Professional holiday rental management that protects and grows your investment
You didn't buy a holiday rental or an investment property to spend your weekends responding to guest messages, coordinating cleaners or worrying about compliance. You bought it to grow your wealth, and to enjoy more time at your property with the people who matter most.
That's where we come in
Holiday Rental Specialists is Australia’s largest independently owned short-term rental management company. We take the operational weight off your shoulders so you can enjoy the rewards, without the daily grind.
We’re the only managers to guarantee claims against guests up to $500*, meaning no horror guest damage for you to deal with. Absolute peace of mind.
* Applies only when the owner has appropriate insurance coverage in place. Exclusions apply, including but not limited to damage to high-value items.
When you partner with us, you’re backed by systems that work at scale, and a team that treats your property like their own.
We come up on page 1 on Google search for ‘holiday rentals’ – no other manager comes close.
We're not just managers, we're partners
Unlike residential property managers who dabble in holiday rentals, we do one thing and one thing only: short-term rental management. Every system, every team member, every investment we make is focused on maximising your property’s performance.
The difference you will notice:
- We know guests and what they want
- We know how to set up a property to attract maximum occupancy
- We use the best styling and photography contractors
- Your property is marketed to 60,000+ engaged guests
- Our dynamic pricing technology delivers real-time rate optimisation
- Every home meets our unwavering standard: beautifully styled, fastidiously maintained, immaculately clean
- You get a dedicated local team who knows your property and your market
- Fixed housekeeping fees and outsourced linen service with no upfront outlay - no surprises, you know what returns to expect
The Holiday Rental Specialists advantage
We don't guess what your property should earn, we use data. Our dynamic pricing technology adjusts rates in real time based on demand, seasonality and local events. The same technology hotels and airlines have used for years, now working for your investment.
The result: Owners typically see income increases of 30% or more compared to self-management.
Your property deserves to be seen. Our team of digital marketing experts ensures your listing stands out across every major platform- Airbnb, Stayz, booking.com, and our own direct booking channel.
