Before you choose

How to choose a holiday home manager in Melbourne

  1. Check what is included

    Ask for a written list: listing and photos, pricing, guest messages, cleaning and laundry, maintenance, owner statements. Extras such as linen, consumables or repairs are often charged on top.

  2. Compare like-for-like fees

    Get the fee model in writing (a percentage of booking revenue, a fixed fee, or both) and ask what it is a percentage of: gross bookings, or revenue after platform fees and cleaning.

  3. Ask about local rules

    A good manager in Melbourne knows the local licensing, permit and tax rules and can tell you what applies to your property.

  4. Look at portfolio size and focus

    A manager with a handful of homes may give you more attention; a larger one may have more staff and marketing reach. Ask how many homes each property manager looks after.

  5. Read reviews and check credentials

    Look for owner reviews, not just guest reviews, and a claimed or verified profile. Ask for references from owners with similar homes.

  6. Read the contract

    Check the minimum term, notice period, who owns the listing and reviews if you leave, and how and when you are paid.

Fees

What holiday home managers in Melbourne charge

Percentage of revenue
The most common model: the manager keeps a share of each booking's revenue. Full-service management costs more than marketing or booking-only help.
Fixed fee
A flat monthly or per-booking fee, sometimes used for guest-communication-only or co-hosting services.
Fixed fee plus a percentage
A lower percentage with a fixed set-up or monthly fee on top.

General guide, not data from the managers listed here: few have published their fees on VRM Atlas yet. Ask each manager for a written quote.

Owner questions

Holiday home managers in Melbourne: questions owners ask

How many holiday home managers are there in Melbourne?

VRM Atlas lists 21 holiday home managers serving Melbourne (October 2026), including companies based in Camberwell, Richmond and Balaclava. The list is ordered by profile evidence (completeness, owner reviews, verification and responsiveness), never by payment.

How much do holiday home managers in Melbourne charge?

Most charge a percentage of booking revenue, a fixed fee, or a mix of both, and the rate depends on what is included (cleaning, linen, maintenance, pricing and marketing). Few managers in Melbourne have published their fees on VRM Atlas yet, so ask for written quotes: you can request up to five at once, free.

How many homes does a typical holiday home manager in Melbourne look after?

Of the 21 managers that publish a portfolio size on VRM Atlas, the median looks after 14 homes and the average 29 homes.

What does a holiday home manager do?

A full-service manager markets the property on booking sites and its own website, sets prices, handles guest messages and check-in, arranges cleaning, laundry and maintenance, and sends the owner regular statements. Some offer only part of this (for example guest communication or co-hosting). This is also called holiday rental management, short-term rental management or Airbnb management.

How do I choose a holiday home manager in Melbourne?

Compare what is included, the fee model and what it is charged on, local knowledge of Melbourne's rules, portfolio size, owner reviews and the contract terms (minimum term, notice, who keeps the listing). Shortlist three to five and ask each for a written quote.

Which booking software do holiday home managers in Melbourne use?

The booking software most often detected on these managers' public websites is Hostaway (48%), Beds24 (29%) and Guesty (19%). Detected on public websites, not market share.

Do managers pay to be listed or ranked on VRM Atlas?

No. Every public manager is listed for free and the order is based on profile evidence only. Paid placement, where it exists, is a separate slot labelled "Sponsored" and never changes the order.

Can I get quotes from several holiday home managers in Melbourne?

Yes. Describe your property once and choose up to five managers to ask for a quote. It's free for owners, and managers reply to you directly.
