Lots of cool little mom & pop motels with little log cabins and such, but I only know (have seen inside) a few of them. I'll try to find my old post with a list of ones I know are pretty good. And so far, there's only ONE I've heard nightmares about, and its the one semi-across the street from The Tiki. I don't remember the name (I'll do a google street view or something to find it) but its too bad because it would make a great over-flow hotel for its location! It had a bunch of nautical flags hanging over it and a faux ship's mast over the lobby. I know, I know, it sounds cool, but those who have stayed there said they'd never do it again and switched motels after the first night! As with any hotel though, Your Mileage May Vary. You never know if you just had a bad housekeeper or if the problems are systemic at any given place, so I don't want to throw too many stones, but I also want you to be made aware of possible problems. That being said, there's nothing wrong with trying to save a few bucks, and everyone, please be sure to let us know how the places are (if you stay elsewhere). If you find a great place, we'll try to work a deal with them next year. If you find a rat-hole, let us know so we can avoid it like cheap rum! Let me see if I can jog the working synapses in my brain for info on the "bad" motel. And in the meantime, tickets are going pretty fast! About 50% sold out for Ohana, and 70% sold out for the boat!!! Dont delay! Buy today! http://www.LuauAtTheLake.com [ Edited by: Bargoyle 2012-01-30 06:20 ]
