How We're Different
We're Not Just Another Airbnb Manager
Most holiday let management companies do the same thing: list you on Airbnb, take their commission, and hope for the best. We take a fundamentally different view.
At Full Bed Hosts, we're a boutique hospitality partner. We start by understanding who your ideal guest is — then build your property's brand, marketing, and guest experience around attracting exactly that person. Over time, our goal is to help your property grow beyond a simple listing — with its own brand, its own direct booking website, and a more loyal returning guest base.
Working With Us
How It Works
Virtual Pre-Visit Conversation
We start with a phone and email discussion so we can get to know you and your property. You can send photos and key details, and we'll answer questions, offer guidance, and help you understand the next steps. There's no pressure, and this stage is free.
Contracts & Onboarding
Once you decide to proceed, we move into due diligence, ID checks, and contract signing. This is often handled remotely. Where suitable, we'll arrange a property visit, but some owners — including those living further away or abroad — complete this stage entirely remotely, which we're very used to.
Full Property Setup
We prepare everything needed to launch your property professionally. This can include photography, image editing, listing creation, copywriting, branding, direct-booking website creation, risk assessments, and any other setup support needed to give the property its own strong identity.
Launch & Go Live
Once everything is ready, we launch the property across the appropriate channels and make sure it is live, bookable, and presented at the right standard from day one. This is the point where all the preparation comes together and the property officially enters the market.
Ongoing Full Management
Once live, we handle the day-to-day management: guest communication, logistics, cleaning coordination, maintenance support, and the ongoing work needed to keep standards high. We're always reviewing, refining, and improving the guest experience.
Regular Feedback & Monthly Statements
You'll receive clear updates and itemised monthly statements so income, occupancy, and maintenance spend are easy to track. If you're on our website package, we'll also keep refining the site and its SEO over time in response to performance and market changes.

What Our Guests Say
Authentic 5★ reviews from real Airbnb guests
Lovely, homely cottage, in a quiet location and pleasant surroundings. The sitting room is particularly cosy, with the log burner. The cottage is nicely decorated, the kitchen well-equipped and the beds comfortable. Communication from James, the co-host, was great! We really enjoyed our short stay — thank you!
