The Registry Collection® Web site Provides Glimpse of the Finest in Luxury Vacation Exchange

Press Release: The Registry Collection®
May 26, 2006
PARSIPPANY, NJ -- The Registry Collection®, the world’s largest luxury exchange program, has introduced a new Web site (www.theregistrycollection.com) to showcase its expanding services for the high-end luxury leisure assets market.

Representing luxury leisure travel at its finest, The Registry Collection program offers its members top-of-the-line accommodations at some of the world’s premier destinations as well as members-only access to a myriad of personal concierge services that are available 24 hours a day.

“Membership in The Registry Collection exchange program gives travelers the ability to enjoy all of the comforts of home as well as magnificent amenities and high class service,” said Kenneth N. May, chairman and chief executive officer of the RCI Global Vacation Network, which offers The Registry Collection exchange program. “We have hand-selected the residences that are part of this portfolio and each one represents the very best in terms of construction, décor, surroundings, activities and overall experience.”

On The Registry Collection Web site, visitors can browse luxury accommodations by the specific name or locale, or search for properties by type of destination – from coast, countryside and lake to metropolitan and mountain. There are also options to view residences that match areas of interest, such as skiing, golf or spa services. In addition, the site provides a photo gallery for each property and Web site visitors can watch unique, narrated videos that provide an in-depth tour of particular properties. (The Registry Collection provides the professional photography and videography as part of the benefits of becoming an affiliate.)

The Web site is intended to provide a thorough look at the entire portfolio of options within The Registry Collection, and it also lists regional contact information for The Registry Collection program so members can call and receive personal assistance in the reservation process.

With more than 11,000 members and growing, The Registry Collection exchange program caters to the expanding luxury vacation market. Properties are located throughout North America, Latin America, Europe and South Africa. Affiliations in Asia and Australia are expected to be coming soon.
