The Sheraton Keauhou Bay Resort and Spa will reopen fully later this year following the completion of a US$16m (13m euro, £10.1m) redevelopment of the property in Hawaii, US.

As part of the work, the resort will be renamed as Sheraton Kona Resort and Spa at Keauhou Bay on 1 September.

The redevelopment has included a radical upgrade of all its public facilities - including the 4,000sq ft (372sq m) Ho'ola Spa with eight treatment rooms, an infra-red sauna and a steamroom.

Steve Lindburg, the resort's general manager, said the upgrade also included bringing Hawaiian culture to the centre of the customer journey.

"We have invested considerable resources not only into revitalization of the resort's physical plant but also into efforts to better connect our guests with this area's rich history and culture so that we might share more meaningful, authentic experiences with them," he said.

Hawaiian designer Sig Zane was appointed to create an authentic feel to the interior of the resort.
