Who this is for
You want to host it yourself. You just don't want to learn everything the hard way.
- You want to host your property yourself but don't know where to start
- You've started setting up and it's taking over your evenings
- You're already listed but bookings and reviews aren't where they should be
- You live elsewhere and need someone on the ground to get it done
Most new listings don't struggle because of the big things. They struggle because of the missing wine opener, the dark photo of the lounge, and the guest who couldn't find the Wi-Fi password at 11pm.
We sort out all of it.
What we can help with
Everything between "I should list it" and your first five-star review.
Part one
Get the place ready
Inventory sourcing and placing
We put together a full inventory list, source it and set it up in place. Linen, kitchenware, towels, cleaning supplies, the lot. Nothing forgotten, nothing overspent on.
Deep clean
A proper top-to-bottom clean before your first guest arrives, so you start with a clean slate and a standard to keep.
Photography
We organise the shoot and style the property beforehand. Photos are what get the click, so this is where we don't cut corners.
Part two
Get it online
Listing creation
We write and build your listings, including descriptions, house rules, amenities and pricing setup.
Calendar syncing
We connect your listings via iCal, so a booking on one platform blocks the dates on the others and you cut the risk of double bookings.
Part three
Make it run smoothly
Guidebook and welcome guide
A clear, friendly guide covering check-in, Wi-Fi, appliances, house rules and local recommendations. Fewer questions for you, a better stay for them.
Automations
Automated messages for booking confirmations, check-in instructions, mid-stay check-ins and checkout reminders. The basics happen without you picking up your phone.
Choose the full setup, or just the pieces you need.
Why work with us
We set up homes for guests every week. Yours gets the same treatment.
We know what guests notice, what they complain about, and what earns five stars. We save you time, we save you the expensive trial and error, and we bring years of experience to getting your property right from day one.
How it works
Four steps from empty to booked.
Chat
Tell us about your property and what you need. We'll come and have a look.
Quote
We send you a clear proposal based on your property and the services you choose.
Setup
We get to work: sourcing, cleaning, styling, photographing and building your listings.
Go live
Listings go live, calendars are synced, and you're ready for your first booking.
Pricing
Every property is different, so pricing is on request.
Send us a few details about your space and what you'd like help with, and we'll come back to you with a quote.
Questions
The things people usually ask first.
Do I have to take the full package?
No. Pick the services you need. Some clients just want the listings done, others want us to handle everything from the first teaspoon.
Do you manage the property after setup?
This service is for hosts who want to run their own property. If you'd rather hand it all over, we also offer full-service management. Just ask.
Which areas do you cover?
We're based on the South Peninsula and work mainly across Cape Town. Get in touch and we'll let you know if we can help.
Is iCal syncing instant?
No. It updates on a delay, so there's a small window where a double booking can slip through. For busy listings on several platforms, we'll talk you through whether a channel manager is worth it.
