Why Night Away
More nights booked, all year round
Most managers on the coast insist on minimum stays through winter. Our team can turn over single nights, so your calendar keeps filling when others sit empty. Over school holidays we tighten minimums to maximise revenue.

FAQ
Questions owners ask us
What's included in the 17% fee?
Everything in our front-to-back service: listings across Airbnb, Booking.com and Stayz/VRBO, guest communication and screening, 24/7 support, cleaning coordination, maintenance, trust-account management and weekly statements.
Can I still use my property myself?
Yes. Book your own stays any time around existing guest bookings. We take no commission on owner stays. Only the cleaning for that stay and the weekly calendar fee apply.
How and when do I get paid?
Booking income is held in our trust account. We deduct the management fee and any approved expenses, then pay the balance to your nominated account, with a written statement showing every booking, fee and expense.
Who's responsible for insurance and approvals?
Owners insure the property and contents, including public liability cover suited to short-stay letting, and hold any council or body-corporate approvals. We'll help you get these sorted. We carry our own insurance for our management services.
What happens if a guest causes damage?
We screen every guest before accepting a booking. If damage happens, we claim through the booking platform's host-protection programme first, then insurance, and manage the whole claim while keeping you informed.
