Description

Elvis Presley stayed in Bungalow 56 at the Coco Palms Hotel while filming scenes from Blue Hawaii on the resort grounds. This is what the cottage looks like today, standing in ruins, waiting for the property owners to restore it and the entire hotel facility. Check the rest of my Elvis related images too.

The Coco Palms Resort opened in Wailua on Kauai, Hawaii on January 25, 1953. Scenes from Elvis Presley's movie Blue Hawaii were filmed there. Frank Sinatra and Bing Crosby are among the Hollywood elite that helped make the place famous.

Hurricane Iniki decimated the entire facility in 1992. The Resort had since remained closed and falling into repair. Now it is under re-construction, to open as the original resort but run by Hyatt in 2017.

Beautiful capture

Love a window with a story -- (as opposed to simply a window on one story of a building) -- and THIS is an intriguing story with a caltuvating picture to go with. :) Beautiful photograph, Mary! L

Aw..too bad they let it go. Nice capture...v.f.

Mary Deal replied:

Thanks, Kay. I am sure this entire facility will be remodeled, but not holding my breath. In the meantime, I've found much beauty in the aging of the buildings and overgrowth of the greenery. Still, would love to see the place brought back to life.
