Banyan Tree Private Collection

If you’re looking for the ultimate in timeshare, then consider the new Private Collection from Banyan Tree.   As a member you’ll get to enjoy one week a year in beautiful villas across Asia and Europe. With an annual membership fee of just $3,000, it sounds reasonably affordable, but beware the catch: the joining fee will set you back $120,000.

Banyan Tree Private Collection’s unique value lies in its complementary product offerings, ranging from resorts, spas, serviced residences and galleries to golf courses that allow the club to deliver multi-faceted, destination-specific experience and hospitality services. For those who desire tailor-made holidays, the club offers an à la carte menu of destination-specific experiences that can be prepaid. Exclusive travel experiences range from gourmet dinner on the rocks and spiritual temple treks, to diving with marine researchers.
