Koopa's Seaside Soiree

Koopa's Seaside Soiree (known as Koopa's Seaside Soirée in the European versions) is a board map hosted by Koopa in Mario Party 4.
==Board description==
Koopa's Seaside Soiree is an island resort that is controlled by Koopa. The board takes place on a tropical island and contains a serene atmosphere for guests to enjoy. Located around the island are small beaches, palm trees, and fruits. The island is also surrounded by a clear blue body of water. The main feature of the board is Koopa's Kabana (a resort hotel) located at the center of the board. Every time a player passes one of the Koopa spaces located near the Kabana, Koopa will charge the player five coins, which is invested into the Kabana. The Kabana initially starts off as an ordinary hut. However, as the players invest more coins into it, the Kabana will eventually become a five star hotel. There are numerous happening spaces located around the Kabana. When a player lands on one of these happening spaces, the player is forced to trade a number of coins for a one-week stay. The number of coins (along with the player's stay) is dependent with the number of coins invested. Then the Koopa tells the player to enjoy their stay. Afterwards, the Kabana gets destroyed by a tidal wave. Then a construction of the Kabana begins from scratch.
At the far corners of the board, there are special junctions that contain a palm tree with a Ukiki in it. When a player arrives at this junction, Ukiki will throw a banana down in the center of it, which will ultimately choose the path the player must take. There are also small docks located around the board with different fruits painted on them. When a player lands on one of these docks, Dolphins take them for a ride on their backs and ferry them to the next dock that contains the same fruit. Landing on specific docks will cause the player to earn extra coins while riding the Dolphin.
===Notable Characters and events===
* Koopa's Kabana - At the center of the board, there is a giant square-structure with a lone Koopa standing in front of it, which will house the Kabana. There are small spaces depicting a Koopa near the Kabana site. Whenever a player passes these spaces, Koopa will automatically charge the player five coins for the investment into the Kabana. The Kabana initially starts off as a hut, however, as the players invest more coins into the Kabana, then it will grow into a five star hotel. It becomes a hut (for 5 coins), then a shabby build (for 15 coins), then a better build (for 30 coins), a resort hotel (for 45 coins), and finally a 5-star hotel (for 60 coins). 
* Ukiki's Banana Junction - On the east and west side of the board, there are two junctions that are guarded by Ukiki in a palm tree. When a player arrives at the junction, a Ukiki will throw a banana in the center of the path. The player will trip the player, causing them to randomly fall onto a different path they might not be their original choice. If the player is wearing the rare Bowser Suit, then they are able to choose the direction they can go.
===? Spaces===
* Tidal Wave - The Koopa Kabana is a hotel. When a player lands on one the many happening spaces surrounding Koopa's Kabana, they are forced to trade coins for a one week stay. The stay is dependent with the number of coins invested. Then the Koopa tells the player to enjoy their stay. However, when the player gets their stay at the hotel, the tidal wave appears and destroy the Kabana. The Kabana then starts over from scratch until the next tidal wave hits it.
* Dolphins - There are numerous docks located around the board that contain different fruits painted on them. When a player lands on the happening space in front of the dock, a Dolphin will appear and give the player a ride to the dock of the corresponding fruit. Certain docks will reward characters with extra coins when they land on them.
