About Elite Alliance

 

Elite Alliance is a vacation exchange program for owners of prestigious residence clubs and luxurious, professionally managed vacation homes.

 

The exchange process allows members to travel to more than 100+ incredible destinations such as Cabo San Lucas, New York City, San Francisco, Napa Valley, the Bahamas, Costa Rica and Bermuda. Members can explore ski trips, golf getaways, beach escapes and urban adventures in the world’s most desirable locations.

 

One of the fundamental requirements for acceptance into the Elite Alliance is compliance with its demanding brand standards. This ensures that affiliation is only offered to those that truly match premium standards of quality, service, location and amenities. Members experience all the comfort, convenience and gracious hospitality commensurate with the expectations of a luxury vacation.

 

Who is eligible for an Elite Alliance membership?

 

Elite Alliance is for anyone who owns a luxury residence club or professionally managed vacation home that has been hand-selected for participation within the Elite Alliance portfolio.

 

What are the categories of Membership?

 

There are two types of Elite Alliance memberships:

 

  1. A Premium Membership in Elite Alliance provides the highest level of membership privileges and benefits. In addition to all the benefits a Core Membership provides, a Premium Membership provides access to complimentary 24-hour vacation holds, complimentary one time 6-month Elite Credit extensions, the ability to cancel an exchange at any time, access to discounted vacation opportunities, and exclusive access to ClubBenefits, powered by Club Corp. ClubBenefits provides exclusive access to incredible golf, country and business clubs, and resorts and spas around the world, as well as an array of amenities including luxury dining, sports, theatre and concert tickets.
  2. A Core Membership in Elite Alliance provides access to all 100+ destinations within the Elite Alliance portfolio, full-service call center and travel coordination, privileges and discounts with a growing array of luxury lifestyle brands, last-minute vacation opportunities that do not require a deposit, detailed Trip Guides and much more.

 

If I am not a luxury homeowner, can I still participate in Elite Alliance?

 

Yes. Luxury travelers who do not own at a participating property within the Elite Alliance collection can join Elite Alliance as an Affiliate Member.

 

There are two options when joining Elite Alliance as an Affiliate Member:

 

  1. A Globetrotter earns 250 Elite Credits to use over the course of 24 months. This equates to roughly 25 – 40 vacation nights.
  2. An Elite Explorer earns 100 Elite Credits to use over the course of 18 months. This equates to roughly 7 – 25 vacation nights.

 

How does the exchange process work?

 

Once you sign up for membership, you can start depositing your unused time at your residence to earn Elite Credits, vacation currency, to reserve vacations around the world.

 

Members can select 7-, 4- or 3-night vacations at participating properties. Residences range from studio suites to five, six and even massive eight-bedroom homes. The number of Elite Credits differ based upon the destination, residence size, length of stay, seasonality and desirability. Members could potentially deposit just one Peak vacation and earn enough Elite Credits to reserve multiple vacations.

 

If a member does not want to deposit one of their vacations, there is also the ability to reserve vacations without using Elite Credits. These vacations are called Elite Escapes and are available to book by simply paying a discounted flat fee.

 

Although Affiliate Members do not have the ability to deposit time to earn Elite Credits, they are awarded Elite Credits upon joining, and are able to reserve vacations until the Elite Credits have been exhausted.

 

Members can search destinations and available inventory by logging in to the Elite Alliance website portal. All location and property details are provided, and all available exchanges are shown in real-time with the ability to book on the spot. If a member is interested in a specific property or location that does not show availability, members have access to two different request features.

 

Where can I travel?

 

Elite Alliance has an ever-expanding portfolio of worldwide destinations with options for every type of vacation, adventurer or traveler. As its portfolio of properties continues to grow, so will the number of your vacation opportunities.

 

Keeping with its demanding standards of excellence, members can choose between residence clubs that feature resort amenities and services such as, on-site restaurants, bars and lounges, full-service spas, swimming pools, fitness centers, activities and so much more. For those looking for a more intimate and private setting, members can select private residences within a residential community. All private residences must adhere to the same property standards of quality and appeal, as well as be professionally managed with concierge services.

 

Not only do members have access to two different types of properties within Elite Alliance, members can select faraway getaways to destinations such as Europe, Africa and Asia or stick closer to home and visit prestigious locations in the US and Canada including, California, Colorado, Florida, Montreal and so much more. Members can explore the world, one exquisite vacation at a time.

 

Each location brings its own unique lifestyle for you to embrace. Members can journey to golf, mountain, beach or adventure destinations.
