LUSSO Collection
Usage
For the majority of the boutique destination club's time in the industry, LUSSO Collection offered just one membership plan, LUSSO Unlimited. Members could travel on an unlimited annual basis, subject to the club's rules and regulation and property availability.
Late in the club's history, LUSSO Collection would introduce LUSSO 21, a membership plan providing the same services as LUSSO Unlimited, but with only 21 nights of annual access.
LUSSO would have three different reservation classifications based on the time at which the reservation was made.
Standard Reservations
Standard reservations would be those made between 15 and 365 days prior to travel. Reservations could be made for a maximum of 14 consecutive nights and a minimum of two consecutive nights. Members could have up to four standard reservations in the reservation calendar at one time, not to exceed 35 nights.
Advanced Reservations
Defined as reservations made between 366 and 730 days in advance of travel, advanced reservations allowed members the ability to stay for up to seven consecutive nights or as few as two consecutive nights. Members could not hold more than two advanced reservations at one time, not to exceed 14 nights.
Short Notice Reservations
Short notice reservations were those made less than 15 days prior to travel. These types of reservations allowed a member the ability to stay for 14 consecutive nights or as few as one night. Members could make unlimited short notice reservations throughout the year.
The general policies regarding travel within the LUSSO Collection include:
- Members cannot reserve more than one Club Property for the same day unless the Member is leaving one Club Property and arriving into another Club Property on the same day.
- All reservations of Club Properties are made on a first-come, first-served basis and subject to availability of a property, at the time the reservation is made, for the desired duration in the Club Location of the Member's choice.
- A Member may not return, or schedule to return, to a Club destination within 14 days of the end of a stay, or scheduled stay, at that same destination, except under a Short Notice Reservation
- No more than two of a Member's permitted maximum of four Standard Reservations and two Advanced Reservations at any point in time may be for the same Club location. Short Notice Reservations are excluded from this provision.
These travel benefits were one of the leading reasons how LUSSO Collection established themselves as one of the industry's largest destination clubs. Unfortunately, with virtually no material sales in 2008, LUSSO was forced into bankruptcy.
