Vacation Rental Management That Works

We help you get more bookings, protect your home, and finally relax with expert, hands-on vacation rental management.

Is this your vacation rental manager?

Managing your home shouldn’t feel like guesswork. But for many owners, that’s exactly what they’re dealing with.

There's a better way to manage your vacation rental

Your property deserves more than basic management. We bring expert strategy, proactive care, and personalized service — so you get real results and fewer late-night worries.

Performance

You earn more — and keep more — with higher occupancy, smart pricing, and low management fees.

Protection

You avoid expensive surprises — with proactive maintenance, quality guests, and trustworthy local oversight.

Peace of Mind

You stop worrying and free your time — we handle every detail so you can enjoy life without property stress.

We've spent a decade helping owners thrive

When owners switch to Open Road Stays, they tell us the same thing — they wish they had done it sooner.

Working with Open Road Stays has completely changed how I think about rental income. Their team is proactive, responsive, and genuinely cares about my property. I’m earning more and stressing less than ever before.”

David M.

I used to manage everything myself and was constantly overwhelmed. Since switching to Open Road Stays, the difference has been night and day. My calendar is full, my guests are happy, and I finally have my time back.”

Sarah L.

Owner since 2022

From the start, Open Road Stays made it easy to get my home listed and earning. Their strategy, communication, and support are top-notch. I feel confident knowing my investment is being managed the right way.”

Millions of views. More booked nights.

Next steps

Getting started is simple

We’ve streamlined the process so you can go from overwhelmed to earning in just a few simple steps.

See if you qualify

We work with well-located homes and great partners. Tell us about yours and we’ll quickly see if it’s a fit for our model.

Get a custom plan

You’ll get clear pricing, strategy, and communication — with none of the vague promises you’re used to.

Sit back and get paid

We take over everything seamlessly, so you can start earning more without missing a beat.

At Open Road Stays, we know you didn’t buy a vacation rental to manage problems — you bought it to enjoy the rewards. You want to be the kind of owner who earns solid income, trusts their property is cared for, and doesn’t have to think about the day-to-day. But when your property manager stops communicating, revenue drops, and issues go unchecked, it’s hard not to feel frustrated and left in the dark. That’s not how it should be. You deserve a partner who treats your home like their own and delivers results you can actually see. We’ve helped dozens of owners turn underperforming properties into high-performing assets — with better bookings, proactive care, and clear, responsive communication. Here’s how it works: see if you qualify, get your custom management plan, and sit back while we handle the rest. Let’s fix what isn’t working, so you can stop worrying — and finally enjoy owning a vacation rental again.

You have questions

We have answers

We keep pricing simple and aligned with your success. Choose between two flexible plans:

  • Lite15% management fee per booking

  • Standard20% management fee per booking

You’re only charged after a guest checks in. No setup fees. No long-term contracts. Just straightforward performance-based pricing. And with our Risk-Free Guarantee, if you’re unsatisfied in the first 6 months, we’ll refund your management fees — no questions asked.

Lite is great for owners who want platform support but are comfortable staying somewhat hands-on. It includes:

  • Listing setup on top platforms

  • Dynamic pricing

  • Guest communication (with your contact info shared as backup)

  • Booking coordination

  • Owner reporting dashboard

  • Risk-Free Guarantee

Standard includes everything above, plus:

  • 24/7 guest support — no homeowner contact required

  • Cleaning and maintenance coordination

  • Vendor oversight

  • Design consulting (with optional premium upgrades)

  • Tax-ready monthly reports

  • Transient occupancy tax filing and licensing assistance

Both plans help you earn more with less hassle — the difference lies in how involved you want to be.

We work with properties that are clean, well-maintained, and located in markets with consistent guest demand. Single-family homes, condos, and multi-units are all welcome as long as they’re guest-ready. During your onboarding call, we’ll evaluate your home’s potential and ensure we’re the right fit for your goals.

We craft high-quality listings with great photos and positioning, then distribute them across major platforms like Airbnb, Vrbo, and Booking.com. Our team monitors performance daily and adjusts pricing and visibility strategies to keep your home competitive and top-of-mind for travelers.

We use dynamic pricing technology that updates daily based on real-time demand, local trends, seasonality, and your home’s features. This ensures your home stays booked at optimal rates — maximizing revenue without leaving money on the table. With the Standard plan, you also get tailored revenue oversight and strategy refinement.

In the Lite plan, we manage core guest messaging like booking confirmations and pre-arrival instructions — but guests will also receive your contact information for direct communication if they need anything mid-stay. In the Standard plan, we manage all guest messaging and issues entirely, 24/7, so you never have to be involved.

Guests in both plans receive clear communication before check-in and guidance throughout the stay.

  • With Lite, guests may contact you directly if additional questions or issues arise.

  • With Standard, we manage everything — pre-arrival details, guest questions, in-stay support, emergency response, and post-checkout reviews — so your guests are taken care of, and you don’t have to lift a finger.

All plans are backed by our Risk-Free Guarantee. If you’re not satisfied within your first 6 months, we’ll refund all management fees paid during that time. There’s no long-term contract, so you can cancel anytime. We earn your business through performance, not paperwork.

Yes — you always control your calendar. Block off dates whenever you want, whether it’s for a weekend getaway or a long vacation. We’ll make sure your property is prepped for your arrival and smoothly transitions back to guest-ready afterward.

Once we confirm your home is a fit, we can typically launch your listing within 2–4 weeks. That timeline includes onboarding, photography, platform setup, and calendar activation. We’ll move at your pace and guide you through each step of the process.

Not with the Standard plan — we coordinate cleaning, maintenance, and local vendor relationships for you. If you already have providers you trust, we’re happy to work with them. Lite plan owners may choose to self-manage vendors or coordinate services independently.

We manage everything from coastal homes and condos to urban townhomes and multi-units. What matters is that the home is guest-ready, properly furnished, and in a short-term rental–friendly area. During your onboarding, we’ll determine whether your property is a strong fit for our model.

Yes. You can upgrade or downgrade between Lite and Standard anytime. Changes typically take effect within 15 business days. As your needs evolve, your plan can too.

With the Standard plan, yes — we handle licensing facilitation and file all transient occupancy taxes on your behalf. Lite plan owners are responsible for their own licensing and tax submissions, but we provide monthly reporting to support your tax filing process.

Yes. Our Standard plan includes basic design consulting and setup support — furniture layout, staging guidance, and amenity recommendations. For owners who want a more complete transformation, we offer premium design and furnishing packages for an additional fee.
