November 2007
Dear Club Member,
As you know, earlier this year Diamond Resorts International acquired Sunterra. One of the many exciting initiatives that we are working on is the enhancement of your membership through the re-branding of the old Sunterra brand into a true hospitality brand - Diamond Resorts International - which is built upon the basic principles of simplic*ity, choice and comfort. We intend to make your vacation experiences less complicated, offer you more options and ensure that we take care of you in a s!\'le of sophisticated elegance and comfort.
An initial focus for Diamond Resorts International is to unify our European Club with our North American Club with the goal of providing you with the flexibility and choice you deserve. As a member of THE Club"', which is the new name for the old Club Sunterra, you will begin to experience a more accessible Club product enabling you to plan your vacations with little effort and to enjoy every vacation moment without the complications and stress generally associated with planning vacations and holidays.
Recently, Polo Towers Suites and Polo Towers Villas were added as the newest affiliates to THE Club. Located in the heart of the "Strip," Both the Suites and Villas provide guests with a choice of luxurious accommodations, resort-style amenities, and easy access to world-class casinos, spas, entertainment and attractions, and is within easy walking distance to some of the most incredible mega-resorts in the world.
Later this year, the Broome Park Mansion House apartments will be available for reservations. Built between 1635 and 1638, Broome Park is located midway between Canterbury and Dover, among the gardens of Kent. This ever-popular UK destination features a Grade I-listed hall with elegant Jacobean-style architecture. Imagine your next vacation with THE Club in an English country house ... simply magnificent.
In addition, in an effort to streamline and improve the overall quality of our resort portfolio, we will be removing Carlton Court in London from the Club Sunterra Trust and European Resort Collection. Members have demonstrated that this location was not as popular as was first thought and, as a result, we will remove it from our portfolio and focus on more suitable locations - great locations that you tell us you would like to see.
We have extended the redemption dates for the 2008 Member Benefits for our Elite members, as well as the maximum redemption amount. Elite members may exchange up to their annual allotment or 50,000 per year, whichever is less, for any combination of benefits (specific programs may have lower maximum redemption values). The FeeOption dates for 2008 will be available from November 1,2007 to January 31, 2008. All other benefits including MileOptions, CruiseOptions, AirOptions and TravelOptions will be available as follows:
Standard Members 1/1/08 - 3/31/08
Silver Elite 1/1/08 - 5/31/08
Gold Elite 1/1/08 - 7/31/08
Platinum Elite 1/1/08 - 9/30/0S
Your 2008 Club Membership Fee invoice of $155.00 is enclosed. If you have any questions, please contact us at S77.Club.Sun (877.258.2786) or e-mail us at BilIingHelp@sunterra.com and one of our Counselors will be happy to assist you.
On behalf of all of us at THE Club, thank you for your continued membership and commitment to quality family vacations.
Sincerely,
Monica Sedeno
Vice President, THE Club
