Renovation and Reopening
In 2023, the Waucoma Hotel building began an extensive renovation to restore its original function as a hotel. The redevelopment, led by Carrington "Ceb" Barrs and Gabriel Genauer, aims to modernize the historic structure while preserving its architectural character. The project includes structural and seismic upgrades, expansion of the basement level, and the installation of a replica of the original rooftop trellis.
The updated hotel, renamed Lightwell Hotel and Spa, features 69 guest rooms, a rooftop bar, a Mediterranean restaurant, a large soaking pool and spa facilities offering massage services. The boutique hotel opened in November 2025.[4]
