Being part of the Leisure Portfolio Association (LPA) opens up a world of travel opportunities, from exclusive Resort stays to discounted getaways. Whether you’re a seasoned traveller or someone looking to take more regular holidays, LPA’s membership offers fantastic flexibility and options to make your dream vacations a reality. Here’s how you can maximize your LPA membership and get more out of your travel adventures, year after year.

1. Take Full Advantage of LPA Explorer

If you’re someone who loves holidays but prefers not to commit long-term, the LPA Explorer is a game-changer. With subscription options starting at just R668/month for 7,000 Explorer points annually, LPA Explorer gives you access to a wide range of holiday options. You can use your points to book holidays at stunning local and international Resorts of your choice.

With the flexibility to top up your points or save them up for a bigger trip, you’ll find that LPA Explorer allows you to plan holidays around your budget without any stress. The ability to manage your subscription online makes it easy to track your points, book holidays, or even exchange them through LPA’s platform.

2. Use the LPA Options Exchange Pool

As an LPA member, you get automatic access to LPA Options, the exclusive exchange pool that connects you to some of the world’s largest exchange companies, such as RCI and 7Across. This allows you to explore an array of vacation options across the globe, without being tied to specific Resorts.

The LPA Options portal makes it simple to find availability, search for great deals, and select the perfect vacation for you and your loved ones. Plus, with low exchange fees and the ability to book holidays worldwide, you’ll never run out of exciting places to visit.

3. Take Advantage of EXTRAordinary Escapes

LPA members enjoy the bonus perk of EXTRAordinary Escapes—exclusive, discounted holiday bookings available on a cash-only basis. These extra breaks let you enjoy spontaneous vacations throughout the year, whether it’s a long weekend, midweek escape, or an entire week of relaxation. The best part? These escapes are available at extraordinarily low prices, meaning you can get more holidays more often.

4. Secure Your Guaranteed Vacation Every Year

One of the biggest perks of LPA membership is the guaranteed week of your choice every year at a stunning Resort. Whether you’re looking for a beachside retreat or a family-friendly Resort, LPA ensures you can enjoy an annual vacation at the destination you love. The ability to bank, rent, or exchange your week through LPA’s platform offers even more flexibility, giving you the option to swap locations, upgrade your stay, or even rent out your week to earn income.

5. Enhance Your Vacation with Vacation Boosters

Booking your holiday with LPA goes beyond just accommodation—members can pre-book holiday essentials such as meal vouchers, spa treatments, and game drives before you even arrive. This service allows you to plan the details of your vacation ahead of time so that when you check-in, all you need to do is relax. Be sure to explore the Resort-specific offerings available to you, which can enhance your stay and make it a more enjoyable experience.

6. Utilize the LPA Dashboard for Hassle-Free Management

LPA’s Dashboard is a member-exclusive platform designed for convenience. From booking and banking to renting or exchanging your week, everything is available at your fingertips. Whether you’re at home or on the go, this easy-to-use platform helps you manage all aspects of your membership in one place.

7. Renew and Save with Long-Term Benefits

When your 24-month LPA Explorer subscription period is up, you have the option to renew on a month-to-month basis at a reduced rate of 35% of the market-related rental rate. This means you get even more value for your subscription while enjoying a 15-year guarantee of vacations at your chosen destination. You can continue to enjoy the benefits of your membership, ensuring you have access to incredible travel opportunities year after year.

8. Get Rental Income Through GoMelo

LPA offers its members the opportunity to earn rental income through GoMelo.co.za. By renting out your holiday week, you’ll receive the retail value of your holiday, minus a small commission. It’s an excellent way to offset some of your travel costs, or to help fund future holidays, giving you even more flexibility with your membership.
