Dreaming of owning a vacation property that also generates income? Condotel loans make it possible to enjoy your own slice of paradise while letting someone else handle the bookings and guest services. With LendSure Home Loans, financing a condotel is straightforward and flexible, providing you with the opportunity to benefit from premium amenities and rental income—all in one.
What is a Condotel?
A condotel, or condo-hotel, weaves the ownership benefits of a condominium with the convenience and services of a hotel. Located in high-demand tourist destinations, condotels offer private ownership of individual units within a hotel-operated property. Owners can enjoy access to amenities like pools, fitness centers, and concierge services.
Plus, condotel units can be placed in a hotel-managed rental program when not in use, providing a hands-off way to generate rental income and maximize the unit’s value.
Why Invest in a Condotel with LendSure’s Condotel Loans?
LendSure Home Loans’ condotel loans open the door to flexible investment opportunities, offering key advantages that go beyond traditional property ownership. Condotel owners may be able to generate income effortlessly by leveraging hotel-managed rental programs—no need for self-marketing or guest management.
Beyond potential financial returns, owners benefit from access to resort-style amenities that may enhance property value and offer memorable stays. Whether used as a personal getaway or a revenue-generating asset, condotels offer unique flexibility and appeal in today’s real estate market.

What Is Not Eligible for Condotel Loans?
Certain types of projects are not eligible for condotel loans through LendSure Home Loans. Projects that restrict the owner’s ability to occupy the unit are not eligible, as well as those with mandatory rental pooling agreements that require unit owners to either rent their units or give control over occupancy to a management firm.
Projects with non-incidental business operations owned or operated by the homeowners’ association, such as restaurants, spas, or health clubs, do not qualify. Common interest apartments and timeshare or segmented ownership projects are also ineligible, as are multi-unit dwelling condos that allow an owner to hold title to more than one dwelling unit under a single deed financed by a single mortgage. Finally, units that lack a full-size kitchen are excluded from eligibility.
