If a luxuryholiday home is all you want from your money, then membership of the Oyster Circle might be just the answer.

For a fraction of what it costs to own a single home from home, membership of the Oyster Circle provides its members with access to a large portfolio of stunning homes in spectacular locations throughout the world. The founders and management offer members the luxury and exclusivity of high-end second home ownership, combined with the service of a five star resort or concierge facility. In addition, your entire vacation can be organised by a personal assistant who can advise, plan and deliver all aspects of the perfect holiday. On arrival, your every wish will be addressed by a local English speaking concierge.

Membership is limited to 400 members with a ratio of one property to every six members. This ensures that access to each home is virtually guaranteed, and all of this for just a fraction of acquiring one of these fabulous mansions. Oyster's extensive portfolio includes villas, chalets and city apartments. Each of the 67 properties will have cost between €3 million and €5 million to buy and equip, so if luxury and style are staples of your holiday diet then membership of the Oyster Circle might be the order of the day.
