SANTO DOMINGO, Dominican Republic -- Maxim, the magazine known for scantily clad cover girls and reports on the high-flying male lifestyle, is lending its name to a new pair of Dominican Republic resorts, the developer said.
The Maxim Bungalows -- representing an investment of $100 million -- join a Dominican resort-building boom that includes the $2 billion "Trump at Cap Cana."
The first 108-bungalow resort in Cofresi Beach, near the northern city of Puerto Plata, is scheduled to open in October. A second resort with 240 rooms is slated to open in Juan Dolio, near the capital of Santo Domingo, in early 2008.
