Those fortunate to own luxury second or holiday homes are in for some good news, with Elite Resorts of Asia Pacific brand extension Elite Living securing an exclusive arrangement with the world’s most luxurious private exchange program, 3RD HOME, for 12 Asian Countries.

3RD HOME represents the elite end of the property exchange concept for travel, enabling luxury property owners to leverage the value of their own holiday home, by using unoccupied time to travel to different destinations, without the hassles or high cost of renting.

A members-only club, 3RD HOME is open exclusively to those who own a second home in desirable locations with quality furnishings, appointments and amenities.

By depositing available weeks in a holiday home into the club system, members earn ‘Keys’ relative to the value of the property that can be immediately used to stay at a whole host of other premium properties in a huge variety of international holiday destinations. All of this in real time, online.

While the concept of property exchange isn’t new in itself – first there was couch surfing, then house swapping – the introduction of 3RD HOME means that the concept is no longer primarily the remit of backpackers and travelling empty nesters looking for extended stays in primary residences.
