“Our entire family spent two weeks vacationing in Florida.”

“With our VIP membership, our group of 9 family members booked 3 [star credit] condos for 2 weeks. It costs us 18 stars and $2,274 total to book this trip. This club feels like owning a vacation home, but without the stress. Every year I look forward to spending time with our family in paradise.”

Global Discovery
vs. Vacation Home

Are you prepared for all the headaches and unforeseen costs that come with owning your own vacation home? Do you want to visit the same destination, year after year? Would you enjoy access to an attentive concierge service program and resort amenities? We are property management and customer service experts, experienced in caring for both our member experiences and the properties we manage.

Retail Prices are
Usually Inflated

Are you still paying premiums on the open rental market, only to never see that money again? Imagine having lifetime access to an impressive portfolio of vacation homes at fixed rates and discounted hotels around the globe. Enjoy access to incredible vacations for your lifetime, then transfer the permanently renewable membership to your family.

The Ultimate
Travel Subscription

Our membership originated the vacation club model decades ago as a way to take vacations in a more economic way, and have opportunities to create lifelong memories. For savvy consumers who value quality, variety, service, freedom, flexibility and stability, we are confident our model is superior to alternatives. If you are considering timeshare which may seem similar on the surface, we strongly encourage you to dig a little deeper and ask questions to verify.
