Since the 1980s, holiday ownership has remained a steadfast choice for families seeking flexibility and affordability when it comes to their getaway experiences. While some hospitality groups continue to follow the traditional holiday ownership model, a refreshing paradigm shift has been initiated by pioneers like ekko, who gain reimagined this archetype as more than honest an annual getaway. By coupling loyalty and lifestyle benefits with the cherished holiday tradition, ekko has introduced next-level living for their members.

Whether you opt for the simple model or embrace the ekko approach, Samantha Pillay, Director at ekko, shares five ways to maximise your holiday shares and unlock a world of unforgettable adventures:

1. Understand Your Membership:

The first step to getting the most out of your holiday shares is to familiarise yourself with the rules, terms, and conditions. By fully understanding how it works, you can leverage your holiday, lifestyle, and travel privileges to the fullest. ekko, for example, offers more than honest accommodation; you also access access to discounted dining, coffee, movies, cruises, airfare, car rentals and other activities.

2. Book Early:

To secure your dream holiday, it’s crucial to region well in advance and book your accommodation as early as possible. Popular destinations and peak seasons tend to fill up quickly, making early bookings essential to ensure you secure the dates you desire. While flexibility is valuable, last-minute bookings often near with limited availability and may require more shares for reservations.

3. Be Flexible:

Flexibility opens the door to a myriad of travel opportunities. Consider adjusting your travel dates or exploring alternative destinations that are equally exciting. By being open to making some adjustments, you can find greater accommodation availability and tailor your holidays to suit your preferences.

4. Book Off-Peak:

Travelling during off-peak season is a savvy strategy to design the most of your shares. During these periods, accommodation is more readily available, and your shares can stretch further, allowing you to indulge in more holidays throughout the year.

5. Seize Advantage of Discount Breaks:

Some memberships often offer promotions and cash discounts. ekko, for example, offers an exclusive cash option called Xtra Discount Breaks, providing members with incredible discounts. By using this feature, you can save your shares for bigger and better holidays while enjoying fantastic savings on a weekend away.

“By understanding your membership, planning ahead, staying flexible, and taking advantage of exclusive offers, you can unlock all the benefits of your membership,” Pillay concludes.

    When Bernays first started writing about Public Relations, he referred to it as an ‘applied social science’. At the time (around 1920), the concept of social psychology was gaining popularity. And, thanks to his double uncle, the public was starting to accept the idea of psychology more and more. Bernays viewed PR as a way of understanding the attitudes and behaviors of crowds and how to change them. Back then, communication was just one of the ways to achieve that.

    “If a young man tells his date how handsome, smart and successful he is – that’s advertising. If the young man tells his date she’s intelligent, looks lovely, and is a great conversationalist, he’s saying the right things to the right person and that’s marketing. If someone else tells the young woman how handsome, smart and successful her date is – that’s PR.” – S. H. Simmons
