Q: Why is ownership at Les Saisons more desirable than purchasing a second home?

A: Instead of spending a large sum of money on a second home you are likely to use only a few weeks a year, ownership at Les Saisons gives you care-free vacationing, personalized service and worry free management of your property; all at a significantly lower cost than ownership of a year 'round second home.

Q: What are the special benefits of ownership?

A: The primary benefits of ownership are economics, exclusivity, equity and ease. This is a product that absolutely makes economic sense. Unless you are among the superwealthy (or even if you are) it is very difficult to rationalize paying for 100% of an asset which you may only use 10% of the time. Through co-ownership you not only pay for just the fraction of which you own, you also pay only a fraction of the annual operating expenses.

Unlike a large condominium development or a timeshare resort, a very limited number of individuals will share ownership in a very limited number of luxuriously furnished, richly appointed private residences. Les Saisons offers an aire of luxury, exclusivity and service found only in a five-star resort or in a private home. And we offer the best of both. There is a sense of pride, a sense of achievement, a sense of belonging that comes with equity ownership in Les Saisons. Rather than continuing to rent accommodations for your Sun Valley vacations, ownership in Les Saisons becomes an asset that you and your family can use for generations.

It's easy to enjoy your precious vacation time from the first minute of the first day. From the moment we pick you up at the airport, or you pull into your reserved underground parking space, everything is taken care of. No concern about fouled up arrangements. No time spent getting settled in a strange environment. No time spent on unfurnished maintenance projects. This is what vacations should be like.

Q: What do I own?

A: You are purchasing a real estate interest in a residence in Les Saisons. Technically this is an undivided, one-eighty ownership interest as tenants-in-common in one of the twelve residences along with common areas. This is evidenced by a free simple deed. Also included is an exclusive right to the use of the residence during a specified number of weeks pursuant to established reservation procedures.

Q: How often can I stay at Les Saisons?

A: Owners can stay at the property as often as they wish based on availability and in accordance with the Reservation Procedures. Each owner can reserve in advance (5) planned weeks per year in the following manner: Two weeks in the Winter / Spring, two weeks in the Summer / Fall and one additional week in either Winter / Spring or Summer / Fall. Once the planned weeks are confirmed for that upcoming season, owners can then reserve additional time on a Space Available basis at a fee of $150 per stay. There is no limit to the amount of time owners can stay at Les Saisons. Only 40 of 52 weeks of the year can be reserved through planned weeks.

Q: Can I stay for consecutive weeks?

A: Yes. Owners may request to spend two or three weeks consecutively using their Planned and Optional week reservations. Also, space permitting, owners can request to add a Space Available reservation to an existing Planned or Optional Week reservation or request consecutive weeks with only Space Available reservations. In addition to consecutive week stays, space permitting, owners can use more than one residence simultaneously for family reunions or large gatherings.

Q: What is a "fee simple deed"?

A: A fee simple deed is the type of tile you have on your home. It allows you to sell your property whenever and in whatever manner you choose. You may gift it, will it, or sell it at any time. It is the simplest, cleanest form of property ownership.
