Polynesian Village was located in the Hotel Somerset and operated for twenty years, from 1948 to 1968. Then it was bought by Bobby Seto, moved to a new location, and was rechristened Aku-Aku.

The Somerset's sister hotel in Chicago, the Edgewater Beach Hotel, also had a Polynesian Village.

The Hotel Somerset was converted to condominiums in the 1980s, but from the outside it still doesn’t look much different from when it was built in 1897.
