I wasn't quite sure where to post. This topic looked like a good start.

Some of you received my email on/around April 1 regarding our departure from the Caliente tropics Resort. We are no longer involved with the daily operation of the Resort. The Resort has been repositioned, eliminating some amenities and services which made us a favorite with many regular customers.

Although I don't know for a fact, I believe most of the artifacts, memorabilia, artwork, restoration, etc., will remain in place (yes, Monkeyman's Tiki Central picture board is safe). In fact, it semed to us that ANYTHING that was Tiki and not tied-down was literally thrown at us as we exited. For those of you who know the property, you know how much time and effort went to promoting, procuring and maintaining the heritage and personality of the business.

Our abrupt departure was unplanned. To say we've been treated unprofessionally is a gross mis-understatement. For those of you who did not receive the email announcing our move, it was only because I simply couldn’t get to every contact in our email address book, when the unexpected changes were happening quickly.

Thank you for your patience and support. I can’t think of a time that has been more challenging than the past 30 days or so. I look forward to seeing you soon.
