The purchase of a proportion (minimum 1/13th) of a hotel room in a soon to be developed luxury boutique 5* hotel in the Ponta do Pargo Resort in western Madeira.
£6,750 all-inclusive entry price. All-inclusive means that all set-up costs and legal fees are included in this price.
The total price is £17,914*, including the initial payment. The remainder is divided into 5 affordable stage payments of €2,590 (£2,233*) between exchange of contracts and completion of the hotel (April 2012).
* based on an exchange rate of £1 = €1.16
A yield in excess of 12.4% is estimated, based upon an occupancy level of 66.5%.
Once the hotel opens, investors start earning rental income from their room at the rate of 50% of the revenue generated during their 28 night allocated period e.g. based on revenue of €250, the investor would receive €125. The remainder goes towards the upkeep and running of the hotel. This is a fully-managed investment and the investor has the peace of mind that they will not receive any additional on-going charges. Service charges, maintenance fees and all repairs/renewals are for the account of the Hotel Management Company.
When the hotel is sold, investors will receive a percentage return from the sale proceeds of the whole hotel.
Each of the 68 hotel rooms is divided into 13 investment units with a total of 28 nights' room rental income allocated to each unit.
The 28 nights are divided into 7 nights in each quarter.
The 28 nights are rotated in each quarter every year to ensure investors receive rental income at different times in each quarter.
Investors have the option to stay in their room for 7 of their allocated nights a year for just the price of a small administration fee of 5 euros per night. For instance, the investor is allocated the first week in each quarter in the first year, in the second year they will be allocated the second week in each quarter.

Opportunity to expand your portfolio, into the Hotel/Leisure and Commercial sectors.
This investment is asset backed. The land was acquired for the development of this project in 2008 and underpins the value of the company - and therefore your investment.
The land was acquired prior to further increases in land and commercial property in 2008/9.
Against a backdrop of falling prices Madeira produced outstanding gains in 2008/9, in part due to the Government zoning a high percentage of the island as green.
If the development is not started then the investors are assured of a full refund of all investment monies.
No limit is placed on the number of units you can buy. Many investors acquire multiple units - they determine the correct for their investment portfolio which is right for them.
According to The Sunday Times Travel Magazine, Madeira is "the perfect island for a fashionable short break".
Statistics for hotels in Madeira were impressive for 2008 - the number of hotel guests went up by 4.8% and nights spent in hotel accommodation by 3.6%. In Calheta, the number of nights spent in hotels grew by over 10%.
The Madeiran hotel industry places great emphasis on high-end establishments. All new hotels built on the island must be at least 4-star and most 3-star hotels are being upgraded.
Mirroring the island's booming tourism sector, Madeira's hotel industry is buoyant and demand is high. Annual occupancy on this year-round holiday destination is good with average room rates at approximately €250 a night, reflecting the fact that hotels are predominantly high-end.
In the region of Calheta, where the Ponta do Pargo resort is situated, there are currently just three hotels, all 4-star. The Ponta do Pargo Resort will be the only 5-star hotel in this area.
Madeira is a well-established port of call for cruise liners - 10 dock at Funchal daily in high season.
