in Hawaii Affiliate for Marketing Boost
Marc Resorts Gains Sales Clout; Discover Resorts Gains Major Presence

SCOTTSDALE, ARIZ., April 3, 2003 - Marc Resorts Hawaii has entered into an
affiliation with Arizona-based Discover Resorts International.  Under this unique agreement, Discover Resorts will supplement the sales and marketing efforts of
Marc Resorts' condominium accommodations. Marc Resorts will remain directly responsible for its properties' management and operations. 

The affiliation marks Discover Resorts International's first major presence in Hawaii's hotel industry.  This leading resort rental management and marketing
company features high-quality rental homes and condominiums in Arizona, California, Colorado, Florida, Utah, Montana, the Caribbean and England.  The
agreement now adds 14 properties on five major Hawaiian Islands-represented by Marc Resorts-to Discover Resort International's inventory of properties. 

Discover Resorts International offers a blend of business drivers, including a central reservations sales office and an aggressive website, offering the latest in advanced technology with an instantaneous worldwide link to all properties in the Discover Resorts system.  This system will now include the 14 Marc Resorts properties. 

"This is a win-win situation for both Marc Resorts and Discover Resorts International," said Paul Tomonari, executive vice president of Marc Resorts. 

"Marc Resorts and its properties will now have an added channel of distribution to an established client base of vacation rental guests, so unused inventory can be
filled.  Discover Resorts International can now provide travelers to Hawaii with an array of attractive, affordable condominium accommodations." 

"Marc Resorts is a proven organization with formidable insight into the Hawaiian market, its specific needs and its tremendous potential," said Jim Kempski,
executive vice president of Discover Resorts International.  "This new agreement enables us to accommodate the immense demand for lodging in Hawaii by
partnering with a well established, reputable company.  Marc Resorts supplies the local know-how, Discover Resorts supplies an established client base-and
travelers to Hawaii come out ahead."
