Vacation Rental Management, Simplified
Managing a short-term rental should be effortless. Find out how Vacay Pads handles everything, from guest communication to professional maintenance, so you can enjoy the rewards of your property without the stress.
The Big Picture
What exactly is "full-service" management?
Full-service management means we handle every aspect of your short-term rental. From listing creation and pricing to guest communication, cleaning, maintenance, and reporting, Vacay Pads manages it all so you can enjoy income without the daily responsibilities.
What exactly is "full-service" management?
Unlike large national companies, Vacay Pads combines professional systems with local expertise. We provide personalized attention to each property, maintain strong owner communication, and focus on maximizing both revenue and property care.
What kind of properties do you specialize in?
We specialize in single-family homes, condos, and vacation properties in high-demand Florida markets. Properties must meet operational and market standards to ensure strong occupancy and guest satisfaction.
Why should I trust you with my home?
Trust is built through transparency, consistent performance, and professional care. We provide detailed reporting, routine inspections, and a structured management approach, treating each property as a valuable investment.
Your Home, Our Priority
How do you keep my home clean and guest-ready?
Professional cleaning teams are scheduled after every stay, ensuring your property meets high standards. Our coordination guarantees timely turnovers so every guest walks into a spotless home.
What happens if a guest breaks something?
We handle all guest issues through clear policies and insurance coverage. Minor damages are repaired promptly, and any costs are covered either through our systems or the guest security deposit.
How do you prevent loud parties and neighborhood issues?
Guests are carefully screened, house rules are clearly communicated, and monitoring systems are in place. We address complaints immediately and maintain strong community relations to prevent disturbances.
Who handles emergency repairs at 2 AM?
Our local operations team and trusted vendors are available around the clock for emergencies. Any urgent repairs are managed promptly to protect your property and guest experience.
All Things Money
How much can I realistically expect to earn?
Revenue depends on your property type, location, seasonality, and demand. Our goal is to optimize nightly rates and occupancy so you consistently earn more than with self-management or traditional methods.
How do you set the nightly price for my home?
Pricing is determined using market data, seasonality, demand trends, and local events. Our dynamic pricing system continuously adjusts to maximize income while remaining competitive.
When and how do I get paid?
Owners receive payments on a regular schedule, with detailed statements showing income and expenses. Funds are typically transferred directly to your bank account for convenience.
Are there any "hidden" fees I should know about?
No. All management fees and optional services are clearly outlined upfront. Owners receive transparent reports so there are no surprises.
Marketing Your Space
Where will my property be listed (Airbnb, VRBO, etc.)?
We list your property across major booking platforms including Airbnb, Vrbo, and other high-traffic sites to maximize exposure and bookings.
Do you provide professional photography?
Yes. We use professional photography and, if desired, virtual tours to showcase your property in the best light.
How do you make my listing stand out from the competition?
We optimize your listing with high-quality visuals, compelling descriptions, SEO keywords, and accurate amenities. This attracts more guests and encourages higher booking rates.
How do you handle guest inquiries and screening?
All guest inquiries are handled by our team. We screen guests carefully, answer questions promptly, and manage bookings to ensure only responsible, suitable guests stay in your property.
It’s Still Your Home
Can I stay in my own home whenever I want?
Yes. Owners have full flexibility to use their property, block dates for personal use, and enjoy their home whenever it’s convenient.
How do I "block off" dates for my friends or family?
You can request specific dates through our owner portal or by contacting your Vacay Pads representative. We’ll update the calendar to prevent bookings during those times.
Is there a limit on how often I can use the property?
There is no strict limit. You can enjoy your property as often as needed, provided the dates are scheduled in advance to avoid conflicts with guest bookings.
Can I leave personal items in the house?
Yes. Owners may leave personal belongings in the home. We recommend storing valuables securely, but everyday items can remain for convenience.
Getting Started
What is the process to get my home live?
We start with a property assessment, onboarding, and listing setup. Once your property is optimized and ready, it goes live on all major platforms for bookings.
Do I have to sign a long-term contract?
Vacay Pads offers flexible agreements. Our goal is to provide excellent service and results, so many owners stay long-term by choice, not obligation.
How do I transition from my current manager to you?
We handle the full transition, including calendar migration, listing setup, and guest communication handoff, to ensure a smooth changeover without lost bookings.
What do I need to do to get the house "rental-ready"?
We provide a detailed checklist for furnishings, amenities, safety measures, and cleanliness. Our team can also assist with staging, smart-home setup, and any upgrades needed to make your property guest-ready.
Didn't find what you were looking for?
Just ask. Our team is real people, not robots.
