How do condo hotels differ from timeshares?
With timeshare ownership, you are typically allotted a few weeks a year to use your unit and the allocation is usually the same period every year unless you trade your time with someone else in the program. Under condo hotel ownership you own your unit and can normally use it whenever you want. Furthermore, when you’re not using the unit, the hotel operator can rent the room and you share in the revenue it generates. Timeshares are often difficult to resell, even if the seller is willing to take a big loss. Once you buy one, you pretty much own it forever, whether you want it or not. In contrast, the limited condo hotel inventory and high-profile operators are factors considered by many to have generated considerable interest in this hot commodity. Condo hotels may have a high probability of appreciating over time and are usually readily resalable. As a result, industry experts consider condo hotels to be a better investment than timeshares.

8. How do fractionals differ from condo hotels?
Both offer luxurious accommodations and services for the person seeking a vacation home. The condo hotel, however tends to be an individual room or suite located within a major hotel. Fractionals can be condos, townhouses, or single-family homes located in an exclusive community.
