- Outrigger Waikīkī Beach Resort – Undergoing a $100M, 524-room phased renovation set for completion in late 2026, marking the brand’s fourth major Waikīkī refresh since 2018. Read More
- Coco Palms Resort (Kauaʻi) – Just kidding… At this point, it’s more legend than project.
Renovation Translation Table:
- Refresh – The “we had a little budget left” special. Paint, maybe some artwork, and a deep clean that should’ve happened anyway. May include some soft and hard goods.
- Soft Goods Renovation – New carpet, curtains, bedding, maybe a chair if we’re feeling generous. Same room, we just changed the outfit.
- Hard Goods Renovation – Furniture, case goods, bathrooms, fixtures. This is actual money being spent, not just a trip to the design showroom clearance rack.
- Multi-Million Dollar Renovation – Usually means “low” multi-millions. If it were $50M+, trust me… they’d tell you.
- Full Renovation – Everything short of knocking the building down.
- Phased Renovation – We’re renovating while staying open with earplugs as the new amenity.
And once any of these are done, you can officially declare that the hotel has been “reimagined.” 😉
