Outrigger Resumes Acquisition Of Hawai‘i Island Resort

Outrigger Hospitality Group announced today that it has revived its plan to acquire ownership of Sheraton Kona Resort & Spa at Keauhou Bay, a 509-room property in a prime oceanfront location on the Island of Hawai'i. The transaction is expected to close in late August 2021, at which time the property will be rebranded as Outrigger Kona Resort and Spa.

With nearly 75 years of successful leadership in Hawai'i's hospitality industry and 25 hotels, resorts and vacation condos across the Hawaiian Islands - Outrigger is uniquely positioned to steward this property.

The lush 22-acre (9 ha) resort is perched prominently atop dramatic lava-rock cliffs and includes an oceanfront pool and waterslide, spa, wedding chapel, cultural centre, fitness centre, kids club, two restaurants and four indoor meeting venues - including a 10,000 square-foot (929m2) convention centre, the largest on the Kona Coast. The turquoise waters surrounding the resort are home to one of the only places in the world where people can regularly swim with manta rays.
