How about a Tiki Central Resort? - Bilge

I propose an island with either an existing or man-made river or canal that cuts the island in half. On one side of the island you'll have the docks for the TC Resorts cruiseship - now these docks will be done up as an derelict outpost in the middle of the South Pacific - a couple rusty freighters (done up nice and livable to serve as housing for employees of TC Resorts) - a couple faux-seedy looking operational bars/restaurants for those disembarking from the ship - all done in a Disney style with lots of props and atmosphere to make it feel as if you've stepped into another world. I can see some boom cranes loaded with copra, rum barrels sitting around the docks, etc. all while drums are thundering in the distance. Now this is where the guests will board a jungle steamer ala the African Queen or Jungle Cruise to make their trek down the canal or river, through the dangers of the deep jungle - with headhunters, rapids, etc. - just like the Jungle Cruise - and finally to the other side of the island where paradise awaits... more later - gotta get to work.
