Tanner & Haley Destination Clubs

Luxury Clubs: You have dreams. Wide awake dreams. Tracking figure eights through two feet of powder in a back bowl at Vail dreams. Hopping a private jet for a family weekend in London. Catching an overdue nap in a hammock in Cabo. And all of these dreams have one thing in common. Someone else does all the work. The planning. The dinner reservations. The ski passes, the front row tickets, the limo to the airport. Even the luggage, skis, and golf clubs picked up and delivered to your destination. That's what's so wonderful about Tanner & Haley. It's not a dream.

Founded in 1998 as Private Retreats, Tanner & Haley Destination Clubs grew out of the vision of its founder, Rob McGrath, the 2003 Ernst and Young Entrepreneur of the Year, to create a club of clubs which would address the shortcomings of luxury resort real estate ownership and the inefficiencies of the high-end travel market.

Tanner & Haley has continuously strived to improve its Members' travel experiences. Members now have access to executive aircraft, ocean-going private watercraft and apartments and suites in luxury, boutique properties.

The strategy has worked. Tanner & Haley has more than 750 members, including a large number of CEOs and presidents of Fortune 500 companies as well as the managing directors of numerous real estate opportunity funds, venture capital firms, and money management institutions. As a result, new Members can rest assured that all clubs have been scrutinized time and again for their financial stability and experience delivery.

Membership in Tanner & Haley assures a measure of exclusivity not available with other destination clubs. Only a limited number of Members are accepted into the Clubs to gain the perfect balance between Members and residences. In this way they ensure a home will be available in your desired destination whenever you want to visit, and also help protect the value of your investment in the Club.

"Our place at the beach." On the surface, it exudes privilege, escape. But it has a singular limitation. It's singular. By contrast, Tanner & Haley Members are often overheard discussing their "places at the beaches, getaways in the mountains, and apartments in the cities." That's because they have 150 luxurious homes in 35 superb resort areas at their disposal. These residences average 4,000 square feet, three to four bedrooms, and $2.8 million in value. Their hardwood floors, inviting swimming pools, and kitchens designed to Culinary Institute of America specifications are matched by a Who's Who of appointments: Wolf and SubZero appliances, Fortessa china, Anichini linens, and Molton Brown toiletries.

Lagniappe (lan-yap), derived from the French, it means "a little something extra," which defines the Tanner & Haley philosophy perfectly. They are dedicated to providing Members with the extra services, amenities and privileges that are available from no other destination club.

Through Lagniappe's three distinct luxury categories, you'll fly on private jets on your schedule not an airline's; supercharge your experiences as world famous experts act as your personal guides; and pamper yourself with the finest home accoutrements, from pillow cases to the refrigerator.

Members may choose between four Tanner & Haley Destination Clubs, Private Retreats, Distinctive Retreats, Distinctive Retreats II and Legendary Retreats. Each has its own pricing structure, allowing Members to choose the level of membership that suits their lives best. Whatever Club they choose to join, they have access to their homes whenever they like and are not limited to the number of days during the year they may enjoy Tanner & Haley vacations. Nor are they limited to the activities they may enjoy.

Planet Earth. You've always thought it was a great place for a retreat. It's got it all. Tall mountains to ski down or sun swept beaches to build castles on and exciting cities to play in. If you could pick the best places on this beautiful blue ball to visit, they'd have names like New York, London, Bermuda, Aspen, and Maui. Which is an uncanny coincidence? These five destinations and 30 more, are all part of the Tanner & Haley portfolio. Interestingly, you can visit all 35 Tanner & Haley destinations right now.
