Press Release Body: Miami, Florida - October 16, 2007 - Paradisus Resorts, the
leader in luxury all-inclusives, continues to innovate in its delivery of
distinctive guest services with two new technological concepts, firsts in Punta
Cana, Dominican Republic.

With today's guests seeking to stay in constant contact with friends, family or the
office, Paradisus Resorts has pioneered a cell phone and laptop rental program that
allows guests the flexibility to leave bulky laptops at home and avoid costly cell
phone roaming charges. The cell phone rental program includes free unlimited
incoming international calls, while phone cards are available for an additional cost
to make outgoing calls. Laptops will be capable of connecting to high-speed
Internet within the rooms and wireless Internet at select public spaces throughout
the resort. All rentals include full, onsite technical support available in three
languages - English, Spanish, and French. The program is based on a daily rental
rate at competitive prices.

For guests of Paradisus Resorts' adults-only Royal Service and Family Concierge
programs, the cell phone rental is complimentary throughout the duration of their
stay. Adults-only Royal Service guests have access to a personal butler and private
beach and pool areas with concierge services, and Royal Service suites; while the
Family Concierge service includes specially designed suites a private lounge area
and welcome amenity kit for kids.

For these guests, the cell phone provides the additional benefit of allowing them to
stay in touch with their Royal Service butler or family concierge, ensuring that
they are only a phone call away from reserving a Bali Bed, making golf or spa
reservations, or having a bubble bath prepared in their Jacuzzi.

"Our new cell phone and laptop rental program reflects the needs of today's
travelers, who more and more need hassle free ways of staying in touch with home or
office while on vacation," stated Susanna Mander, Director of Brand Management for
Paradisus Resorts. "This is yet another thoughtful detail that sets Paradisus apart.
The new service has proven especially popular with meetings and groups."

Recently launched in Paradisus Palma Real Resort, the service will be available at
Paradisus Punta Cana Resort in November.

Paradisus Resorts are located in some of the most spectacular and sought-after
beachfront destinations in the Caribbean and Mexico and include Paradisus Palma
