The Coral Isle Motel was built at 5601 Hollywood Boulevard, in the Morgan’s Hollywood Tract, in 1957 for owner-developer Irving Sutter. In June 1956, Richard E. Garland demolished an existing residential structure; the parcel also contained a recent building, used as a real estate office, built in 1945.

Construction on the Coral Isle was underway by April 1957. It catered more to long-term residents rather than transient guests.
