INTERVAL INTERNATIONAL AFFILIATES PLAYA DEL SOL LOS CABOS IN MEXICO
Miami, FL, April 14, 2006 — Interval International, a leading global vacation exchange company, announced the affiliation of Playa Del Sol Los Cabos, a vacation-ownership resort located west of San José del Cabo at the southern tip of the Baja California peninsula.
"Los Cabos is regarded as a top tier Mexican tourist destination owing to its unique location on the spectacular waters of the Gulf of California and its stunning coastline. The 20-mile corridor connecting Cabo San Lucas and San Jose del Cabo attracts sophisticated, international tourists with a substantial disposable income," said Marcos Agostini, Interval International's regional director, resort sales and service for Latin America. "With the affiliation of Playa del Sol Los Cabos, our members will be able to enjoy the natural attributes and diverse vacation experiences this destination has to offer."
"We are pleased to affiliate our newest resort with Interval International. This property marks the first incursion of our group outside of Puerto Vallarta," said Antonio Moreno Osorio, president of the Playa del Sol Group. "Our plans for the future are to continue provide our owners with spacious, family-style accommodations with excellent personalized service in alternative Mexican beach destinations."
Playa Del Sol Los Cabos is set on Costa Azul Beach, a 10-mile stretch of white sand bordering the blue waters of the Sea of Cortez. The resort, which features modern amenities amidst an old-world Mexican ambiance, currently has 30 units and an additional 78 units are in the planning stage for phase one.
Guests can enjoy onsite amenities such as restaurants, gym, spa, sauna, whirlpool, and swimming pool. Additional activities such as shopping, hiking and biking, numerous championship-level golf courses, deep-sea fishing, ecological sanctuary or whale-watching tours, visits to a fresh water estuary - the only one of its kind in the state, are available near the resort.
The resort provides an ideal setting for visitors to enjoy sun, sand, and surf, in a tranquil atmosphere away from crowds and congestion, just minutes from downtown San José del Cabo. The village of San José del Cabo is a colonial and historic town that preserves all of the charm of Mexico's traditional villages and also offers a wide variety of casual and upscale dining options, exciting nightlife and stylish shops.
Los Cabos has a unique landscape created by the contrast between desert mountains, blue sea, and golden beaches. It is recognized worldwide as a destination for marlin sports fishing and ideal for such water sports as diving and snorkeling, as fish species teem in bay waters.
