SANTA’S GONE KAUAIIAN!

Visitors will love our “Santa’s Gone Kauaiian“ theme and the gorgeous hand-crafted “Trash to Treasure” decorations art-directed by Elizabeth Freeman and created by Kauai’s talented teens! In the twinkling interior look for our beautiful new Kauai Lantern Tree, the dazzling Kauai Mermaid Kingdom, our “Beautiful Kauai” Tree, the upcycled “Over the Rainbow Tree”, our “Bling It On” Peacock Tree, Santa’s Cane Train Village, and everybody’s favorites: the SPAM Can Tree and “Surfin’ Santa”! And don’t miss the glorious collection of Christmas Folk Art created by Auntie Josie Chansky.
