Laie Inn closes; replacement planned near BYU-H, PCC
LAIE, Hawaii — The 45-year-old Laie Inn, adjacent to BYU-Hawaii and the Polynesian Cultural Center, closed for business Sunday and will be demolished to make room for a new development.
Current plans call for a total redevelopment of the antiquated inn, according to Hawaii Reserves, Inc., the management arm of the LDS Church, which owns the inn.
Hawaii Reserves Web site says plans to build a new hotel will "provide an affordable, convenient place to stay for those planning a multi-day visit to the Polynesian Cultural Center, and it will also fill a standing community need -- serving visiting families of Brigham Young University-Hawaii students and patrons of the nearby LDS Temple."
