FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

KERZNER ISSUES STATEMENT FOLLOWING

EVENTS IN SOUTHERN ASIA

PARADISE ISLAND, The Bahamas, December 27, 2004 – Kerzner International Limited (NYSE:KZL) (the “Company”) today released a statement regarding the impact of yesterday’s events in southern Asia related to an earthquake off the coast of Indonesia.  The Company currently manages and owns a 20% interest in the 100-room One&Only Kanuhura and is the manager and developer of a second property, the 130-room One&Only Reethi Rah, which is scheduled to open in the second quarter of 2005.  The Maldives, a group of islands approximately 600 miles southwest of the southern tip of India, sustained damages from flooding due to the effects of seismic waves that were above normal.

Following is the Company’s statement:

“We are currently in the process of assessing damages at our two properties in the Maldives.  Initial reports indicate that we did not experience significant damage, other than some flooding.  We currently have no injuries to report.  Male International Airport has re-opened and the One&Only Kanuhura is open and communication with the property is functional.

Both of the Company’s properties in the Maldives are covered by insurance.  The One&Only Kanuhura maintains asset protection and business interruption insurance coverage for flood-related events that are subject to limited deductibles.  The development of the One&Only Reethi Rah is covered by a construction insurance policy, which the Company expects will cover damages.

We would like to extend our concern and sympathy to those affected by the events in southern Asia and will work closely with local authorities to provide our support, if needed.”

For the year ended December 31, 2004, the Company expects to record management fees and equity earnings related to its operations and ownership interests in the Maldives of approximately $2 million.
