Oceanfront Private Island Resort Property

Savage Jungle Inc. (Jungla Salvaje S.A.) is a resort project on 1,323 acres of pristine, untouched rainforest that includes 3 lakes, 2 rivers and 26 massive waterfalls on an uninhabited island. It is the only resort on an island the size of the main island of Hawaii—the remainder is a protected national park. Savage Jungle has been selected by the Chilean government to develop an exclusive private island resort on Isla Magdalena National Park property that is now privately owned by Savage Jungle. The government's authorization of an exclusive commercial concession, in effect, grants Savage Jungle privileges that are a source of economic opportunity, by granting Savage Jungle a world-class resort-property with a long-term sustainable competitive advantage similar to a monopoly on this island. Because all of the land in the area is government and national park land, there is a barrier to entry for any competitors.

There are no five-star hotels in the state-sized region where Savage Jungle is located and there are 187,200 tourists in our back yard (visiting the National Park) with only one place to stay. This situation will allow Savage Jungle to earn profits that are possible only in a few places in the world.

Plants like the Nalca (Gunnera) are typical of the island. Yes, that is one leaf.

There is only one lodge with four-star American standards. It is seven miles away from Savage Jungle and hidden beyond a bend in the fjord, so that no habitation spoils the view. This rustic lodge fills to capacity its thirty-one rooms with weekly rates of US$3,200.00 per person or daily rates up to $865/night/person during the long summer season. They are open year-around and are at 82% of capacity for the entire year.

A business plan shows that a 25-room hotel will be an unusually profitable investment in the first year of operation with a cumulative net income after taxes for five years of $20,735,508 capturing sales of $25,949,355. The projected sales are almost 15 times the $1,800,000 investment needed to complete the project. The Chilean government is even helping us attract foreign investment and tourism by offering a 20-40% tax credit of the total investment to help us build our hotel.

The owner is seeking co-owners. We are raising $1,800,000 of investment, and our bank has agreed to put up $1,200,000 for a total of $3,000,000 which would allow us to complete the construction of a 25-room hotel, a restaurant, a three-story conference room, two docks, the purchase of a boat, an excavator and all the fitting out. Savage Jungle has purchased the property and brought the project to its present state. Additional investment is needed from a co-owner or multiple co-owners. If interested, e-mail Savage Jungle.

A little history of the property. After having searched the world, the founder, a pilot, discovered Patagonia's West Coast and flew the vast fjords, crystal clear lakes, enormous forests, and thousands of islands of Southern Chile scouting up and down every fjord for the ideal property. Eventually he found a veritable Eden—a large, uninhabited island (click here to see map) untouched by man, densely forested with old growth trees and rare plants, dotted with lakes, well watered with rivers, and surrounded by the "Swiss Alps of Chile" reaching nearly four miles high. The property has twenty-six independent waterfalls originating in large streams that fall hundreds of feet into the main rivers. The rivers themselves drop spectacularly into 2 protected fjords distant from one another where blue dolphins play.

The white sandy beach and 100ft waterfall are included in the land. This photo is from an airplane.

The government controls almost all of the land in region XI of southern Chile called Patagonia. Undaunted, the founder literally drew the strangest shaped 9-mile, snake-like property of what he wanted in order to own the best waterfalls, rivers, and lakes. Then he spent the next 4.5 years in negotiations with the Chilean government for permission to purchase the formerly National Park land.

Shortly after Savage Jungle purchased the land it immediately became more valuable, because in the future all national park and government land may only be leased, similar to U.S. government land. It is the only project where the property lines were drawn by the purchaser. It includes a level site of approximately 32 acres (13.34 hectares) of private property on the shoreline, and a 50-year leased concession on an additional 1,291 acres lying on both sides of the nine-mile series of waterfalls that descend at the base of our private property into the fjord as a single, spectacular waterfall. This property provides the public the only access to the secluded interior of the island, and the only developed embarkation point for adventures into Isla Magdalena National Park with an admittance fee to use our trails. The project was personally signed by President Lagos of Chile, who pushed it forward as a "top priority," and it has been twice featured in the leading newspaper in Santiago, the Mercurial in full page stories of Chile's leading tourism projects. Chile is proud of this resort project.

As remote as the island might seem, our location has a runway capable of handling corporate jets or large twin engine airplanes. This runway is almost like having our own private airstrip because it is 7 miles away from the hotel location so that guests and supplies can easily be flown in, but it was built by the government for public use. It is far from any other town or habitation so it is a secluded, nearly exclusive airstrip. There is only one other lodge within miles of the runway.

There is also the main north/south highway, the Camino Austral, of Chile that is now being paved, that is just one-mile across the narrow channel. From the Camino Austral it is a few minute boat ride (accompanied by the ever-present dolphins). The highway is being paved starting where we are, to the international airport in Balmaceda, capable of handling 727s, 737s, etc.

In addition, ferry service to the nearby Puerto Cisnes from Puerto Montt, began in 2001 and passes twice a day directly in front of our property. The ferry service quoted us $138 to deliver a 20-ton excavator from Puerto Montt directly to our property. This inexpensive delivery of construction equipment and materials is a competitive advantage for construction that our only competitor does not have since they are not on the ferry route.

Our region was settled by people of German descent who have built German style homes and chalets in this picture perfect "Switzerland of South America" surrounded by majestic Andean peaks. Chile is an entirely fiber-optically linked, first-world country where you will feel safe and secure. With the new highway being paved, our location will become the next world-class resort area. Using historical comparisons of dramatic growth, we will soon have million-dollar condos, yachts, and floods of tourists to our island.
