The Registry Collection® exchange programme is pleased to announce that Les Maisons de Baumanière en Provence, one of its newest affiliates, has won the Fractional Life Summit Award for Innovation and Excellence.

Avenio Prieuré, a luxury resort development company, joined with the Les Maisons de Baumanière hotel portfolio in France to develop three fractional properties in Avignon, Gordes and Aix-en-Provence.

Nick Turner, VP and head of new business development, The Registry Collection, said of the award: “We are very proud to be associated with Les Maisons de Baumanière en Provence. The developments meet all the criteria for a very successful fractional project – prime locations, spacious, five-star category accommodations and, with the company’s affiliation to The Registry Collection, concierge services, leisure property exchange options in developments of commensurate quality worldwide from our growing property portfolio and many more exclusive membership benefits to offer purchasers.

“We congratulate developers, Marc Koerts and André Guillot, together with their partner, Jean-André Charial, on their deserved success in the Fractional Life 2009 Innovation and Excellence Awards.”

Piers Brown, founder of Fractional Life, said: “We were very pleased with the high volume of entrants to the newly-launched Fractional Life 2009 Awards. Les Maisons de Baumanière en Provence, the new luxury brand and its exclusive properties offering many superb amenities on site, including a boutique hotel and the L’Occitane en Provence spa experience, is indeed, a worthy winner of our Innovation and Excellence Award.

“As the first winner of what we hope will be many Fractional Life Summit Awards, Les Maisons de Baumanière en Provence should certainly provide inspiration for others.”

A second associate of The Registry Collection – the Pezula Private Residence Club in Knysna, South Africa – received a Highly Commended award in the same category, which was collected by Brett Archibald, senior vice president, The Registry Collection, on behalf of the developer.

This year’s summit was held on 23rd and 24th April at The Hilton Metropole Hotel in London and was a sell out success, providing an indication of the high level of interest in the fractional property market.
