Tiki Time Warp is dedicated to preserving past Tiki Oasis Room Party history; and to showcase the creativity, concepts, artists, cocktails, musicians, and collaborative efforts of the numerous people involved in these events.
The section ALL ROOM PARTY HISTORY will showcase any information that I can gather about the previous Room Parties that I can find. Mostly this will be information that was public knowledge at the time, but, may include information that the originators of those events want to share.
***PLEASE NOTE*** This will take time to add all this info !!***
***I am at least some basic details of each year. Please help by sharing your photos, and stories !!***
The section OUR HISTORY will showcase the info from Tiki Time Warp, and any of our events.
Both these sections may contain placeholder pics and text.
This section ABOUT includes a quick summary of WHAT WE ENJOY and some mini bios in WHO WE ARE of the Pa'ina Krewe that have helped with the events.
There are links to almost everyone named in this website in the LINKS section under the MORE tab. This will continue to expand as more info is added.
We love hosting events!! We strive to accurately recreate cocktails and themes from previous years....and also create some new experiences!!
Events are a core element as it allows us to share what we learn and re-introduce these past experiences, and cocktails to a new generation.
Events will typically include a Time Warp drink, and a new drink to match the current theme.
Collaboration is another core element to the Tiki Time Warp concept.
Working together with individuals, groups, and sponsors to showcase their past efforts for those that missed it ..or.. might have forgotten. ;)
Have some Tiki Oasis Room Party info to share? We would love to hear from you !!
Started in 2017 to research and document history related to Tiki Oasis Room Parties, the founder of Tiki Time Warp (PineappleWhip) was enraptured and inspired by all the creativity, individuals, and efforts that people put into their room & suite parties at Tiki Oasis.
This website is dedicated to all those individuals, groups, and sponsors for their efforts; and hopes to be a resource to help put all the information in one accessible place.
A great amount of this information was gathered from countless hours of research on
It is an amazing resource for tiki lovers. Thanks to a few amazing people it is now active again!!
I also need to give a huge round of thanks to Adrian Eustaquio aka PolynesianPop at:
He is a wealth of information and rivals Tiki Central in knowledge and contacts. Check out his podcast, ..it is a premiere podcast for fans of Tiki, Cocktails, Exotica /Hawaiiana / Surf Music, and Polynesian Pop.
Thank you PolynesianPop !!
I need to give a big shout out to
for his amazing design for the TTW logo words....as well as
for help with the TTW logo spiral.
I must also give some major acknowledgement to WooHooWahine and SoccerTiki. They have been organizers for the Room Parties for many years, managing the ice distribution, coordinating the room party judges, dedicating their time to helping everyone (new ...or... experienced) to throw their best party, and getting the word out to everyone to have a fun experience, no matter what the uniqueness of their party.
I also want to thank the judges for their work for over a decade of helping to make these parties fun, and collaborative!!
Of course, I must give an enormous THANK YOU to Tiki Oasis, without whom, none of this would be possible. The producers of Tiki Oasis have tirelessly curated an event that has spanned over 20 years, and provided a community like atmosphere, performances from world class entertainers, a marketplace for some of the worlds most talented artists, and opportunities for sponsors to connect to a unique and dedicated audience.
There is a very long list of all the contributors needed to get this info in one place. Everyone that has Hosted a Room Party, or, a Suite Party....THANK YOU !! Your hard work and creativity is as inspiring as it is FUN !!
I want to make sure to thank Kevin Upthegrove for all his photography!! He has a great archive of pictures from previous Tiki Oasis, especially of the room and suite parties. His website has details about his photo archive, and his podcast.
I also want to thank numerous people helping to get me the previous Tiki Oasis Programs; individuals who have volunteered recipes, and party details; pics from photographers; etc. I will work on getting that list together eventually.
While exploring the jungles of digital urban archeology, I found plenty of missing information, conflicting information, and lost trails in my digital wanderings. I intend this to be a place for people to feel free to submit info related to Tiki Oasis Room Parties (if they wish). Please feel free to ask questions, submit info to fill in holes, or clarify mis-typed details....by contacting me on the contact page. If you hosted a party, and want to add some info please feel free to write some details...
Please feel free to come back often as you wish, as there is a lot of info not yet added, and it will take a while to upload.

It is with very sad hearts that we write here that Kookylukyau is no longer with us. We will always remember Kookylukyau. He was a genuinely amazing guy. A great home bartender, an amazing father, a great co-worker, a genuinely giving soul, and a fiercely dedicated friend. He may be gone from this place, but, he will never be forgotten. As long as we continue, we will honor him and his legacy. We all miss his humor, friendship, and good natured spirit.
Rest well my friend.
He was a Pa'ina Krewe Bartender of amazing skill, Co-Creator of Tiki Time Warp, and Co-Producer of Events.
