Lifestyle Holidays Vacation Club, Dominican Republic, Breaks Ground for New Costa Esmeralda by Lifestyle Project

Austrian architect Sepp Frank is designing 130 Penthouse Suites for rental and purchase on the peninsula and the entire planned project will be developed in three phases over the next several years, with Phase I's expected completion date to be late 2010. The peninsula site recently hosted a U2 tribute band, U2 Hollywood, concert for Lifestyle Holidays members and guests with a record 2,500 people in attendance, followed by fireworks on the property as part of its ongoing ground breaking celebration.

“We are thrilled to add this beautiful area and spectacular new penthouses to our growing and expanding vacation club offering,” said Anja Wischembart, General Manager of Lifestyle Holidays Vacation Club. “The vision of the architect is to create an indoor and outdoor space that takes advantage of this dramatic location and views, while providing more choices for our members during their vacations with us.” The Costa Esmeralda by Lifestyle project plans include a signature seafood restaurant and a Club that will offer a dramatic and relaxing atmosphere with cascading waterfalls and tranquil pools overlooking the ocean cliffs, and a convention/retreat center that focuses on creativity inspired by this location.

The Lifestyle Holidays Vacation Club Resort encompasses four distinct products: The Tropical, The Crown Suites, The Crown Villas and The Residence Suites. From hotel accommodations to stand alone villas, all guests have access to six distinct restaurants, five swimming pools, nightly entertainment, spa, beach, tennis and more. Lifestyle Holidays Vacation Club VIP Members have access to a members only restaurant, bar, swimming pool, exclusive beach area, as well as golf carts, limousine transfers and helicopter tours.
