Another update: Joel Delano, banquet manager at the Hanalei, has posted a comment on my blog, giving a bit more info. He says that the hotel is becoming a Crown Plaza hotel, and will be renamed the "Crown Plaza San Diego." He says he "was quite thrilled when Tiki Oasis came this last year. I hope that all of the removed artifacts find their way back on property in time for Tiki Oasis this coming year." Here's a link to my blog post with his comment: His blog is the one that tipped me off on the changes at the Islands -- he's posted a new entry today, giving a bit of an update. He says that some walls were ripped out today, that at least one of the waterfalls might survive the remodel, but that the others are scheduled to be removed, and the waterway filled in. He says that he thinks the glass floats (which came down on Sunday) are not going up again. Here's a link to his blog post: |
