Caribbean Development Partners, LLC (CDP) is a real estate development company which is focused on the resort sector in the Pan-Caribbean region. We are seeking well-capitalized investment partners to form joint venture or strategic partnership to fund the acquisition & development of one or more resort projects offering limited risk with the potential of significant financial returns over a five year period.
CDP was formed by (5) highly experienced professionals from diverse sectors of the real estate industry including global resort development, Caribbean economic development, commercial brokerage and architectural planning. Our managing partner, has had a distinguished 30 year career as a Institutional Fund Manager for Fixed Income and Real Estate. This unique collaboration of creative thinkers, real estate professionals & highly-respected business executives have collectively envisioned, planned, constructed and operated multi–billion dollar real estate assets for large public Companies and institutional pension funds.
During the past 3 years, members of the CDP management team have traveled throughout the Pan Caribbean region to evaluate various resort project opportunities, undertake in depth research, perform economic analysis and establish a extensive network of influential relationships with key government officials, tourism officials and business leaders.
CDP has already identified a number of fully-approved resort projects which have been made available to our team through our collective network throughout the region. In light of the current credit markets in the US, we have been offered premier land assets which can be acquired at prices well below appraised value, with the potential to produce extremely attractive yields.
CDP has long term relationships with global entertainment, lodging and retail brands and seek to engage in new resort developments in the Pan Caribbean region. The scope & range of CDP partner’s project development experience includes large scale resorts in Europe, Asia, Los Angeles and the $4 billion (USD) 800 acre Universal Studios in Orlando, Florida.

The Caribbean is a diverse, fragmented, and geographically large region with different cultures, languages, and political sovereignty
There are few high quality, integrated resort-type developments
There is a lack of comprehensive pan-Caribbean development with the intent of establishing a geographically diverse investment portfolio
The Baby Boomer population and Y generation are seeking lifestyle experiences that are offered by select destinations within the region
There are still extremely attractive sites available for development located in desirable settings with stable settings
Regional Trends
Page 10 of 30
Properties are in the hands of land-owners without access to adequate capital or expertise necessary to develop
Existing resorts have been mismanaged or poorly developed by non-professional developers
Proper utilization and development of the resorts has been the victim of weak economic cycles
Many resorts have been encumbered by government policy but CDP has made established influential relationships with government leaders, tourist officials and utility/infrastructure executives
Identifying Opportunities
Page 11 of 30
“Hotel performance in the Caribbean has improved steadily since the rebound in 2003 from the downturn of 2001 – a year earlier than most markets. The growth is expected to continue over the medium term, with travel and tourism expected to rise by 3.9% per annum between 2007 and 2016 (according to the World Travel & Tourism Commission).”
“The Caribbean has made progress in terms of regional stability and infrastructure, which has created an attractive destination for investment. Furthermore, the proliferation of renovations and the development of upper tier properties will continue to enhance the overall perception of the region, increase all-important airlift and boost average market rates.” – Source: Hotel Investment Outlook: Jones Lang LaSalle Hotels, 2007

Timeshare and Vacation Club
Timeshare sales will continue to grow: 27% of timeshare buyers are looking to
buy in the Caribbean (Interval International, Market Profile 2006)
Equal numbers of American and European investors are interested in purchasing vacation time during the next two years as those who currently own vacation time
Escalating cost of resort real estate makes both timeshares and longer fractional ownership interests look more attractive
Two-thirds of Interval International’s clients cite the Caribbean as their preferred international location (2006 U.S. Membership Profile)

Project Types: Eco & Cultural Tourism
Ecotourism is a nature based form of specialty travel defined by The International Ecotourism Society (TIES) as “responsible travel to natural areas which conserves the environment and sustains the well-being of local people.”
The World Resources Institute (1990) found that while tourism travel overall has been growing at an annual rate of 4%, nature travel is increasing at an annual rate between 10% and 30% (Reingold, 1993).
The Caribbean region offers exceptional diversity of land & sea based ecological nature parks, which attract incremental new & repeat visitation.
CDP partners are actively involved in planning $300M-$1B resort developments in Costa Rica focused on Eco Tourism.

Project Types: Marina-Oriented Projects
Mega yacht (100+ length) industry is multi-billion dollar sector of the marina industry
Mega yacht production exceeds available marina facilities in the Caribbean (Most current mega marinas are fully occupied & located in ‘Hurricane Belt’
The islands of Curacao, Bonaire & Aruba are south of the ‘Hurricane Belt’ and are considered the safest berths for mega yachts in the Caribbean
Mega yacht owners & cruise ships drive significant demand for lodging, retail, and residential development
CDP has identified prime waterfront sites for world-class mega yacht facilities for development

Project Types: Residential/Hotel Golf Resorts
Strategic alliances with the global leader in golf course development & management will deliver world-class golf destinations.
This would also provide opportunities for an international client base as well as including the PGA tour programs.
