Welcome to Tiki Central, RoseRed! You'll have a blast at Tiki Oasis! I could have sworn that there were some tips for first timers for Tiki Oasis, but I couldn't find any. So here are a few tips off the top of my head:

6.) Try to hit at least part of the parties on the room crawl. Shell In The Pacific organizes the room crawl, and it's been a tradition that dates back to the Palm Spring days of Oasis at the Caliente Tropics. Make sure to bring a bottle of something for your room hosts as well, and/or cash to tip as well, because they are hosting and paying for their nice party out of their own pockets. If you're a decent mixologist, you should consider participating as one of the hosts on the room crawl. If you go this route, I'd recommend making a simple yet decent drink, or a punch, from the Grog Log or similar book.

Mai Tai, great list of tips! Mind if I steal them and post them on the Tiki Oasis website!?!

I want to add to the above:
Bring your own mug, but be sure to include a nametag/dogtag/mugtag on it with your name and room number so when you get drunk and leave it somewhere it can find its way home. Sometimes room parties run out of cups and if so then you got no drink unless you bring our own mug. Also, we don't want to consume 5000 plastic cups over the weekend, just 5000 Mai Tais!

Tip #10 The hotel has a Lost and Found. Use it before you leave if anything is missing.
