Crescent Club
Holiday Access

Comparing themselves against the more traditional "membership club" model, The Crescent Club outline the notable differences between their design and that of their more popular competitors.

Launched in 1999, The Crescent Club would be one of the first modern players to enter the shared ownership arena, trailing primarily only Private Retreats in the destination club industry.

Unlike other destination clubs of the era that near exclusively sold members "right to use" memberships with no equity stake in the club or its properties, The Crescent Club would give members "a deeded one-sixth interest in one of the club's large luxury vacation homes as well as access to all of the club's other outstanding homes."

Each member would receive 56 nights of annual access to the club's portfolio with the ability to travel beyond that limit subject to availability. For peak season access, The Crescent Club used a "rotating priority system."

While one of the most equitable holiday structures used throughout the destination club industry, it isn't the most optimal design for members who wish to travel every year during peak travel periods.
