and enduring long-term merit. I greatly look forward to presenting the opportunity to our membership.”
Jai Desai, Principal at Voyage Capital, added, “I have spent my career in hotels — building them for third parties, acquiring them, repositioning them, and operating them through every part of the cycle. That experience is what Voyage brings to Anchoraa. With more than 110 hotels acquired, built, or developed, we know how to find well-located assets at the right basis and run them at a level most owners cannot match. Our stabilized hotels deliver current income and downside protection to investors from day one, and our acquisition pipeline gives our partners at HotelSHIFT a steady supply of well-underwritten assets to convert when the timing is right. We are pleased to bring that operating discipline to PBHFA’s membership — a partnership built on a track record, not a thesis.”
Dr. Alexander C. Cartwright, Principal at HotelSHIFT, said, “HotelSHIFT’s hotel-to-multifamily conversion projects offer our investors a high-alpha avenue to deploy capital, maximizing returns while limiting downside. In the process, we add tremendous societal value by delivering hundreds of units per year into the heavily undersupplied U.S. housing market. Combining hotel conversions in a fund with strongly cash-flowing hotel properties managed by our friends at Voyage Capital adds significant benefits in the form of immediate cash flow, downside protection and a pipeline of future hotel properties that will be converted when the time is right, maximizing return on capital.”
