England may not be playing at their peak during the World Cup, but London remains one of the greatest vacation destinations on the planet, marrying an old world charm with a large financial center and medieval architecture with contemporary amenities. Over the past week, readers have voiced their thoughts on their favorite destination club property in the region, selecting Quintess, LRW over their peers Exclusive Resorts and Banyan Tree Private Collection.

Both of the two Quintess properties in London can be found on St. James Street, one of the most famous in the city. The aptly titled St. James residence rests on the fourth floor, complete with access to a lift. At over 1,500 square feet, St. James counts two bedrooms and two and one half baths, large by anyone's standards for this urban locale. Utilizing a minimalist philosophy in regards to furnishing, the large windows bring the city to you from beside your cozy fireplace.

Guests have the entire city at their disposal from their ideally located base camp. Within walking distance, members can find their way to Buckingham Palace, Piccadilly Circus, and St. James Park. Prior to arrival, a 40 page planning guide is also provided, giving travelers insight into popular attractions, travel tips, and recommendations while in residence.

In 2012, London will host the Olympic games, making both of the already popular Quintess properties to be even more highly sought after. Destination clubs with properties in South Africa have seen a similar surge on interest as a result of the World Cup. Destination club membership can be a far better alternative then other travel options for those who want to experience events like the Olympics, World Cup, concerts, festivals, and other popular happenings.
