We set out to measure 25 brands in this growing hospitality category. However, in the minds of ultra-wealthy consumers, the Destination Club industry is still in its early stages of development.

In this highly fragmented category, few brands have generated sufficient awareness, or differentiation, to make a strong impression on the wealthy. This accounts for the tight variances in scores across most dimensions on luxury status.

There are dangers that social difficulties can arise when you mix 11-year-olds with 15-year-olds. For example, if a 15-year-old was sent down to work with 11-year-olds that could lead to a serious loss of self-esteem and would be seen by peers as a sign of failure.
