What Timbers Company does

Timbers Company is a privately held luxury hospitality and real estate development firm founded in 1999 and headquartered in Winter Park, Florida. The company develops, owns, and operates boutique luxury resorts, private residence clubs, and hotels across more than 16 global destinations including Aspen, Vail, Kaua'i, Kiawah Island, Jupiter, Tuscany, Cabo San Lucas, and the U.S. Virgin Islands. It operates through multiple sub-brands: Timbers Resorts (resorts and private residence clubs), Soleil Hotels & Resorts (curated hotels and residences), Andiamo (luxury rental program), and Master Planned Resorts, plus a wholly owned operating subsidiary Timbers Resort Management, LLC.

The company is vertically integrated, offering ground-up development, value-add redevelopment, rebranding/repositioning, hospitality operations management, asset management, luxury rental management, investment advisory, and portfolio management. Revenue is generated across four primary streams: property sales (whole-ownership residences priced $2.59M-$9.75M, fractional interests from $355K), nightly luxury vacation rentals ($1,500-$6,500/night), recurring hospitality management fees, and professional investment advisory services for institutional investors (involvement in over $2.5B in real estate acquisitions/dispositions and $500M in debt investments). Operational performance metrics include a 91 NPS at private residence club properties (vs. 60 luxury benchmark), 81% above-market daily rates on rentals, and 97% staff retention at assumed properties.

Timbers serves two primary customer segments: high-net-worth individuals and families seeking vacation ownership or luxury rental experiences, and institutional investors (e.g., Oaktree Capital Management, Wheelock Street Capital) seeking hospitality asset advisory and deal flow in the $40M-$200M range. Distribution is direct, via on-site property sales offices, a Central Florida-based call center, and corporate business development. Strategic partnerships, an ongoing M&A pipeline, and continued sub-brand and property launches (South Seas/Captiva, Lani Mālie at Hōkūala, Andiamo, Soleil) indicate active portfolio expansion.
