Description

Solstice offered three membership options for access to its unique ultra luxury homes. The top "Sky" membership offered 56 days of advance bookings (up to 8 months in advance) and unlimited bookings within 75 days. At the other end of the spectrum the Signature membership offered 14 days of advance booking and unlimited bookings within 45 days, for an initial membership of $615,000 and annual dues of $34,000.

The 15 properties included the fully crewed 90ft yacht Solstice I which tours the Caribbean in winter, the Bahamas in spring and fall, and New England's coast in the summer. Most of these luxurious homes also have a luxury car on property.

The club filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy in early 2009. See the articles below for more details.
