Hausera plans €4m conversion of Villamartín hotel into tourist apartments

Real estate investment platform Hausera has announced plans to convert a former hotel in Villamartín, located in Orihuela Costa, into 29 tourist apartments. The company's first project in Alicante province will involve a €4 million investment and is expected to take around 15 months to complete. The 1,060-square-metre building will be renovated to include communal areas, a swimming pool, and parking spaces.

Hausera emphasizes that the project aims to repurpose an existing tourist property rather than construct new buildings or convert residential homes. The investment opportunity will be available through Hausera's crowdfunding platform, with pre-sales set to begin on October 19, with a minimum investment of €100. The company forecasts a total return of 15% over the project's duration, or an annualised return of 12%, although these figures are targets and not guaranteed.

The property is situated near Villamartin golf course, approximately two kilometres from La Zenia Boulevard, and three kilometres from the beach. Hausera highlights the golf and international tourism in the area as factors that help attract visitors beyond the summer season. According to the company, Orihuela had 357,229 overnight stays in 2024, with 74% of them coming from international visitors.

Additionally, the Costa Blanca saw over 1.2 million overnight stays in tourist apartments in July 2026, along with an annual property-price growth of nearly 8% in Villamartín.

These figures demonstrate the demand and potential for investment in the area. Hausera states that the Villamartín project is just the beginning, as the company plans to announce several more operations in Alicante province before the end of 2026. The investment platform specializes in financing property acquisitions and renovations before marketing the completed developments.
