INTERVAL INTERNATIONAL AND CLUB TESORO RESORTS
ENTER INTO LONG-TERM, MULTI-SITE AFFILIATION AGREEMENT
Miami, FL, August 30, 2011 – Interval International, a prominent worldwide provider of vacation services and an operating business of Interval Leisure Group (Nasdaq:IILG), and Club Tesoro Resorts, today announced they have entered into a long-term, multi-site affiliation agreement. This encompasses Club Tesoro in Cabo San Lucas, Mexico, as well as future acquired properties. The Cabo resort is owned by subsidiaries of Steadfast Companies, a private real estate investment firm.
“Steadfast is well-regarded, with more than 15 years of experience in resort, multifamily, and commercial development. We are pleased to collaborate with them and welcome Club Tesoro to our Quality Vacation Exchange Network," said David Gilbert, Interval’s executive vice president of resort sales and marketing. “Our members can now enjoy another vacation opportunity in this very desirable destination, with its varied recreational attractions.”
“We provide exceptional service in spectacular settings, so that our guests can spend quality time with family and friends and create lasting memories. Our relationship with Interval allows us to offer club members valuable leisure benefits, including the ability to exchange their vacations for resorts around the world,” said Jeff Healy, managing director of Club Tesoro Resorts.
Situated at the world-renowned marina, Club Tesoro in Cabo San Lucas is minutes away from excellent dining, shopping, and entertainment. The resort features newly decorated club suites in a modern, contemporary design with luxury beds, and flat screen TVs. Onsite amenities and services are a swimming pool, spa, fitness center, and several restaurants, such as the recently opened Agave Azul restaurant and bar on the marina’s boardwalk.
Los Cabos’ location at the southernmost tip of Baja California Sur gives visitors the opportunity to experience its distinctive landscape. The 20-mile tourist corridor between Cabo San Lucas and San Jose del Cabo has spectacular vistas of golden sand beaches, coves, and the cobalt waters of the Sea of Cortez. Another natural attraction is the annual whale migration from December to March when thousands of whales and their newborn calves can be viewed and photographed from shore. Los Cabos is also home to numerous golf championships that draw top professional players and world-class fishing tournaments that attract some of the best Marlin fishermen each fall.
