SUPERCLUBS PLANS NEW ROOMS RESORT IN NEGRIL, JAMAICA, OPENING 2008

KINGSTON, JAMAICA, April 30, 2007 – SuperClubs is adding its second affiliate ROOMS resort in Jamaica, expanding its current holdings on the island to nine properties. The current property will be renamed in 2008, as ROOMS, on the beach, Negril.

Located on Negril’s famed seven-mile white sand beach, ROOMS will feature 70 rooms, a swimming pool and Jacuzzi, onsite restaurant and bar, a gym and a conference room. The three-acre property is within walking distance to the town of Negril and its restaurants and shops, and just one hour from Donald Sangster International Airport.

“Since launching our first ROOMS in Ocho Rios, we have been actively looking for additional opportunities to expand this affiliate brand,” said John Issa, executive chairman of SuperClubs. “The central tenet of ROOMS, is to broaden and deepen the island’s hospitality options by proving a convenient base for independent travelers looking for affordable getaways.”

The new ROOMS will operate on a Continental Plan and welcome singles, couples and families. The current renovation will include the addition of 24 rooms to the property, including family suites, plus a conference room. Sister resort, ROOMS, on the beach, Ocho Rios debuted in January 2005, and marked a departure from SuperClubs’ trademarked Super-Inclusive resorts.

“In more than 30 years of actively growing the Caribbean tourism industry, SuperClubs has come a long way, and we’re not about to slow down!” Issa added. “We started humbly enough with a single resort in 1976 when I launched Jamaica’s first all-inclusive, triggering the all-inclusives boom throughout the island. Since then, we’ve diversified by extending our resort offerings to the Bahamas, Curaçao, Dominican Republic, Brazil and Panama, and we’ve also expanded beyond the all-inclusive, with ROOMS Resorts.”

Guests at ROOMS enjoy continental breakfast each day with their booking, and the on-site restaurant will also offer a la carte menus for lunch and dinner. The resort will be marketed as an affiliate brand to SuperClubs, similar to Starfish Resorts, currently operating in Jamaica and set to premier in Brazil later this year.
