Did a newspaper archive search and found out a little more. The Latai Inn opened in November 1967 and was "tasteful","luxurious" resort on an island known for its golf courses and clubs. It hosted an art show and reception in 1968. Don't know if the swizzle came from a small tiki lounge in an otherwise non-tiki Inn, or if the entire resort was Polynesian-themed. I'd love to find out more info too. |
