Frequently Asked Questions:

Do you really “not lift a finger” as a host?

Our team takes care of every step of the process. We’ll arrange a professional photoshoot for your property, so that we can create a listing to showcase your property. From the moment you receive your first booking, we’ll take care of guest vetting, 24/7 guest communication, house-keeping, and maintenance. We’ll update everything to your digital dashboard, so you can stay in the loop and be as involved as you like.
