Vacation condos are timeshares that, as one might suspect, are condominiums. They combine the benefits of the condo in question (swimming pool, spa, proximity to the beach, kitchen, bedrooms, bath) with the ease with which you'd check into a hotel. Essentially, renting vacation condos is like renting an incredibly nice apartment for your vacation.
Let's say that seven people went in on a condo timeshare. They've got this sweet place all set up, which they can visit X number of weeks per year. Let's say that everybody's on a fixed schedule, which means that they have the same weeks reserved every year. Person A has the first week of January. Person B has the third week of June, and so on.
How Vacation Condos Work
For the weeks left open, which surround everyone's fixed schedules, it just makes sense for people like these to turn their sweet place into a vacation condo. Here's another way that it can play: Person A decides that, this year, they would rather vacation on the Riviera. They have a friend with a share of a Mediterranean timeshare.
Person A and his Mediterranean pal may decide to trade off vacation condos, spend that first week of January in each others places, instead of their own. So long as the two places are of relatively equal value, this is an incredibly good deal. This further reveals why so many people get into timeshares in the first place.
