Questions, answered

Everything owners ask us

Still weighing it up? These are the questions we hear most. If yours isn't here, ask us on your free call.

Full-service management starts at 20% of booking revenue and is customized to your property - its type, location, portfolio size and the level of service required. It's all-inclusive: marketing and multi-channel distribution (Airbnb, Booking.com, Vrbo, Google Vacation Rentals and direct booking), AI-assisted dynamic pricing, 24/7 guest care, housekeeping and maintenance coordination, and your live owner dashboard. No setup costs, no hidden charges, and no long lock-in contracts - we only earn when you do. You'll get your exact rate on your free property assessment.

Never. It remains entirely your property. You can block dates for personal use anytime, set house rules, and view everything happening in real time through your owner dashboard. We handle the work; you keep full ownership and control.

It varies by property and market, but owners typically see a meaningful revenue uplift thanks to our dynamic pricing, professional marketing, and multi-channel distribution - often more than offsetting our fee. We'll build you a transparent, data-backed projection before you commit to anything.

Everything. Professional photography and listing setup, marketing across all major platforms, dynamic pricing, 24/7 guest communication, check-in and check-out, housekeeping, linen, restocking, maintenance, and detailed monthly reporting. You are truly hands-off unless you want to be involved.

Luminous manages short-term rentals worldwide - across North America, Latin America, Europe, the Middle East, Africa, and Asia-Pacific - with a special focus and deep local presence in the Caribbean. If you're unsure whether we cover your location, just book a call and ask.

It starts with a free, no-obligation consultation call. We learn about your property, answer every question, and share a tailored revenue projection. If it's a fit, we handle a seamless onboarding and get your listing earning - usually within a couple of weeks.

Payouts are made on a clear monthly schedule, with a detailed statement showing every booking, your earnings, and any costs. Everything is visible in your owner dashboard in real time, so there are never any surprises.
