Capricorne Villas
Usage
Most destination clubs offer membership plans that provide members a predetermined number of nights of access per year, with each membership plan having its own membership deposit and annual dues.
Capricorne Villas lets members travels as many or as few nights as they wish each year.
Rather than paying a refundable membership deposit and annual dues, as is the case for the majority of the industry's leading clubs, Capricorne Villas charges no up-front costs or annual dues. Instead, members pay a variable per night fee for every day they travel. Prices vary based on the property and dates that a member wishes to travel. With this cost structure depending solely on per night fees, members can travel every day or not travel at all.
Many compare this type of model more to a rental organization since no membership deposit is required, but Capricorne Villas does supply members with many of the same benefits that destination clubs provide to members, including:
- Pre-travel planning
- On-site destination hosts
- Villa pre-stocking
- Meet and greet
- Expeditions and activities
As can be assumed, members that travel during the low season receive the best pricing, members traveling during higher seasons pay increased rates, and members wishing to travel during holiday seasons pay the highest per night costs.
These per night costs are demonstrably higher than the rates charged at other destination clubs, but members at Capricorne Villas do not have to pay annual dues or any up-front membership fees. Based on your own travel needs, a club structure like Capricorne Villas may work well if:
- Your amount of travel varies greatly from year to year.
- You are unsure about the security of paying a refundable membership deposit.
- You travel primarily during low peak seasons.
