Kings’ Shops at Waikoloa Beach Resort has commenced a multi-phase renovation project, according to a recent article from the Honolulu Star-Advertiser. The renovations began in July and are anticipated to be finished by winter 2025. The project includes updates to common areas, landscaping, and restrooms, according to Big Island Now.
The renovation is designed to elevate the look and feel of the center, creating a more attractive destination for both visitors and residents. The Kings Shops website highlights that the project will focus on energizing the dining and shopping experiences. The redevelopment will update communal outdoor spaces to elevate the experiences for visitors. The shopping center is already fully open during the construction period, ensuring minimal disruption to guests seeking dining, shopping, and cultural events.
This renovation is significant for local businesses, as it potentially increases foot traffic and spending within the center. The enhancements are expected to boost the overall appeal of the resort area, potentially benefiting nearby hotels, restaurants, and other businesses reliant on tourism. The improvements to Kings' Shops may also lead to increased property values and investment opportunities in the Waikoloa area, which could positively impact real estate and development in the region.
Such improvements are vital given the competitive nature of the Hawaiian tourism market. As detailed by Hawaii Tribune-Herald, the shops are an important factor for tourists visiting the Big Island and they will aim to improve customer’s overall experience.
