ALO - ho ho ho - HA
Get out yer best Hawaiian shirt or dress, it's Party time !
An Oceanic Odyssey of music, dance, and fun.
Join us in our Pacific Island hide-away off the coast of the imagination.
Three rooms chocked full of modern Pacific Pop, authentic Pacific art, tikis galore, giant carvings, water features, palm trees, velvet paintings, hanging lights, and more than you could poke a bamboo pole at.
As well as rooms full of party goers dressed to the tees, we've invited some old friends to perform for us all and some new friends to joining the fun.
Here's the lowdown ......

THE ALOHAS
Banging drums, reverb drenched guitars, the trademark twang of the surf sound - all this can mean none other than the Alohas have taken the stage.

So soak up the surf sounds, dance and stomp the night away
BAHAMA MAMAS
