After the recent announcement of a US$200 million merger between Private Escapes and Ultimate Resort, the former has revealed a membership incentive that will be available for the next 30 days or so.

The offer - today’s pricing (apparently prices will increase by roughly 30% after the merger has been completed); a membership deposit refund of 80% of the current deposit at the time of resignation; unlimited use (the company says use is likely to be capped for members who join after the merger); and seven nights per year of reciprocal access to the other Private Escapes clubs (again, this won’t be available for members who join post-merger).

If you think this sounds more like ‘Act now, before we increase prices and change terms’ than a strong offer, we think you’d be right. However, if Private Escapes is the club for you, better to join now than after the merger.
