PERSPECTIVE

A modern, clearly defined approach to exclusive destinations and effortless enjoyment.

OWNERSHIP, REIMAGINED

A Different Perspective

Access to second homes has evolved through many forms, each shaped by distinct priorities. Some favour convenience, others flexibility, others the efficiencies of shared use. Each offers a version of access — yet each involves its own set of compromises.

The Sanctuary Collection begins from a different perspective. It does not seek to maximise usage, scale, or optionality, but instead values continuity, familiarity, and access to a lifestyle that would otherwise be impractical to maintain. This is not the creation of a category, but a quieter return to a place that feels distinctly your own.

A New Standard of Ownership

The Sanctuary Collection brings clarity and structure to shared ownership—offering genuine equity in extraordinary homes without the limitations of timeshares, fractional schemes, or destination clubs. Each residence is held within a professionally managed partnership, ensuring alignment of interests, complete transparency, and a clearly defined path to exit.

This refined approach combines the freedom of use with the confidence of true ownership. By removing the burdens of sole ownership—substantial upfront costs, ongoing expenses, and the demands of management—it creates access to exceptional homes that might otherwise be out of reach or impractical to own outright.

An evolved expression of co-ownership, designed for those who value clarity, connection, and a life enriched by place and experience—without compromise.

Timeshare

Timeshare arrangements prioritise access through standardisation. Time is fixed or rotational, residences are interchangeable, and use is governed by scheduling rather than personal connection. While this can offer predictability, it rarely supports a lasting bond with place.

Initiation fees are often substantial relative to the access provided, with ongoing costs that persist regardless of use. Benefits are typically narrow, constrained by rigid calendars and limited flexibility, and rarely extend beyond short, pre-defined stays.

The result is an experience shaped around availability rather than belonging — better suited to brief visits than to time that allows a destination to be genuinely known.

Destination Clubs

Destination clubs offer variety across homes, supported by centralised services and shared infrastructure. They enable movement between locations while delivering a consistent level of accommodation, regardless of place.

What they often lack is permanence. Residences rotate, availability fluctuates, and the relationship remains with the platform rather than a specific location. Joining fees and ongoing dues can be substantial, frequently underwriting layers of service and amenity that are infrequently used or personally irrelevant.

Over time, the lifestyle becomes one of transit rather than return — shaped as much by cost structure and availability as by place itself.

Traditional Ownership

Direct ownership offers permanence and the potential for long-term capital appreciation, particularly in strong markets.

That potential is closely tied to how a property is managed and used. Many second homes sit vacant for much of the year while still requiring ongoing oversight, maintenance, and financial commitment — narrowing the upside that appreciation alone is expected to deliver.

Beyond this, substantial capital is tied up in an asset that is infrequently used and difficult to optimise. For those seeking a lifestyle shaped by presence rather than administration, ownership can become more constraining than liberating.

How We Compare

Shared ownership has taken many forms—each offering its own version of access, flexibility, or convenience.
Timeshares provide use without ownership; fractionals introduce shared title but often lack cohesion; destination clubs deliver service and familiarity but no enduring connection to place.

The Sanctuary Collection brings clarity to this landscape, combining the most valued elements of each within a transparent, professionally managed framework. It offers the assurance of true ownership, the ease of thoughtful management, and the freedom to enjoy extraordinary homes in some of the world’s most desirable destinations.

The Sanctuary Collection

The Sanctuary Collection is shaped with a different intent. Access is centred on extended stays at a primary residence, allowing time to unfold with ease and familiarity. Residences are exclusive, professionally maintained and prepared, while access remains personal, private, and discreet — grounded in return rather than rotation.

Flexibility is present, but it is not the focus. Exchange is offered as a complement to the primary experience, introducing variety without disrupting the established rhythm of time spent in one place. Scale is limited by design, preserving privacy, predictability, and the distinct character of each residence.

Rather than optimising for frequency or breadth, the Collection is oriented around familiarity. It enables a way of living that comes from returning to the same place, at similar times, year after year — offering access to an established lifestyle without the obligations of ownership or the transience of hospitality.
