2. Guest Communication and Booking Management

The management company handles all guest inquiries, booking confirmations, and communication before, during, and after guests’ stays. They respond promptly to inquiries, provide information about the property and local area, and ensure a smooth booking process.

Management companies take care of the entire check-in and check-out process for guests. They coordinate key exchanges, provide detailed instructions on accessing the property, and ensure a seamless arrival and departure experience.

At CrownBNB we always strive to make check-ins and check-outs hands-free and very simple for guests, which they absolutely love!

4. Cleaning and Maintenance

Professional management companies arrange property cleans between guest stays to maintain cleanliness and hygiene standards. They also coordinate any necessary repairs or maintenance work, ensuring that the property is well-maintained and any issues are addressed promptly.
Our cleaning services go beyond just a clean. We provide fresh triple-sheeted linens on all beds, guest towels and even hotel-style amenities. This ensures a premium product every time and also means property owners don’t need to worry about purchasing linens for their homes.

That’s because a skilled team of experts are constantly adjusting the rate based on 100’s of different factors to maximise the potential revenue. The management company monitors market demand, analyses competitor pricing, and adjusts your property’s rates accordingly to maximise occupancy and revenue.

Guest support is a 24/7 job in short term rentals! Professional managers provide round-the-clock guest support, ensuring that guests have assistance whenever they need it. They handle inquiries, address concerns, and provide guidance during the guests’ stay to ensure a positive experience.

8. Reporting and Analytics

Property owners are generally provided a monthly statement which shows bookings and revenue generated. This may be a fairly basic report or it could include a lot more information such as expenses and projections etc.

Here at CrownBNB we provide all owners a login account to our hosting system. This allows owners to see all bookings in the calendar as well as easily book themselves dates they would like to stay at the property. We also provide monthly statements. All of this is free-of-charge and part of our premium service.

9. Additional Services:

Some management companies may offer additional services such as professional photography, interior design consultation, supply management (e.g., toiletries, linens), and other value-added offerings to enhance the guest experience and property presentation.

As a premium full-service holiday property management company, here at CrownBNB we provide all properties with these services. Professional photography is done during the on-boarding phase as well as providing any advice regarding interior design. Then between stays our property managers and professional cleaning team are providing hotel-style linens as well as amenities for guests.

By entrusting these responsibilities to a professional management company, property owners can benefit from their expertise, experience, and resources while enjoying a more hands-off approach to Airbnb hosting.
