More than US$230 million has been invested to refurbish the four Sheraton Hotels in Hawaii.

The large-scale, multi-year project was completed with the recent unveiling of the Sheraton Kona Resort.

The revitalization projects include the US$188 million renewal of the Sheraton Waikiki, the US$6.5 million renovation of the Sheraton Maui Resort & Spa, a US$16 million upgrade to the Sheraton Kauai Resort, and a US$20 million refresh of the Sheraton Kona Resort & Spa at Keauhou Bay.

The Sheraton Waikiki has completed the $188 million renovation of 1,636 rooms with a theme of "contemporary Hawaiian sophistication". The renewal starts at beach level and reaches to the top of the 31-floor structure, offering new guest rooms and suites, redesigned public areas with new landscaping and pools, renewed convention facilities, new and exhilarating restaurants and bars, and new back-of-house equipment to increase service efficiency.

The $6.5 million renewal at the Sheraton Maui Resort & Spa introduced warm Hawaiian colors, textiles and prints to the 508-room resort. Incorporating traditional Hawaiian artwork, light hues, plush carpeting and drapery, and new tropical furnishings the resort has created a comfortable setting for guests. With wireless Internet now in every guest room, the resort now offers an elevated in-room experience that enables guests to remain connected with what matters most. The Sheraton Maui Resort & Spa has also taken several steps toward sustainability with the installation of electric vehicle charging stations in the parking structure.

Sheraton Kauai Resort, nestled into 20 acres along Kauai's world-renowned Poipu Beach, completed a $16 million revitalization in April. Upon arriving at the 394-room resort guests are greeted by a refurbished and modern porte-cochere and the beautifully upgraded Ocean Lobby. The lobby opens into a new, open-air Ocean Courtyard that is landscaped and adorned with tiki torches. It features six seating areas, three of which have fire pits. An added breezeway provides direct access to the resort's newly expanded and tiered Ocean Pool, lined with eight private, vibrant bungalows sitting just above the shore. The hotel's Rum Fire restaurant is the island's newest hotspot and offers 180-degree ocean views from its 240-seat restaurant and lounge. For those seeking the consummate venue for meetings, banquets or special celebrations, the new Luana Kai room overlooks Poipu Beach.

The newly renamed Sheraton Kona Resort & Spa (formerly Sheraton Keauhou Bay Resort & Spa) completed a $20 million resort renewal in September 2012. Considerable resources have been invested not only in physical revitalization but also into efforts to better connect guests with Keauhou's rich history by offering more meaningful, culturally authentic experiences. Significant enhancements to guestrooms, public areas and meeting spaces include culturally inspired designs by Hawaii designer Sig Zane. A new lobby arrival experience and Flying Fish activity outfitters complement and add to the fun, excitement and ultimate experience that many already enjoy. New oceanfront dining concepts include Rays on the Bay.
