It's definitely a copyright infringement, but unless Munktiki and/or Tiki Oasis (or the organizers) registered their copyrights on the images, etc, then it's probably not going to be worth their time & money to sue, since they won't be able to sue for lawyer/legal expenses.

The need to register copyrights so that you have legal recourse was discussed a while ago, here: https://tikicentral.com/viewtopic-new.php?topic=3120&forum=1

So it is slimy, but it may not be something that can be pursued legally.
