YOU'RE FAR AWAY. WE'RE CLOSE BY.

Do you know how your apartment is doing?
without having to travel.

01 HOME TEAM

People are here for your apartment.

Cleaning, maintenance, communication with guests, and quality control are all coordinated here, with a clearly designated person in charge between stays.

02 DIRECT PAYMENTS

Airbnb payments go straight into your account.

Your apartment is managed through your own Airbnb account, and Airbnb deposits the funds directly into your bank account. Our fees are paid later. Each month, you receive an invoice detailing expenses and commissions, and each year, you receive an income statement showing the return on your investment.

The amount deposited by Airbnb does not yet deduct the apartment's expenses. Airbnb's payment schedules, refunds, and deductions still apply.

03 YOUR STAYS

Your apartment—for you, too.

We coordinate your stays based on the calendar and any existing reservations, and we'll have the apartment ready for your arrival. Please let us know 1 or 2 weeks in advance.

The monthly care fee continues to be charged during your stays.

BETWEEN A DEPARTURE AND AN ARRIVAL

Every outing has its own process.
And someone who reviews it.

Each step has a designated person in charge, and there is a final inspection before each arrival.

  1. 01

    Clean blanks

    The laundry service picks up the dirty whites and returns a clean set.

  2. 02

    Cleaning

    The cleaning crew cleans and prepares the apartment.

  3. 03

    Maintenance

    We address reported issues and perform routine maintenance.

  4. 04

    Final Inspection

    A quality control representative reviews the preparation and identifies what is missing.

  5. 05

    Welcome

    The guest arrives and checks in.

Some repairs take longer. An inspection helps identify problems, but it doesn't catch them all.

YOUR TEAM AT THE BEACH

the apartment behind

QUESTIONS FROM HOMEOWNERS

What
You're probably wondering.

Who receives the rental income?

You. Your listing operates through your own Airbnb account, and Airbnb deposits funds directly into your bank account. Our fees are paid later. Airbnb’s payment schedules, refunds, and deductions still apply, and the amount deposited by Airbnb does not yet include any expenses related to the listing.

Can I use my apartment?

Yes. We coordinate your stays with the schedule and any existing reservations. We ask that you give us 1 or 2 weeks' notice. If your family or friends use the space, you'll only be charged for the checkout cleaning. The monthly maintenance fee continues to apply during your stays.

Do I have to stay for 3 months?

No. You can cancel at any time, even within the first 3 months, with 2 weeks' notice and no penalty.

What does the monthly care plan include?

Routine maintenance, such as descaling showerheads and faucets, unclogging drains, and minor touch-ups, as well as inspecting the apartment and coordinating with service providers. Major repairs and specialized services, such as air conditioning, are quoted separately, and you approve them beforehand.

How do they handle the listing on Airbnb?

We handle the photos, listing details, pricing, reservations, and messages with guests. We review rates weekly and check reviews to make improvements. We do not promise rankings on Airbnb, occupancy, or income.

Do I have to decorate with you guys?

No. Decorating with COMPITE is optional and is priced separately. If the apartment isn't ready to rent, we'll let you know what's missing.

How much do they charge to manage my Airbnb in Playa del Carmen?

We charge 20% plus VAT on the accommodation rate, excluding taxes and Airbnb fees. There is also a monthly maintenance fee of USD 150 to USD 300, depending on the number of bedrooms, and a one-time setup fee of USD 700 plus taxes, which includes the photo shoot. The guest is responsible for cleaning costs.

How much will I make from my apartment?

It depends on the building, location, type, and decor, so we don't promise occupancy or income. What we do do is show you the numbers for the apartments we manage, such as Ipana C402, and review yours before accepting it. Every year, we send you an income statement showing the return on your investment.

Do you manage apartments that I didn't buy from you?

Yes, one-bedroom apartments and larger. First, we'll take a look at the apartment and let you know if we see potential for vacation rentals. If we don't see any potential, we'll let you know and explain what we would change.

What happens if there's an emergency at night?

We have an emergency protocol and a network of local service providers. In critical emergencies, we respond within 15 to 20 minutes, plus the time it takes for the service provider to arrive. Any issues that cannot be addressed at night due to condominium rules are resolved first thing in the morning.

Do you list the apartment on Booking or other platforms?

We focus primarily on Airbnb, because that's where most of the bookings in Playa del Carmen come from, and blocking the calendar on multiple platforms can reduce the listing's visibility.

What languages do they speak?

In Spanish, English, and French. Also in Portuguese and Italian, and a little German.
