The Elite Alliance exchange program was established to enhance the value, flexibility, and enjoyment of vacation home ownership. Elite Alliance members can experience exciting new destinations by exchanging vacations with owners at other participating residence clubs and resort communities that meet Elite Alliance’s demanding standards of quality, location, and service. Elite Alliance properties are in many of the world’s most coveted destinations. Your Elite Alliance staff coordinates between Elite Alliance properties and provides complete travel services for its members.
PLEASE NOTE: to be eligible for Elite Alliance’s exchange program you must participate in The Residence Rental Program.
Every residence club and luxury, professionally managed vacation home is assigned Elite Credits based on the destination’s desirability, location, seasonality, and residence size. Elite Credits are credited to a member’s account upon deposit of a vacation and debited when that member reserves an exchange vacation. Members have up to twenty-four (24) months from the arrival date of the deposited vacation to use their Elite Credits.
Exchange vacations are deposited vacations that range from $395 – $895 to reserve, and arrival dates range from short-notice to future availability.
Elite Escapes are short-notice vacations, available sixty (60) days prior to the vacation arrival date. Reserving an Elite Escape does not require Elite Credits. Elite Escapes would be valued at many thousands of dollars but are made available to our members for $695 – $1,995.
Access Vacations are only available at select properties and are offered at preferred rates. Access Vacations do not require a vacation deposit to reserve and Elite Credits do not apply.
Some residence clubs and resort communities may charge additional fees such as daily housekeeping fees, check-out fees, recreation access fees, or other charges. Details about property-specific fees may be found Elite Alliance’s website or the Resort’s Trip Guide.
Grupo Espirtu is gifting Owners a 2-year Premium Membership in Elite Alliance providing our highest level of privileges and benefits, including complimentary 24-hour vacation holds, complimentary one-time 6-month Elite Credit extension, the ability to cancel an exchange at any time, and so much more. In addition, Premium Members have the ability to gain access to ClubBenefits, powered by ClubCorp®.
After 2-years, Owners can renew their membership with Elite Alliance by simply staying active as a member by making a vacation deposit.
Owners who have signed a Rental Management Agreement with Rancho La Puerta will be provided a 2-year Premium Membership into the Exchange Program, giving immediate access to Elite Escapes (short notice vacations).
Owners who wish to participate in the Rental Program are required to sign a rental management agreement. The sample rental management agreement provides details and the requirements for the program.
