You know what would be cool? Go the other direction and make some place that wasn't before, tiki!

Paradise point in san diego used to be called vacation village back in the 70's. We used to go their for mini-vacations. The whole "island" was filled, I mean filled with ornamental tropical foliage! The bar used to be some sort of theme bar, perhaps tiki (I was too young to go in) but when I went back a few years ago there was a fake lava walkway leading into the bar (which was sunken) and a rather ornate "castle" style door...

Anyway, imagine what a bamboo ben or crazy al could do if you let them run wild and convert the entire hotel into a tiki island! Then have your Tiki Oasis there.


I love Paradise Point, right off the water, with Bungalows and plenty of green.
It may be the closest thing to Hawaii!
It is tiki in every sense, except for, of course, the lack of Tiki.
