The historic Kona Kai Resort & Spa on Shelter Island has reopened and management is ready for the busy travel season ahead.
Following the multimillion-dollar revitalization, the resort will open its doors this summer with 129 new and improved guest rooms, a full-service spa, redesigned lobby, remodeled waterfront restaurant and a variety of other amenities.
All construction is completed and all amenities will be available to guests this coming summer season. This is the first season that will feature an entirely renovated and open resort.
Described by account manager Sonia Sparks as a “legend reborn,” the renovations were completed with the intent of preserving the historic character of the resort but modernizing the amenities.
According to creative director Scott Colee, the resort is now more attractive to vacationers than ever before and management is able to build lasting relationships with guests.
“We have everything for the perfect summer vacation without ever having to step foot off the property,” Colee said. “Our team is dedicated to making the guests’ stay in San Diego so memorable and special they return to Kona Kai over and over again.”
Historically known as the “club of all clubs,” Kona Kai is the only resort in the area with a private beach exclusively for resort guests and club members. All amenities, new and old, will be open to guests and Kona Kai Club members, many of whom have been docking their boats in the Kona Kai Marina for years.
The waterfront Vessel Restaurant has been completely remodeled and is ready to offer food and drink services to guests and club members all summer long.
The new SpaTerre officially opened in December and will experience its first busy summer season in the coming months. SpaTerre offers a full-service spa, make-up artistry, bridal services and a brand new fitness center. According to Sparks, SpaTerre has the services and Kona Kai has the space for the perfect summer wedding. “It is a haven of relaxation for guests, club members and San Diego locals alike,” Sparks said.
Poolside, the new Tiki Bar will offer a variety of drinks to transport guests and members to paradise and will also host live music featuring local bands and musicians.
“Kona Kai Resort & Spa is a prime destination for locals and visitors,” Sparks said. “It is a perfect choice for families and couples looking for an easy, convenient getaway.”
