Swiss Proptech Azuro Raises €5M For Co-Owned Vacation Homes

Initial developments are planned in Mallorca and the Alps with nine locations over the next two years and openings starting in 2026. By 2028, Azuro aims to deploy over €50 million across Europe’s prime leisure regions, creating a new real estate holding model for second-home buyers.

Amid tighter European short-term rental regulations Azuro offers co-ownership of compact, design-led homes for year-round use. Starting at €40,000 buyers co-own an entire two-bedroom portfolio across top destinations ensuring consistent availability and pricing near net asset value.

Azuro offers busy professionals hassle-free high-quality homes with easy access to outdoor activities and lasting value positioning co-ownership as a simple sustainable alternative to traditional holiday rentals.

Co-founders Jan Linhart and David Polacek said: “Azuro is for people like us, who want solutions that make life simpler, without the hassle of endless accommodation search or playing the vacation rental roulette. We’re building a network of sleek, compact homes that we would love to stay in ourselves. Azuro’s homes are designed for year-round use and located in natural settings across European vacation hotspots, giving buyers meaningful experiences and long-term upside.”

Robin Lauber, Co-founder of Infinitas Capital, commented: “Jan and David have built a model that responds directly to the pressures facing Europe’s second-home market. As traditional options are regulated out, what will survive are sustainable, locally aligned homes that are consistently occupied. This is the emergence of a new asset class at the intersection of real estate finance, hospitality and lifestyle, and one that reflects how the next generation want to live and connect.”

Daniel Bronk, Founder of Bronk Venture Capital, added: “Azuro’s offering reflects a fundamental shift in how people want to travel and own assets. Value-conscious buyers are moving away from inconsistent rentals and the rigidity of a single property, and towards ownership that is flexible, rooted in real asset value, and aligned with how they are used to living. Co-investing alongside Infinitas, we look forward to supporting a model that transforms how people think about, and respond to, second homes.”
