                 NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENT
                         JUNE 30, 1998
                          (Unaudited)

NOTE 1 - BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in
accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and therefore do
not include all disclosures necessary for a fair presentation of
the Partnerships' financial position, results of operations and
cash flows in conformity with generally accepted accounting
principles, as set forth in the Partnerships' Form 10-K for the
period ended December 31, 1997.  In management's opinion, all
adjustments have been made to the financial statements necessary
for a fair presentation of interim periods presented.


NOTE 2 - RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

During the six month period ended June 30, 1998, and June 30,
1997, the Partnership paid $3,886 and $2,321 in Management Fees
to Mariner Capital Management, Inc., the Managing General
Partner, in accordance with the Partnership Agreement.  These
expenses are included in the property expenses.  The General
Partners and their affiliates are also entitled to reimbursement
of costs (including amounts of any salaries paid to employees or
its affiliates) directly attributable to the operation of the
Partnership that could have been provided by independent parties. 
Costs amounting to $0 were incurred during the second quarter of
1998.  This compares to $6,450 of costs that were incurred during
the second quarter of 1997.


NOTE 3 - BALANCE SHEET

The Balance Sheet at December 31, 1997, has been taken from the
Audited Financial Statements at that date.


NOTE 4- MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Liquidity

The Partnership's cash position including interest bearing
deposits at June 30, 1998, was $50,486.  This compares to its
cash position of $101,791 at December 31, 1997.  At June 30,
1997, the Partnership's cash position was $126,457.


PAGE 6<PAGE>
<PAGE>

Liquidity - Continued

The decrease in cash from December 31, 1997, to June 30, 1998,
was primarily due to the following factors.  Cash provided by
operations was $6,877, payments for property improvements were
$1,817, principal pay downs of debt totalled $14,201.  Partner
distributions totalled $42,164.  The Partnership's total
investment in properties for its portfolio at June 30, 1998, was
$3,846,532.  This compares to its total property investment at
December 31, 1997 of $3,844,715.  

The management company, South Seas Resorts Company (SSRC), an
affiliate of the general partner signed an option agreement to
acquire the Seaside Inn on or before January 1997, at a price of
$6,485,000. This price assumed renovations of $335,000 of which
$330,000 has been funded to date. Since the transaction was
between affiliated companies, the general partner was required to
seek approval from the limited partners of (1) the option terms
and (2) an amendment of the partnership agreement to permit the
sale to an affiliate. That approval was solicited in August 1996.
Once approved the transaction still represented an option,
however SSRC closed on the purchase of this property in January
1997 as reported in an 8-K filed January 15, 1997.  The sale
generated approximately $2,725,000 which was available for
distribution to the partners.

The Partnership sold the Villas Plaza to an unrelated purchaser
on March 20, 1997 at a price of $1,900,000 as reported in an 8-K
filed on April 2, 1997.  The sale generated approximately
$620,000 which was available for distribution to the partners.

The Partnership sold Corporate Office Park to an unrelated
purchaser on October 1, 1997 at a price of $750,000 as reported
in an 8-K filed October 1, 1997.  The sale generated
approximately $395,000 which was distributed to the partners.

The sale of Seaside Inn, the Villas Plaza and Corporate Park
resulted in a material reduction in both partnership assets,
partnership debt and partnership liquidity.

Other than as discussed herein, there are no known trends,
demands, commitments, events or uncertainties that in
management's opinion, will result or are reasonably likely to
result in the registrant's liquidity increasing or decreasing in
any material way.

Capital Resources

The Partnerships outstanding debt as of June 30, 1998 was
$1,636,345.  This compares to debt outstanding December 31, 1997
of $1,650,546.  The Partnership had $1,941,821 of outstanding
debt at June 30, 1997.

Results of Operations

The Partnership's net loss for the six months ended June 30,
1998, was $40,198.  This compares with net income of $3,873,157
for the same period a year ago.  

The major variances from a year ago are due primarily to the sale
of the three properties referenced above.

For the six month period ended June 30, 1998, total revenue
decreased by $8,548,403 as compared to the same period one year
ago.  This decrease was primarily attributable to the property
sales.

Edison Square's revenue decreased mainly due to a decrease in
occupancy.  At June 30, 1998, Edison Square was 86% occupied.

For the six months ended June 30, 1998, depreciation expense has
decreased by $39,158.  

Property expenses decreased $89,684 for the six month period
primarily because of the sales of the three properties.

For the six months, interest expense has decreased $43,931 mainly
due to a decrease in the amount of outstanding debt.

The Partnership indebtedness decreased by $305,476 from the time
period June 30, 1997, to June 30, 1998.  As of June 30, 1998, the
Partnership had an outstanding debt of $1,636,345 compared to
$1,941,821 at June 30, 1997.  The Partnership's outstanding debt
as of December 31, 1997, was $1,650,546.  

Property and equipment has decreased from $4,848,009 at June 30,
1997, to $3,846,532 at June 30, 1998.  Property and equipment was
$3,844,715 as of December 31, 1997.

For the quarter ended June 30, 1998, the cash distribution to
partners totalled $22,128.  Distributions for the six month
period totalled $42,164.
