Two leaders in the second/vacation home sector formed a joint marketing agreement to promote Destination Club memberships.

The agreement gives Private Escapes Destination Clubs a six-month exclusive in the newly formed Destination Club category on PrivateCommunities.com, the companies announced today. The Destination Club concept is a hybrid between second home living and luxury travel.

With headquarters in Fort Collins, Colorado, Private Escapes Destination Clubs sells memberships to Private Escapes and Private Escapes Platinum that give members access to 70 residences in 25 destinations worldwide for each club. Included in the offering is a fully staffed, 80’ yacht based in the British Virgin Islands, a four bedroom golf-view home at PGA West in La Quinta, California, and a suite at Trump Tower in New York City.

Vero Beach, Florida-based PrivateCommunities.com is a nine year-old portal website that markets to consumers seeking information about second homes in master-planned communities. The company publishes detailed information about Private Escapes Destination Clubs offerings with high-resolution photographs, floor plans, and full descriptions of each residence in the program.
