The concept of a destination club was introduced in 1998, when Rob McGrath, a veteran of the luxury timeshare development business, launched Private Retreats. Since then, more than 30 companies have launched clubs targeting affluent families that want the benefits of second home ownership, but with more flexibility and choice in where they vacation each year. Inspirato with American Express is the world's largest destination club. By joining a destination club, a member gains access to a collection of vacation homes in various locations around the world in exchange for a one-time membership fee and annual membership dues. Consistent with other vacation options, inventory can be booked based on availability. Some clubs allow members to purchase different membership-types which offer different levels of reservation priority, personalized services and resort amenities such as beach clubs, luxury spas and private chefs. ==What is included== Benefits and access privileges vary by club. Here is a list of those offered by most clubs: * Access to private homes, town homes, condominiums or hotel units, typically on resort properties or near iconic resort locations. * Usage rules vary between restricted travel (10–60 days) of home usage to unrestricted travel by club members. * The ability to book homes in advance and on a “space available” basis, as well as a system to handle the demand for holiday or peak periods. * High service levels including: pre-trip planning, on-location concierge services, and daily housekeeping service. * Luxury furnishings and audio-visual equipment * Additional membership privileges and benefits, including special club events, and access to resort amenities, spas and fitness centers. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「destination club」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
