Morrill joins Sheraton Keauhou Bay Resort from The Royal Hawaiian, a Luxury Collection Resort, where she was director of sales and marketing since 2007. She has held the position of director of product development, Hawaii luxury, at Classic Custom Vacations and was a regional director of sales for the luxury travel wholesale company.

From 2000 to 2003, Morrill held the position of director of leisure sales for Starwood Hotels & Resorts Hawaii, at which time she managed key domestic wholesale accounts for all hotels within the region including Maui, Kauai, Lanai, Big Island and Oahu.

She also has directed the sales & marketing efforts at Kahala Mandarin; Hotel Hana Maui; Molokai Ranch; and Princeville Hotel & Resort.

“Lisa brings more than 20 years of sales and marketing experience in the luxury hospitality market to Sheraton Keauhou Bay at an important time for us,” general manager Tetsuji Yamazaki said. “As we embark on our guest room soft goods renovation and Link@Sheraton installation, Lisa is the perfect person to lead our sales team as they work to bring more leisure and group travelers to our resort.”

Morrill, who was born and raised on Maui, graduated from the University of Hawaii with a Bachelor of Arts in international business.

Like all hotels within Starwood’s robust portfolio, Sheraton Keauhou Bay offers the Starwood Preferred Guest® program, which made headlines when it launched in 1999 with a breakthrough policy of no blackout dates on Free Night Awards. SPG® offers members the ability to redeem awards at more resorts and hotels than any other hotel program.

Situated on an ancient lava flow at Keauhou Bay, Sheraton Keauhou Bay Resort & Spa offers 521 spacious guestrooms and suites featuring ultra-comfortable Sheraton Sweet Sleeper beds. The resort’s multi-level Manta Ray Super Slide & Pool and its 200-foot-long lava tube waterslide make water a central feature of the resort.

From a viewing area at water’s edge, seeing Manta Ray dance their nightly ocean ballet adds an indelible and cherished memory to the visits of many guests. Hoola Spa offers indoor or ocean side patio treatments that are Hawaiian-inspired and focus on health and wellbeing.

An adjacent convention center, a weekly lu’au dinner and show, shopping and dining options on property and nearby along with the lovely Bayside Wedding Center and Chapel make Sheraton Keauhou Bay Resort & Spa a comforting and obvious choice for any traveler.
