Each guide is thoughtfully built to enhance the guest experience while highlighting the best of the Okanagan — from local restaurants and wineries to beaches, trails, and experiences that make each stay memorable.
This is a project-based service offered separately from co-hosting, designed for owners who want to stand out, improve guest satisfaction, and add a polished, high-end touch to their property.

FAQ

-
Not at all!
You always own your listing, your property, and have final say on anything important.
That being said, we’re best suited for owners who prefer a hands-off approach and want someone local to fully manage the day-to-day operations for them. Most of our clients come to us because they don’t want to be involved in messaging, pricing, turnovers, or guest issues and they just want the property to perform well.
-
Most properties are fully onboarded within 15-20 days, however design, guest experience upgrades, décor recommendations, and staging improvements may extend beyond this timeline, depending on the scope of enhancements and any physical changes to the space.
-
We respond very quickly, and we use automated messaging workflows and property management systems to handle most routine communication instantly including booking details, check-in instructions, and common questions.
This ensures guests always get immediate support, while we stay focused on high-touch communication and any issues that require real-time attention.
-
We act as the first point of contact for guests and help coordinate solutions quickly and professionally. A big part of STR success is handling issues calmly and proactively before they become negative reviews.
-
We’re intentionally selective with the number of properties we take on. We keep our portfolio small so we can stay hands-on with operations, maintain high guest experience standards, and ensure every property is performing well.
-
We use a combination of platform tools and booking signals to help ensure guests are a good fit for the property including reviewing guest profiles, prior reviews, and communication before and after booking.
-
If at any point you want to cancel our services, either party can end the agreement with 30 days written notice.
We keep things flexible and straightforward with no long-term lock-ins or complicated contracts.
During that notice period, we’ll ensure a smooth handover so everything continues to run properly for guests and there are no disruptions to bookings or operations.
