Business Wire
American Leisure Holdings, Inc. (OTCBB:AMLH), an integrated travel
services distribution and travel destination development company,
announced today the acquisition of more than 90% of its stock by
American Leisure Group, Ltd. (�ALG�), a B.V.I. incorporated
company. The acquisition and subsequent IPO on AIM by ALG will fund
multiple developments including the Tierra del Sol Resort in
Orlando, Florida. On Monday, August 13, American Leisure Group,
Ltd., a company incorporated in the British Virgin Islands, was
admitted to the AIM, the market owned and operated by the London
Stock Exchange plc. A placing of ALG�s Ordinary Shares has raised
75,000,000 GBP (Approximately $150,000,000 U.S. dollars) before
expenses. Of that amount, U.S. $44,000,000 has been earmarked for
the development of amenities at the Sonesta Orlando Resort at
Tierra del Sol which is American Leisure�s flagship resort property
near Walt Disney World. The Sonesta Tierra del Sol Resort, when
completed, will be a 121-acre vacation home resort community.
Currently under construction, the development will offer luxury
town homes and condominiums. The initial planned amenities at
Tierra del Sol include: Expansive 84,000 gross square foot
clubhouse with romantic porticos and rich d�cor One of Florida�s
largest resort water complexes featuring a wave pool, Flowrider
surfing pool, lazy river, swimming pools, water slides, secluded
spas and a three-story children�s water park Full-service spa and
salon State-of-the-art fitness center First-class reception and
concierge services Ample meeting and wedding banquet facilities
Convenient market delicatessen Multiple themed restaurants &
lounges 28,000 square foot poolside sports bar featuring multiple
TV monitors with satellite feed for worldwide sporting events
Children�s recreation club and play area Sand volleyball courts
Elegant European-influenced gardens with walking and biking paths
Staff recreation coordinator, organizing events for owners,
children and guests In January 2005 AMLH signed a twenty year
management and brand affiliation agreement with Sonesta, which is
contracted to operate �qualifying units� at the resort at Tierra
del Sol. For over sixty years, Sonesta has owned, managed,
designed, built and marketed hotels in the United States and
elsewhere, building an excellent reputation in the hospitality
management market. The affiliation with Sonesta is an example of
ALG�s strategy of ensuring that the management of the resort will
be of a high quality and to maximize room occupancy for the resorts
�qualifying unit� owners. Malcolm Wright, Chief Executive Officer
of AMLH said, �The additional funds to be provided by ALG to AMLH
will enable us to accelerate the construction and delivery of the
amenities at Sonesta Orlando Resort at Tierra del Sol and open the
resort in the Spring of 2008. With consolidated shareholders�
equity in ALG of over U.S. $150,000,000, we believe that the group
will be able to save significantly on interest rates paid on its
credit lines and accelerate the construction of its pre-sold units.
By providing one of the largest amenity packages in Central Florida
designed exclusively for family vacations and with Sonesta as the
resort�s operator, we believe that new sales to be made in the
forthcoming season will be substantial. Now that the resort�s first
units are close to completion, clients can finally see for
themselves why vacationing families in Central Florida will choose
to stay at our resort rather than renting two or three rooms from a
typical Orlando hotel. We will finally deliver the true `home away
from home' concept to the Orlando marketplace where families can
relax and have a wonderful family vacation.� Forward Looking
