Need another reason to book your room at the Yankee Clipper now? You'll probably never get a savings like this: The Hukilau rate is $119 per night (double occupancy). I just checked the hotel's website, and the lowest rate for June 6-9 is $239 per night. You can't beat that deal.

Been checking out the sounds of Ìxtahuele (hit youtube) - headphones on and the spirit of Martin Denny and other exotica greats is present. Cannot wait.
Just checked my calendar again and hmm it's still 2/9/2013. June will be here soon enough!
