Cabo San Lucas, Mexico (May 23, 2008) – The weekend of May 16-17 was greeted by ideal weather and an enthusiastic group of individuals and families who were in Cabo San Lucas for Hacienda’s Phase II Grand Opening Event. One of the industry’s most renowned development teams—The Koll Company, Starwood Capital and Del Mar Development—has come together to ensure that Hacienda is among the most impressive Resort Communities in Mexico. And this past weekend’s success was evidence that they aren’t the only ones who think so. Coupled with last year’s record-breaking Phase I release, Hacienda is rapidly approaching the $300 million plateau in total pre-construction sales—making it one of the most successful real estate projects in Mexico’s history.
Jerry Yahr, Managing Partner of The Koll Company commented, “We are very excited with the success of our Grand Opening. It’s gratifying to see so many who believe in our vision as much as we do. This is truly one of the most spectacular settings in the world, and we feel privileged to have the chance to create something so special here.”
IMI Resort Holdings, responsible for the sales and marketing of the project, has been pivotal in Hacienda’s success. “Cabo San Lucas has always been one of my favorite places because of its natural beauty, high energy atmosphere and its engaging people,” said IMI Principle Mike Collins. “Hacienda is creating a standard of living that embodies the magnificence and charm of this incredible region.”
Hacienda has a dream location in the heart of Cabo San Lucas that offers unsurpassed access to downtown, a world-class marina and a lifestyle reserved only for a select few. Private and gated, this ultra-exclusive village retreat is being realized amid mature palm groves on the site of one of Cabo San Lucas’s true originals, the Hacienda Hotel. Like its predecessor, Hacienda will enjoy the most sought after location in all of Cabo San Lucas, overlooking the Sea of Cortez with stunning views of the famous “El Arco” rock formation at Land’s End. The property also boasts a precedent-setting Beach Club and Spa and a quarter-mile of the most swimmable beach in all of Los Cabos.
Unlike the original hotel, Hacienda offers an unparalleled real estate opportunity that includes spacious Beachfront Villas and elegant Resort Residences—both of which promise sophisticated design and a lifestyle defined by luxurious comfort and carefree ownership. In order to take full advantage of the property’s beachfront location, Hacienda will feature a private beach club that is nothing less than incredible. For owners and guests, this is a beachfront retreat worthy of its awe-inspiring surroundings. A spectacular terraced pool will invite a refreshing plunge on multiple levels and infinity edges will blend seamlessly on the horizon with the Sea of Cortez, while private cabanas and the sound of soothing waterfalls calm the soul.
Owners and guests can look forward to Hacienda’s full-service Spa & Fitness Pavilion, which will offer a contemporary interpretation of age-old treatments, techniques and regimens—all enveloped by a natural aura of energy and renewal. Additional amenities include gourmet dining, a seaside lounge, private beach enclaves, and a full complement of Concierge and Property Management Services provided by the legendary Del Mar Management.
The celebrated team of developers responsible for this extraordinary new village resort community has a proven track record of success in the region: The Koll Company, Starwood Capital and Del Mar Development.
Founded by Donald Koll in 1962 and headquartered in Newport Beach, California, The Koll Company is best known in Los Cabos for two of its crown jewels: the highly acclaimed Palmilla and spectacular Cabo del Sol.
Del Mar Development is the visionary enterprise that created Villas Del Mar, widely recognized as Los Cabos finest residential community.
Starwood Capital Group Global, LLC, is widely acclaimed within the resort, leisure and residential industries. The company and its principals were responsible for the creation of Starwood Hotels & Resorts Worldwide, Inc., the development of over 12,000 homesites and residences, and are currently investors in the largest golf course ownership and management business in the US.
