Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
Operating a holiday home successfully is hard work and requires experience. Engaging a highly competent management company will pay for itself in increased utilisation and revenue.
Happy Holiday Homes is a full service holiday home management company - handling marketing, finances, guest service (pre/during/post stay), cleaning and maintenance issues on your behalf. We care for your home, you relax.
Happy Holiday Homes will do all the set up for you. This includes a complimentary professional photography package, all the text and creative work and marketing across Airbnb and other leading booking sites.
Airbnb recognise their top performing hosts that have consistently high ratings, quick response times and dedication to outstanding guest experience by awarding them Superhost status.
Superhost hosted homes have better visibility and are more likely to be chosen by guests. These homes average a 5% higher occupancy rates compared to homes without Superhost status.
This increased demand translates to more bookings and more revenue – how much more?
About $7,000 per year more based on our achieved average nightly rate of $400 for a three bedroom home. Insist on a Superhost!
Google Vacation Rentals is a new part of Google’s suite of travel search products, designed to help guests easily find and book accommodation through search, maps and travel options.
Happy Holiday Homes will add your home to Google Vacation Rentals. You are unable to do this yourself as Google won’t work with individual home owners. Note that not all management companies have the technology to work with Google either...
Why does it matter? Google Vacation Rentals currently do not charge any commission. So although there are still costs (technology and payment processing) these are far smaller than the commissions paid to Airbnb, Stayz, etc. Bottom line is more exposure, more bookings at low cost - so you make more profit.
The City and Busselton brought in some 'new' rules in July 2022 - most of which weren't new at all... The highlights are no guests of guests after 10pm (Happy Holiday Homes don't allow this anyway), no pets to be left unattended (or this) and some internal and external signage (which we can arrange free of charge to you).
The next phase is to insist on a response time of 12 hours to any issue - a bit pointless in our opinion, as guests and neighbours would understandably want issues solving a lot faster than that!!!
Every home is different, but we’re happy to provide a ballpark figure based on similar properties if you’d like to get in touch.
