Imagine owning a stunning vacation home—without the hassle

Picture this: You're unwinding in your own luxury vacation home, taking in the breathtaking red rock views of St. George or just steps away from Newport Beach on Balboa Peninsula. There's no stress about maintenance, no endless to-do list—just pure relaxation.

Sounds like a dream, right? With Ember, it's a reality.

For many, owning a second home feels out of reach. Between high costs, upkeep, and the challenge of maximizing use, the idea often stays just that—an idea.

But Ember's modern co-ownership model is changing that, making luxury vacation homeownership accessible, affordable, and effortless.

What is Ember co-ownership?

Ember allows you to co-own a luxury vacation home with a small group of 2-8 like-minded buyers.

Instead of shouldering the entire cost and responsibility, you own a portion of the home—between 1/8 and 1/2—giving you access to it throughout the year. It's true homeownership, not a timeshare.

Each home is fully managed, beautifully designed, and ready for you to enjoy from day one. You get all the benefits of owning a high-end vacation home without the burden of maintenance, property management, or underutilization.

Luxury without the full price tag

Why pay millions for a vacation home you'll only use part-time? With Ember, you invest only in the share you need, making high-end vacation homeownership significantly more affordable.

Turnkey, fully managed homes

Forget about maintenance, cleaning, or scheduling repairs. Ember takes care of everything, so all you have to do is show up and enjoy your time away.

True ownership

Unlike a vacation rental, an Ember home is a true real estate asset that can appreciate over time. Unlike a timeshare, you own the real estate that you can sell later.

Easy scheduling with the Ember app

Booking your time in the home is effortless with Ember's intuitive app. Simply reserve your dates in advance, ensuring fair and flexible access for all owners with peak season guarantees.

What actual Ember owners are saying

"Our Ember home in St George has been such a fun getaway for my family! We were able to get into our home for a fraction of the cost of buying our own outright. It has been a perfect fit for me and my family!" - Matt C.

"We love, love our Ember! We've used it for everything from quiet weekends with just the family to fun getaways with friends, big reunions with extended family, and even girls' trips. The best part is that while it feels like our dream home when we're there, we don't have to think about it at all when we're not. We've made so many special memories and celebrated countless moments together at our Ember home. We couldn't be happier with our decision to own one—it's truly our happy place!" - Ashley A.

"We absolutely love the co-ownership model with Ember! We can actually enjoy vacationing instead of worrying about all of the property maintenance. The property is professionally modeled inside and out. Yet it completely feels like our second home. Not to mention they have a concierge that is SO helpful in making it a great stay." - Scott C.
