Mike Ditka's Lighthouse Key Resort

The Expedia Insiders' Select List represents only about 1 percent of all
properties offered worldwide on the popular internet-based travel booking
service, Expedia.com. The Expedia Insiders' Select list was developed using a
weighted mathematical formula that factored Expedia.com's hundreds of
thousands of Traveler Opinions, hotel reviews created by Expedia travelers who
have recently completed a hotel stay. Expedia also compared hotel properties
to others within the same star-rating and geographical location to identify
hotels that deliver not only an exemplary overall experience but also a
notable value for the money. The company also incorporated local expertise and
insight from hundreds of Expedia employees throughout the world.
Lighthouse Key Resort and Spa has managed to garner substantial attention
from the millions of consumers who visit Expedia.com every month to shop for
and book travel accommodations. The resort's excellent service and
state-of-the-art amenities have earned them a competitive advantage amongst
the world's top hotels.
"It is a remarkable accomplishment for any hotel to receive this award.
Having obtained it less than a year after opening is truly an honor for Mike
Ditka Resorts, and we are extremely excited to be ranked as one of the most
popular hotels in the entire world according to Expedia," said Tim Gross,
General Manager of Lighthouse Key Resort and Spa.
