01/17/2012

Orlando, Fla. – January 17, 2012 – Designating February its Friends Learn Free Month, The Academy of Golf at The Villas of Grand Cypress is launching a special “Buy One, Get One Golf School” to encourage students to bring a friend along to take lessons at no charge.

“Attending a golf school with a friend is the best way for people to learn,” says award-winning golf instructor Fred Griffin, Director of The Grand Cypress Academy of Golf and one of GOLF Magazine’s Top 100 Instructors in America. “There is a special motivation and several advantages that apply. Friends tend to ‘speak the same language,’ which is great for the whole learning process.”

The Buy One, Get One Package is also great for friends who are willing to share costs for a choice of taking a 1-Day, 2-Day, or 3-Day Golf School together – for a savings of up to $2,500.

The special offer applies to all the golf schools offered at The Academy and runs through Feb. 29, with a minimum one-night stay required at Villas of Grand Cypress. Only shared accommodations are available.

Reservations now being accepted online or by calling (407) 239-1955.

About the Personal Luxury Resorts & Hotels (SM)

The Personal Luxury Resorts & Hotels(SM) concept was founded on the premise that personal luxury means different things to different people. It's now more personal than ever. The distinct destinations of the Personal Luxury Resorts & Hotels(SM) are known for their individual attentions, chef-driven cuisine, and what our guests will define as pleasure, comfort, happiness, taste and escapism.

A redefining of the perspective from property focused to guest focused. Where we open the door so the guest can choose transformation over accommodation, customization over conformity, and inspiration over vacation. It is the answer to a craving of guests who want to feel special again. What a departure from the past!

In order to catapult the mark to the modern age, the new Personal Luxury Resorts & Hotels(SM) logo is presented with a dramatic crescent forming the shadow of the keyhole. Further, the crescent, placed to the right of the keyhole and in combination with the keyhole, also represents a stylized "P" – the initial letter of the Personal Luxury Resorts & Hotels(SM), depicting the increasingly archaic concept of personal attention, revived and delivered.
