Sea Pearl Beach is due for completion in October 2011 and will offer guests the longest natural white sand beach adjacent to crystal blue waters of the Bay of Bengal. A mixture of studios, one and two-bedroom units with sea views are planned and the resort is being built to eco-friendly specifications that incorporate the principles of "recycle, renew, reuse, reduce and rethink".
Joe Hickman, Interval International's Executive Director for Asia Pacific has stated "Bangladesh has a population of some 160 million and is visited by a large number of tourists from all over the world. Easily accessible by air and road, we believe Sea Pearl and its spectacular beachfront location will offer our members an appealing new holiday choice".
Anticipated amenities include a clubhouse, cinema, restaurants offering various cuisines, indoor and outdoor swimming pools, tennis courts and a health club. Facilities nearby include boat rentals, horseback riding and local restaurants. The beach is surrounded by hills running parallel to the sea for virtually the entire length and imposing cliffs, multi-coloured pagodas and Hindu temples are a natural attraction. Spectacular waterfalls, coral islands and tribal villages add to the appeal of the area.
"We are pioneering the timeshare concept in Bangladesh and want to provide high-quality exchanges," advised Aminul Haque, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Sea Pearl Beach Resort and Spa Ltd, Bengal Vacation Club's developer. "We decided to affiliate with Interval because we found its exchange and marketing programmes to be very effective and its quality network will complement our image. Their decision makers are very forthcoming and helpful, and we plan to affiliate our future resorts with Interval as well."
