Actually, it's much older. But, you're also sort of correct. The resort did close in 1999 for a complete renovation.
"The Waikoloa Beach Marriott Resort & Spa was the first hotel built at Waikoloa Beach Resort. When it opened in 1981 as the Sheraton Royal Waikoloan — the same year the Beach Golf Course opened — it signaled the beginnings of the grand master plan that would play out at Waikoloa over the ensuing four decades."
