What’s in it for co-owners & guests

f²h

© Domaine & Demeure

• A new way to travel, to go on vacation, to own a second home• For co-owners: ▫ More than just money – why pay 100% of a vacation home to use it

only 15% of the time?

▫ Hotel rooms for their guests – like an « extendable » holiday home

▫ Paris & Provence: so co-owners can stop over in the City of Lights

• For hotels guests:▫ True boutique hotels: historic properties, modern amenities, just 20

rooms, the same 4-star service that co-owners enjoy

▫ A boutique hotel for less: the quality, the style, the service – without the stupid prices
