It’s V.I.P All The Way At Lifestyle Holidays Vacation Club
May 19, 2011Lavish Welcome Parties, Luxury Accommodations, Gourmet Restaurants, Themed Bars, V.I.P Beaches, Celebrity-Style Transportation Say It’s All About Members
From the moment members set foot onto Lifestyle Holidays Vacation Club in Puerto Plata on the beautiful North Coast of the Dominican Republic, they know they are very important people and are living the V.I.P dream. LHVC has refined the V.I.P treatment to an artform so that what members see, taste, experience, and how they are treated leaves a lasting impression. It is truly unlike anything they have ever experienced on vacation before, and is the secret to LHVC’s blooming success.
Lavish Welcome Parties and Specialized Celebrations
Weekly V.I.P parties for over a thousand people are just the beginning of each week at Lifestyle Holidays Vacation Club. The impressive staging and lighting, live entertainment, enormous spread of international foods with 23 food stations, personal service, and a fireworks display on the beach and under the stars can only be found at LHVC. It’s Lifestyle’s own signature way of saying, “Welcome Home, You are Special and This is All About You.”
Specialty parties and “over the top” celebrations are also just a normal part of vacationing at LHVC. To help bring in the New Year for 2011, Lifestyle brought in “the world’s greatest 70s show band,” The Right On Band, to perform live for New Year’s Eve 2010. Having played for President Obama’s inauguration as well as for two other U.S. Presidents, introduced and accompanied by celebrities like George Lopez and Smokey Robinson, and having performed in Time Square, New York City for New Year’s Eve, The Right On Band made Lifestyle Holidays Vacation Club in Puerto Plata a very special place to be. The 10-piece band and its full horn section rocked the house with their Motown, Disco and Funk tunes, performing in their signature flamboyant 70s costumes and wigs for 3,000 members and their closest friends for two and a half hours.
“We were thrilled to have had such a high caliber band entertain our members and guests,” said Hans Larcher, Managing Director, Lifestyle Holidays Vacation Club. “We have already booked them again for New Year’s Eve 2011.”
More Luxury Accommodations
LHVC makes the same commitment to excellence when it comes to quality and variety of accommodations for its members and guests. Just a year after first offering its new Presidential Suites by Lifestyle on the Amber Coast of Cofresi Beach in Puerto Plata, in partnership with Spain-based Globalia Corporation, Lifestyle has now completed Phase II with the addition of four new buildings and 24 two-bedroom suites. Presidential Suites By Lifestyle Cofresi Beach features ultra-modern, one and two bedrooms, full kitchen, dining area plus living room with pull down Murphy Bed to accommodate eight people. Property amenities include the JAZZ French Fusion Restaurant and Bourbon Street Bar, and the new BLUES Las Vegas style buffet eatery situated in front of a large swimming pool with waterfall, hot tub, three professional tennis courts, wireless internet, private beach and access to all Lifestyle Holidays Vacation Resort facilities and amenities.
“We are delighted over the success and demand for this product,” said Larcher. “Our goal was to offer an upscale new concept to provide our members and guests with a totally new experience. Phase II of the Presidential Suites will allow us to continue delivering on that promise.”
LHVC’s variety of upscale accommodations offerings also encompasses the Lifestyle Holidays Vacation Resort with four distinct developments including The Tropical, The Crown Suites, The Crown Villas, and the Residence Suites; as well as Dream Suites By Lifestyle, also launched in 2010 in Costa Dorada, Puerto Plata and in Punta Cana.
Gourmet Restaurants and Themed Bars
Along with the growth and variety of upscale accommodations, comes a constant flow of new restaurants, new culinary concepts and brand new themed bars. LHVC just opened its 11th on-property restaurant, BLUES, featuring a high-end Las Vegas Style buffet for breakfast and lunch including international dishes from around the world and different specialty items daily on the grill such as blackened fresh grouper, gourmet burgers and fresh homemade pasta. An organic salad bar is also featured.
Other newly opened restaurants in the last year at LHVC include the JAZZ French Fusion restaurant with authentic Cajun and Creole menu items and signature dishes like Cajun Dusted Caribbean Sea Bass and NOLA Seafood Etoufée and the AZUL Gourmet restaurant on the third floor of the resort’s Member Services Building which demonstrates attention to every detail from silverware to wait staff uniforms, and operates to the equivalence of a Michelin Star Restaurant. Menu items include Filet Mignon with Bernaise Sauce and Lobster in lemon butter. The restaurant’s modern blue lighting and intimate atmosphere inspire its name, which means blue in Spanish.
These newest additions complement LHVC’s complete array of dining choices, which also include the Mexican, Italian, Asian Fusion, Seafood, buffet and Simply Gourmet restaurants located throughout the resort. The “white glove” Simply Gourmet is well known by members and guests for its elegant lighted menus, which provide easy reading and intimate lighting. There’s even a good oldfashioned ice cream shop called SCOOPS to provide custom, cool desserts.
LHVC’s new selection of 20 customized bars includes a rum bar, champagne bar, vodka, gin, brandy, whiskey, tequila and bourbon bars, and specialty bars such as a liqueur, wine, martini, and on tap beer bar, as well as coffee and drink dessert bars. Each themed bar features a fun name and ambiance with its own specialty drink menu. For example, Anja’s Lounge, a Brandy Bar, serves an Apple Sidecar, Beach Street Cooler and Summer Slush while Cosmopolitan’s Martini Bar serves Chocolate Martinis, Appletinis and Lemon Drops, and The Spot Vodka Bar features a French Kiss, Bay Breeze and Absolut Pleasure.
