The new Inspirato Select is designed for both the leisure and business traveler. Subscribers can choose 3 trips per year from a list of more than 500,000 trip options in 150+ destinations, for an annual fee of $24,000 inclusive of all nightly rates, taxes, and fees.

This is the third luxury travel subscription from Inspirato and can be thought of as fitting between the original Club membership and the newer all-inclusive Pass program. There’s a broad comparison of the three programs lower down in this article.

Over 500,000 Trip Options

Inspirato Select subscribers can choose 3 trips from a list of more than 500,000 trip options in 150+ destinations, including Inspirato residences, luxury hotels, and five-star resorts.

Inspirato Select Trips are 100% transferrable and may be shared with others at no additional cost. This gives subscribers the flexibility to use their subscription in a wide variety of ways: They can enjoy their Select Trips themselves or gift them to family and friends. They can also use Select Trips for their businesses to motivate, reward, and retain top-performing employees, thank key colleagues and partners, and hold off-site retreats.

After booking their three trips, subscribers may then purchase packages of additional trips whenever they like. Inspirato Select also provides all the benefits of the Inspirato Club subscription, including access to book a la carte travel within Inspirato’s portfolio at members-only rates with five-star personalized service on every trip.

Examples of actual trips from the Inspirato Select trip list include:

• 4 nights in a multimillion-dollar four-bedroom residence at a luxury resort in Los Cabos
• 14 nights at a 5-star resort in Deer Valley, Utah
• 7 nights in a 3-bedroom ocean view villa in the British Virgin Islands
• 10 nights in a Junior Suite at a Relais & Châteaux hotel in the heart of Florence
• A long weekend in a five-star penthouse in New York City

The Inspirato Select pages let subscribers search through the options, with various selection criteria. In a few more example searches, SherpaReport found nearly 9,000 options for a 5-night stay, for 6 people in a 3-bedroom home. And over 300 options for a 7-night stay, for 8 people in a 4-bedroom home. And over 50,000 options for 7+ nights for 2 people.

“We have been preparing for the launch of Inspirato Select by accelerating the growth of the Inspirato portfolio to record levels over the past year,” said Co-Founder and Chief Executive Officer Brent Handler. “With incredible pent-up demand, now is the right time to introduce this simple, cost-effective solution designed to help consumers leverage the power of Inspirato travel in all areas of their lives. And as our most flexible, shareable subscription to date, we believe Inspirato Select will enhance the built-in network effect of our business model by introducing the distinctive Inspirato luxury travel experience to a broader audience of travelers.”

As a special introductory offer, for a limited time, new subscribers will receive a fourth complimentary Inspirato Select Trip at no additional cost. Packages of Inspirato Select Trips are also available to current Inspirato subscribers as an optional enhancement, priced at four trips for $20,000.
