Vermont Vacation Rental Management
Property Preparation & Strategy
Property Walkthrough & Set-up Guide
I will visit your vacation rental for a comprehensive, in-person walkthrough, spending time in each space to evaluate everything from your arrival experience to sleep comfort and guest functionality.
Following the visit, you will receive a detailed set-up guide outlining recommended upgrades, amenities, and product suggestions designed to support a comfortable, five-star guest experience. This process helps ensure your property launches smoothly, photographs beautifully, and consistently meets guest expectations.
Competitor & Market Research
Access to STR data is one thing, interpreting it strategically is another. I combine industry data with a careful manual review of comparable Airbnb listings to provide a detailed overview of your local market and identify your most relevant competitors.
If your home is already listed on one or more booking platforms, I will analyze historical performance including occupancy, average daily rate, and revenue trends. These insights help guide thoughtful updates to your home and listing, ensuring they align with the expectations of your target guest while helping your property stand out in a competitive market.
This process supports stronger positioning, improved guest reviews, and long-term revenue optimization.
Pricing Strategy & Revenue Optimization
Building on detailed competitor and market research, I develop a custom 12-month pricing strategy tailored to your specific property, location, and target guest profile.
Your pricing strategy report outlines target average nightly rates for each month, carefully adjusted for seasonal tourism patterns, local events, and evolving demand trends. This approach helps establish realistic revenue benchmarks while ensuring your home remains competitively positioned throughout the year.
This strategy serves as the foundation for dynamic pricing and long-term revenue optimization, helping your property adapt to market changes while maximizing earning potential over time.
Marketing
Listing Set-up
I create a search-optimized Airbnb listing that accurately represents your property while highlighting the details that make it distinctive and appealing to your ideal guest.
Each listing is carefully crafted to showcase your home’s character, amenities, and overall guest experience. Strategic copywriting and thoughtful presentation help your property stand out in a competitive market while improving visibility in Airbnb search results.
I will also coordinate photography for your property, either by capturing and editing images myself or recommending a trusted professional photographer for an additional fee.
Branding & Logo Design
I design a custom logo that reflects your vacation rental’s location, character, and overall guest experience. Thoughtful branding helps create a cohesive, distinctive identity across guest-facing materials and digital resources, making your property easy for guests to recognize and remember.
Airbnb Co-Hosting
Once your home is thoughtfully prepared, strategically positioned in the market, and launched to attract the right guests, ongoing management ensures that performance, guest experience, and property care remain consistent over time. Splendid Host provides comprehensive co-hosting support designed to deliver a seamless experience for both owners and guests.
