Introduction

An Airbnb management service is a company that manages Vacation Rentals (homes) on behalf of an owner, including services such as: meet and greet, cleaning, check-out, ad creation and communication with guests, etc.

In fact, although we're talking about Airbnb management services, we could equally talk about short-stay management services, holiday lettings management services, short-stay management services or even 2.0 management services to refer to our trade. Indeed, for the most part, we don't only rent through Airbnb, but also on a range of platforms that have emerged over the past few years. And while our trade was less reliant on the internet in the past, it still existed well before Airbnb.

Expertise

Our potential clients approach us for two main reasons: to rent out their property during the holiday season without managing short-term rentals themselves, or to have their home fully managed on platforms like Airbnb. We handle the entire rental management process, saving them time and effort. Listing on Airbnb often requires delegation since property owners are typically not available on-site.

Our service helps them secure holiday season bookings without the hassle of self-management. Additionally, we focus on creating rental value by utilizing professional photos, dynamic pricing, and advertising on multiple platforms. Our goal is to maximize rental incomes by generating more bookings at higher prices, going beyond logistics to provide added value.

Cost

On average, an Airbnb management services' costs ranges between 18% - 35% of the rate per night. On top of this are the fixed fees (e.g. cleaning fee) that will be added to each reservation and which are intended to cover the logistical costs. These fixed fees are generally passed on to the guests. At Iconic Retreats, each property is designated a fee schedule depending on the revenue potential and the difficulty involved in generating a booking.
