Favorite destination locations?

jam · 03-28-2008, 02:02 PM

I thought I might throw this out as a suggested topic for discussion. Maybe it has been beaten to death before. If so, I apologize and please remove the thread. I was wondering what are and why are the most popular destinations.

I love Cabo. That seems to be shared by large numbers of other DC members since it is the location with the most properties. I find it exotic enough to feel different but American enough that it feels very comfortable and secure. They have a long season and great weather. It is also reasonably easy to get to since most people can get there with one or two flights. In contrast, many Carribbean locations require three flights from most American cities.

The location that I would most like to visit would be Tuscany. There are few clubs with properties there now and those are reportedly most difficult to schedule.

My favorite ski location is Snowmass. Ski Snowmass, dine and shop in Aspen. Few clubs have Snowmass locations, mine doesn't so I have been skiing Telluride.

Other thoughts?

Depending on how you ask the question, Halogen Guide has a report of the Top 10 Destination Clubs

Helium Report - Top 10 Destination Club Locations

They took a look at the portfolios of nine of the biggest U.S.-based destination clubs (however, the clubs were not specified) and found the top 10 locations were:

#1 Cabo San Lucas
#2 New York
#3 Maui
#4 Scottsdale
#5 Deer Valley
#6 Costa Rica
#7 Telluride
#8 Lake Tahoe
#9 Paris
#10 Miami

If you ask a general question it would be:

1. Beach resorts
2. Mountain resorts
3. City destinations
