The Kon Tiki Motel used to have a couple of billboards on I-35 as one approached San Antonio from the north. The billboards definitely had a Polynesian theme to them--and advertised dirt cheap rates. I actually tried to find it back in 1997, when I was traveling and pretty broke, but I couldn't find the darn place. A decade later, when I lived in SA briefly, I tried to find it, but it was either gone or the name had changed. Being so close to Randolph AFB, I figured it was your run of the mill cheap lodging for visiting military families and the like.
