RE: Naniloa Hotel to Become DoubleTree by Hilton - HereOnThePrimalEdge - 05-15-2015 How is the military involved? It's the perfect location to spot aircraft landing at the airport. I thought something suspicious was going on down there when just this past week "they" fenced in a large area at the airport closest to Banyan Drive. "They" cut down all of the mango trees inside the new enclosure, but mysteriously left the banyan standing. Banyan tree = Banyan Drive, clearly there is some connection between the new construction in both areas. The fenced in area at the airport is quite large and could be used for any number of suspicious imaginary military activities. Perhaps temporarily holding all of the guests from the Naniloa for slave labor to build and launch satellites, or maybe even when "they" round up the TMT protesters it will be used as a detention center until enough ships and planes can be brought in to transfer protestors to undisclosed locations never... to be... seen... again. It boggles the mind. By the way, does anyone know why the airport really extended the fence and cut down all the mango trees? Lots of people collected the fruit when it was mango season.

Yes: a source of free non-GMO food that doesn't involve both tracking the recipients and forwarding most of the "benefit" money to large corporations. Can't have that.

RE: Naniloa Hotel to Become DoubleTree by Hilton - HereOnThePrimalEdge - 05-15-2015 Thanks Obie, Well, at half a million dollars it does look a bit like a giant batting cage. RE: Naniloa Hotel to Become DoubleTree by Hilton - opihikao - 05-15-2015 Oh, Mr. Tom, and HOTPE, it's not the military, didn't you hear? The airport enclosure is for the alien ships to land and do tours to and from the Kalapana landing site! Depending on which planet they come from, lunch or dinner may be included (ie. ala carte, European plan, etc.). Dinner tours will hover above Halemaumau Crater and dessert trays will be passed once the ship reaches Mauna Kea. Alcoholic beverages available (not included in tour package), and must be consumed prior to landing. Working on "Kamaaina Rates", setting up for EBT cards, and foreign currency exchange on board. Have a great day all! Not even...JMO. RE: Naniloa Hotel to Become DoubleTree by Hilton - leilanidude - 05-15-2015 I thought all of the Banyan Drive area was a sacred site? Where are the protestors? RE: Naniloa Hotel to Become DoubleTree by Hilton - DTisme - 05-15-2015 Best thing about Doubletree hotels? You get a yummy (and hot) chocolate chip cookie when you check in. RE: Naniloa Hotel to Become DoubleTree by Hilton - Guest - 05-15-2015 Reality is that 16 million to go towards renovations and the golf course sounds great. Tourists and locals alike will hopefully spend more time and money in that banyan drive area with these much needed renovations. Maybe this would be a good time to clean the area of rubbish, maybe lesson the drug activities, thugs, thieves, and popular homeless sleeping? The entire bay needs a serious cleansing or dredging as well, the actual visibility under the water is down right bad or scary at times when diving. Also The increasing air traffic above really takes away from the peaceful and majestic looking area, not that much could be done about it though.

There has been considerable clean up the past 3 years. Your description is what it degenerated to under Harry Kim. Harry might be a nice guy but his whole view is do nothing and let it go. You can go to Moku Ola now and see honu many feet under water, it is that clear. The police in Hilo are putting more effort in telling transients they can't loiter and advise them to move along, mostly toward the Wailuku. There are still a couple condos that were once hotels that are really rough, probably mostly Section 8. The Hilo Hawaiian hotel Friday and Saturday buffets are always packed, many locals and family groups having a good time. In the evenings, there are a lot more people strolling. Good gravy, get out of that hole you are in and see what real Hawaii is like. "Aloha also means goodbye. Aloha!" |
