Fontainebleau Resorts, LLC, is a resort-hotel company started in Florida by South Florida real estate developers Turnberry Associates[1] and the Plant family in 2005, after their purchase of the Fontainebleau Hotel in Miami Beach. The two families each hold a 50% stake in the company. The company is based in Enterprise, Nevada.[2][3]

## History

[edit]

The company is headed by Turnberry Principal, Jeffrey Soffer, PLANTworldwide owner Brett Plant, and former Mandalay Resort Group President, Glenn Schaeffer. The company currently has several ongoing hotel and condominium development projects in Miami Beach and Las Vegas, with several more on the way, and Schaeffer has suggested that Fontainebleau will go public in order to raise money for their multibillion-dollar development plans.[citation needed]

On April 17, 2007, Publishing & Broadcasting Limited announced that it had entered into an agreement to acquire 19% of Fontainebleau Resorts for $250 million.[4]

Schaeffer left Fontainebleau Resorts without explanation in May 2009.[5] Schaeffer was primarily responsible for securing more than $3 billion in loans for the Fontainebleau Resort Las Vegas project.[6]

The Fontainebleau Miami Beach resorts new Coastal Convention Center was opened December 11, 2024.[7]

In early 2025, Fontainebleau Las Vegas finalized a labor agreement with the Culinary Workers Union Local 226 and Bartenders Union Local 165, ensuring job security and standardized wages for 3,300 employees.[8]
