Extraordinary Vacations Begin With Extraordinary Properties

TheSociety.com launches a New Era of Luxury Vacation Planning

Today, The Society of Leisure Enthusiasts (TheSociety.com) opens its virtual doors and ushers in a new era of luxury vacation planning. As a premier online marketplace for elite vacation rentals, The Society offers a collection of luxurious private residences in beach, mountain and desert destinations.
The Society’s luxury standards are steered by a board of industry experts who ensure that each property meets the standards and guidelines of a true luxury vacation rental. This distinguishes The Society as a different breed of travel site, just as its users are a different breed of traveler. These discerning vacationers desire more privacy, comfort, space and entertaining options. By placing travelers in the world’s most elite homes, The Society meets these needs as well as breaks the monotony of the mass-produced hotel experience and saves travelers money.
“Your average double-occupancy room at a luxury hotel during spring break in Beaver Creek will go for about $1,000 per night, whereas a 6-bedroom luxury vacation rental is about $450 per room, per night,” said Jon Eskin, general manager of Prudential Colorado Properties in Vail and Beaver Creek, Colo. “This is a great value for travelers without sacrificing amenities and provides them with an unforgettable vacation.” Travelers in search of a true luxury experience choose the world’s most exclusive hotel brands because they know exactly what they will get. The Society aims to create a trusted marketplace through which travelers know they will find extraordinary properties that will facilitate extraordinary vacations. The world’s most discerning travelers demand luxurious accommodations in the most renowned travel destinations, highlighted by premier services and amenities.
“Our commitment is to be the symbol of luxury,” said Michael McFadden, co-founder of The Society. “Booking through The Society ensures a traveler they will enjoy the benefits of a world-class rental property.” The Society has created a hybrid of a convenient Web tool and an elite concierge to offer property managers, second homeowners and travelers trusted brands, sophisticated tools and vacation rental resources. “We recognized that existing methods to search for a luxury vacation rental were not providing travelers with a reliable resource to book with assurance,” said McFadden. “Additionally there was not a reliable resource for second homeowners to confidently market and rent out their homes. With over 6 million vacation homes in the U.S. that sit vacant more than 85 percent of the year, we knew there was a great opportunity.”
To complement the guidance provided by The Society’s board of industry professionals, members of The Society are able to participate in blog discussions, rate destinations and post user-generated content. “By connecting guests to our social communities and technologies, we give them the opportunity to collaborate with other members as well as view nearby world-class ski resorts, golf courses, lakes, beaches and restaurants in destinations like Colorado, California and Florida among others. This in turn will help them plan the perfect vacation.” McFadden said.

The Society. A symbol of luxury. At The Society, you’ll discover only the finest in luxury vacation rental homes in beach, mountain and desert destinations. Unlike typical online vacation search sites, The Society ensures that each vacation home meets quality standards established by experts in the luxury real estate industry. Also, members and guests of The Society have access to The Society-rated concierge information including the best golf courses in an area, nearest ski resort or popular restaurants. Planning an unforgettable luxurious vacation just got easier. Discover a new way to luxury travel at http://www.thesociety.com/.

  2. great way to find the perfect vacation

  3. This sounds similar to the concept of a destination club. It is a pretty young industry, but there is a wide range of price points and properties available with membership.

  5. To sfapril,
    It is similar to a destination club in product control (great vacation homes); however, there are no membership fees and you pay per trip instead of an annual charge.
