Q-Industries Builds New Online Brand for “Grupo Mayan” Luxury Resorts

Website features collection of vacation clubs, hotels and properties for travelers

Washington, D.C. – July 9, 2008 – Grupo Mayan, one of the world’s largest hotel and vacation ownership companies, has launched the new website for its collection of luxury resorts. Q-Industries, which builds online brands and websites, created Grupo Mayan’s new online presence, which showcases the company’s collection of hotels, villas and condominiums throughout Mexico.

A pioneer in the vacation club concept, operating for over 30 years, Grupo Mayan’s resorts are situated on prime beachfront and exotic locations, offering vacationers a wide variety of amenities and ownership options. Q’s rebrand and design combines each of Grupo Mayan’s six different resort concepts in a single website, while maintaining separate and distinct identities for each of its Sea Garden, Mayan Palace, The Grand Mayan, Grand Luxxe, Mayan Island, and I.Q. Hotels brands.

Vacationers with diverse interests, from families with children to the tech-savvy traveler, can use the new website to choose amongst vacations based on style of resort, location, and property type. Included are details on Grupo Mayan’s world-class restaurants, golf, tennis, programs for children, and themed events.

“We’ve been building unique resorts since 1975, so it was important the new Grupo Mayan brand provide our company a unified identity, one that builds upon our heritage yet reflects the growing options we’re providing to vacationers,” said Michel Beuffe, COO, of Grupo Mayan. “Q-Industries has been instrumental in creating an onsite environment for people to find the optimal vacation experience throughout all of our properties,” Michel added.

Additional features of the website will include: an online reservation system for choosing flexible lengths of stay ranging from a week, month, or season, and accommodations – from rooms to master suites; photo galleries; and a content management system.
