History
The Hilton Waterfront Beach Resort opened in July 1990, constructed at a cost of $55 million.[1]
In February 2016, the owner announced a $140 million expansion and renovation project to add a nine-story suite-only tower, containing 151 suites, 14,000 square feet of meeting space, a restaurant, a spa, and other amenities.[2][3] The new Twin Dolphin Tower was opened in 2017. The project was completed by the end of 2019 after the opening of a 8,000-square-foot spa.[4][5] At the conclusion of renovations, the hotel was renamed The Waterfront Beach Resort.[6]
