COOL TRADE WIND TEMPERATURES

NEWPORT, RI - May 2011 - Will the sun and stars around Ibiza be too hot and heavy on the pocketbook this summer? Then think St. Barts where everything that’s laid out for the stars, plus cool trade wind temperatures, become more affordable, thanks to the Caribbean’s premier luxury villa rental company, Wimco Villas.

New this summer and fall are a range of promotional programs for Wimco’s collection of villas, including 96-hour “Villa of the Week” private flash sales offering up to 50 percent off a week’s rental, and their “Summer of Savings” program offering free nights, complimentary rental cars, and savings at some of St Barts finest restaurants with Wimco’s “Friend of the Island” card. These exclusive programs make St. Barts this season’s most affordable luxury destination, promises Stiles Bennet, Wimco Villas president.

“We’ve assembled an extensive list of private sales, special offers and value added programs,” says Bennet, underscoring that to get full access to these programs people need to contact Wimco at info@wimco.com
