The Hideaways Club, the luxury property investment Fund and exclusive travel lifestyle Club, announced today a reciprocal partnership with HotelSwaps, the world’s foremost hotel room exchange programme. The new alliance will provide Members of both Clubs access to an even wider collection of luxury hotels and residences around the world.
The Hideaways Club Members will now enjoy access to over 200 high quality hotels in more than 47 countries. In return, HotelSwaps’ Members will gain access to 30 of The Hideaways Club’s magnificent residential properties in over 23 locations throughout Europe, Africa & the Indian Ocean and Asia.
“We are delighted to be part of this exchange programme. As well as complement our current portfolio of luxury residences, it will further widen the choice of destinations for our growing membership”, says Poonam Dhawan-Leach, CEO of The Hideaways Club.
The Hideaways Club offers a unique way to own - and enjoy - an equity share in a diversified portfolio of exquisite properties worldwide without the management hassles of direct proprietorship. Members also benefit from a Personal Concierge service to take care of all their travel needs; from airport transfers and restaurant bookings to babysitting, in-house catering or a pre-arrival grocery shop.
The Hideaways Club provides its Members two distinctive ways to discover the world: the City Collection featuring stunning apartments in iconic cities around the globe and the Classic Collection offering an exquisite portfolio of villas and chalets from beachfront villas, to tropical retreats, to ski chalets in top resorts and restored farmhouses in rural settings.
“Our partnership with The Hideaways Club opens up an attractive new category of destinations which can be reached by our hotel owners through exchange” says Preben Vestdam, Founder & CEO of HotelSwaps. “The Hideaways Club’s collection of residential properties is a great complement to our expansive portfolio of luxury hotels worldwide.”
HotelSwaps is the world’s first hotel room exchange programme allowing owners and operators of high quality hotels to exchange their unused hotel rooms with fellow Club Members based on a digital Points currency. Preben added, “HotelSwaps is the hotel industry’s answer to the sharing economy, where value is created through sharing of available hotel rooms between likeminded hoteliers.”
