Keep More Revenue
A flat monthly fee per listing. We take no percentage of your bookings.
The Math Is Simple
A percentage fee moves every time your revenue does. A flat fee doesn't. On a property earning $4,000 per month, a 20% management commission costs $800 a month — more in a strong season, and more again next year if revenue grows.
The comparison below uses that single stated assumption. It is an illustration of fee structure, not a projection of what your property will earn.
Traditional Management
$800/mo
20% of $4,000 revenue
Vacohost Co-Hosting
$325/mo
Flat rate per listing — no commission on your bookings
This isn't about adding complexity. It's about a predictable cost and getting your time back.
Services You Can Mix & Match
Buy standalone or bundle with co-hosting for better pricing.
$225/mo
or $205/mo bundled
PriceLabs subscription, initial dynamic pricing setup, weekly rate adjustments, and custom pricing rules tailored to your short-term rental.
Rates are reviewed and adjusted weekly against your market, inside the floors and ceilings you set — rather than left static between seasons.
$299 one-time
or $279 one-time bundled
A one-time overhaul of your Airbnb listing — photos, title, description, and amenities — to improve conversion and revenue performance.
A one-time rebuild of the title, description, photo order, and amenities guests actually read, with a written summary of every change.
$129/mo
Add-on to any service
Full guest communication coverage on VRBO as an add-on to any Vacohost service.
Built for Burned Out Hosts Who Still Want Control
Self-Managing & Stretched Thin?
You're probably a great fit if:
- You manage 1–5 Airbnb listings yourself
- You're tired of answering messages at night
- Your response time is slipping
- You care about your reviews
- You don't want full-service property management
- You still want control over refunds, repairs, and decisions
Overpaying a Management Company?
Sound familiar?
- You're paying 20%+ of revenue to a management company
- You're not getting the hands-on attention your listings deserve
- You want professional support without giving up control — or most of your income
- You'd rather pay a flat fee than a percentage of every booking
We don't replace you. We support you — at a flat rate, not a percentage of your revenue.
Proof in Practice
We would rather show you exactly how the service works than quote an anonymous host. Here is what is defined in writing before you buy.
A defined scope, in writing
Guest communication, vendor coordination, review responses, and calendar oversight. What we do not do — cleaning, repairs, spending approvals — is written down before you buy, not discovered later.
Escalation rules you set
During intake you decide which decisions reach you and which we handle. Refunds, repairs, and pricing exceptions sit on your side of that line unless you move them.
You keep the account
We are added as a co-host. Your Airbnb account, your payouts, your reviews, and your guest revenue never change hands, so leaving is an access change rather than a migration.
A first-30-day stabilization review
Every new co-hosting client gets a structured review at the end of the first month: what came up, what we changed, and what still needs your decision.
Flat pricing, no commission
A published flat fee per listing per month. We take no percentage of your bookings, which means our fee does not rise because your revenue did.

How Onboarding Works
From sign-up to fully hands-off — here's what to expect.
Sign Up on Website
Choose your plan & complete checkout.
E-Sign Service Contract
Receive and sign a simple service agreement via email.
Onboarding Kickoff
Owner submits an intake form with listing details, preferences, and house rules.
Connect the Team
Owner joins a WhatsApp group with cleaner, handyman, and communications team — and adds us as co-hosts on Airbnb.
Messaging Begins
Once intake and platform access are complete, our guest messaging team begins answering messages within seven business days.
7-Day Activation Promise
Once your intake and platform access are complete, we'll be ready to begin guest communication within seven business days. If we're late, we'll credit you for the delayed days.
Your First 30 Days
What the transition actually looks like, week by week.
Week 1
Access and intake
You add Vacohost as a co-host and we complete intake: property access, house rules, vendor contacts, guest preferences, and the escalation rules that decide what comes to you.
Week 2
Guest communication stabilized
Our team is answering guests on your listing. We document the questions that recur for your property so answers stay consistent instead of improvised.
Days 15–30
Refinement and review
We refine workflows against what actually came up, then review with you: escalation thresholds, vendor handoffs, and anything worth changing.
Every new co-hosting client receives a first-30-day stabilization review. After that review, most owners step back to the decisions that are genuinely theirs — refunds, repairs, and pricing exceptions — while the team handles day-to-day guest communication.
Month-to-month with 30 days written notice to cancel. No setup fee and no long-term contract.
Still comparing the numbers?
What is property management costing you?
Two numbers is all it takes. A percentage-based fee grows every time your revenue does — a flat fee doesn't.
2 or more qualifies for the published multi-listing discount.
