Short-term rental interior design and guest management

Turning your home into a holiday let

What's involved

Your operator registers the home for a Dubai Department of Economy and Tourism (DET) holiday home permit, furnishes and photographs it, and lists it on Airbnb, Booking.com and other channels. They also manage pricing, check-ins, cleaning, maintenance and the Tourism Dirham fee.

What our partner handles:

DET permit and compliance
Interior design and furnishing
Dynamic pricing and channel management
Guest communication, check-in and cleaning
Maintenance and monthly owner statements

Buying a property to use as a holiday home

Not every building or community allows, or suits, short-term letting. We'll check the building's rules, the demand in that location and realistic occupancy before you buy, and model the return against a standard annual let.
