Honeymoon at The Waikikian

As if the marriage ceremony and wedding reception and luau were not enough, Cousin Danny arranged for a special honeymoon getaway for Dan and Mayone at the famous Waikikian Hotel just down the beach from Queen's Surf. The following pictures show why this historic hotel was so popular and unique.

Although closed in 1996 and demolished in 2005 the Waikikian is representative of
Classic Mid-century Pacific "Tiki" Architecture

The Waikikian was one of the 1950's, pre-highrise hotels that featured a new "tropical" architecture.

 Cousin Danny arranged for breakfast to be sent by room service and Dan and Mayone recall that this was the first time either of them had Eggs Benedict!
