If there’s any one person who knows how to turn dirt into gold, it’s P. Moss, owner of the Double Down Saloon. He made his “Happiest Place on Earth” – really, the diviest of Las Vegas dive bars – into an internationally renowned punk rock icon, so much that it warranted a second location opening in New York City’s Bowery just a few years back.
So it stands to reason that when Moss re-opens the former Frankie’s Bar & Cocktail Lounge (1712 W. Charleston Blvd.) on Dec. 4 as Frankie’s Tiki Room, we’ll no doubt be in the presence of another truly legendary Vegas watering hole. The bar proprietor’s latest acquisition will be getting a full overhaul, according to Moss pal and local editor and writer James Reza.
“Moss assures me that this is no half-assed superficial remodel,” Reza writes on his blog. “This is the first serious tiki bar in Vegas since Taboo Cove at the Venetian closed. These design cats have connections to the Stardust’s Aku Aku and Disneyland’s Tiki Room.”
Stay tuned for more information as the opening date gets closer; until then, bookmark the Frankie’s Tiki Room website, still under construction.

If people are looking to crash in a house - it looks like we have a very minimally furnished "psuedo tiki" house available for rent that week... in fact we were thinking of working with da owners to turn it into a full time vacation rental - and kinda make it like the Tiki Central clubhouse of Las Vegas? There are 2 Leroy Schmalz tikis, another unnamed tiki + a couple of Cherry Capri tiki paintings and a host of tiki mugs (so you don't have to travel with mugs...), fork and spoons, etc...
it's only a mile and a half or so from the strip and the peppermill and 4 miles or about 10 mins to the new tiki bar.
would anyone be interested in that?

Allegiantair ( www.allegiantair.com ) has some cheap prices to Vegas from odd locations. Flights from Stockton run as low as $100 round trip (leave Weds pm , return Fri pm.) Other CA departure cities; Fresno, Monterey, Santa Barbara and Santa Maria. They fly from other states, too.
