“The idea for the Sheraton Redding at the Sundial Bridge was born of necessity. We needed to find a way for the park to become more self-sufficient from a funding standpoint,” said Mike Warren, President and CEO of Turtle Bay Exploration Park. “The addition of the hotel is a real success story. All hotel profits benefit Turtle Bay Exploration Park and its programs. The park is a tremendous asset to the local community. Many individuals and organizations came together to help bring the hotel to fruition. The hotel stands as a testament to the strength and commitment of our community.”
The 20-million-dollar construction project took two years to complete following several years of planning. The property is owned by SSR (Sheraton Sundial Redding) a corporation that was started by the Turtle Bay Exploration Park, specifically to support the hotel project. SSR worked with local businesses whenever possible, hiring Redding based contractors, architects and crews. The opening of the Sheraton Redding brings 80+ new jobs to the area. SSR contracts AZUL Hospitality Group to manage the property.
