Inspirato Club vs. Pass: Key Differences You Need to Know

As a current Inspirato Pass member, I also have access to the Inspirato Club program, which has some of the same benefits but is a very different program from Pass.   If you want access to Inspirato properties and services but don’t want to commit to a full pass membership, this might be a good option for you to consider. 

To help you better understand the program and decide, I have written this article to provide an overview of the Inspirato Club program, how it works, and how it is different from the Pass Program (which is detailed in our In-Depth Inspirato Pass Review article).

Inspirato Overview

Let’s start by understanding Inspirato. Inspirato (NASDAQ: ISPO) is a luxury vacation company offering exclusive luxury vacation rentals and travel experiences via a monthly subscription model.

The Inspirato portfolio of properties includes multi-million dollar vacation homes, rooms, and suites at five-star hotels and resorts.

What is Inspirato Club and How Does it Work?

Inspirato Club is a monthly luxury travel subscription that allows you to book travel within the Inspirato property portfolio.

Inspirato Club subscribers can access the full Inspirato Collection of exclusive homes, hotels, resorts, and experiences by paying members-only nightly rates when they travel.   

The Inspirato Collection includes Inspirato vacation homes, which are available exclusively to our members and guests, top luxury and boutique hotels and resorts, and custom travel experiences.

Club members receive first-class, personalized service from a team of hospitality experts, from pre-trip planning to an on-site concierge. Every Inspirato trip includes complimentary first-class personalized Inspirato service, with pre-trip planning, an on-site concierge, and daily housekeeping at no additional charge.

How much does Inspirato Club cost?

Inspirato Club membership costs are:

1. Inspirato Pass Membership: $2,550 enrollment fee + $2,550 monthly subscription payment
2. Inspirato Club Membership: $15,000 one-time initiation fee and first-year annual dues. The Annual dues of $5,500 are payable beginning with the second-year renewal.

Jaunt Trips – Discounted Luxury Travel

Through the Inspirato Club program, you’ll have access to Jaunt 52 and Jaunt Now. Jaunt trips are significantly discounted trips that are emailed to members every Wednesday morning.

Jaunt Now offers member-only trips to the portfolio that are available in the next 60 days and can save you up to 60% or more.

Jaunt 52 offers discounts on more than 100 pre-selected trips from the Inspirato Collection available each week. These member-only vacations are booked on a first-come, first-served basis and can be scheduled up to one year in advance.

Inspirato Luxury Hotel Partners

Inspirato offers both homes and hotels through the program. There are two ways to book a hotel with Inspirato.

One method is to book through the Pass or Club program with an Inspirato partner hotel.

Inspirato Collection Hotels & Resorts

Inspirato has partnered with over 200 luxury hotels and resorts, giving you access to some of the most exclusive hotels in the world.

These include amazing properties with five-star brands such as Rosewood, One & Only, Park Hyatt, Ritz Carlton, Montage, Como, and St. Regis as well as a collection of independent and boutique hotels.

Hotels Outside of the Inspirato Collection

If you’re looking for a luxury hotel that has not partnered with Inspirato, you can still book through Inspirato via their partnership with Virtuoso.

In this situation, Inspirato will act as your travel agent, helping you book a room, with a Virtuoso rate that includes bonuses like a room upgrade (if available), breakfast for 2, early check-in / late check-out, and possibly some resort and dining credits.

Inspirato Club vs. Pass: What‘s the Difference?

Before we get into the differences, let’s start with what is the same:

• Club and Pass members have access to the entire Inspirato portfolio of properties, including homes, resorts, and experiences.
• Club and Pass members can access a personal care team with pre-trip planning assistance and on-site concierge service.
• Both memberships include daily housekeeping at no additional charge.
• Both give the flexibility to cancel at any time.

Now let’s talk about how they are different:

• A Club membership only gives you access to the portfolio. You will have to pay the nightly rate, taxes, and fees for each trip
• A Pass membership includes “Pass Days” which are applied to the cost of each trip. (Nightly rates, taxes, and fees are included for all Pass Trips)
• A Club member can book a property at any time, while a Pass member has to wait until their pass is available. (That said, since a Club membership is included with a Pass membership, a Pass member can book a paid stay via Club even when their Pass is in use).
• Club members have access to Jaunt52 and JauntNow discounted trips. Pass days cannot be used for these trips, so this is truly a part of the Club program.

Who is Inspirato Club good for?

Inspirato Club is good for travelers who want access to luxury homes vetted by Inspirato and include high-end concierge services. It is also good if you are interested in the Pass program but want to give it a test drive first.

While the Club program offers discounted hotel rooms, it is not a great value for those who just want to stay at hotels and resorts, where they still have to pay nightly rates and taxes. 

The real value is in the homes, where you bring your family and friends with you on your Inspirato vacations.
