Short-Term Rental Property Management in Miami

Let’s Get Started

Maximize Earnings. Relieve Stress. Create Passive Income.

Many vacation rental owners don’t realize how much revenue they’re leaving on the table by trying to self-manage their properties. Without the right systems, experience, or bandwidth, even the most well-meaning hosts can struggle to keep up with the demands of a successful short-term rental. Running a thriving rental requires delivering a seamless and satisfying guest experience, which takes ongoing effort and specialized knowledge.

Owners who downplay the importance of proactive communication, timely upkeep, calendar coordination, and digital marketing often find themselves making missteps that prove costly over time. These errors can accumulate quickly, leading to subpar guest reviews and unfavorable ratings, which can seriously tarnish a property’s online reputation.

When a rental gains a history of negative experiences or poor feedback, it becomes much more difficult to draw in new guests. As bookings decrease, so does income—eventually turning what started as a high-potential opportunity into a low-performing investment.

In Miami, the idea of owning a vacation rental sounds like the perfect source of passive income—until you’re the one dealing with the daily demands. Managing a short-term rental in such a competitive market requires constant oversight and nonstop effort.

From guest relations to keeping up with reservations, the responsibilities pile up quickly. To keep your rental visible, booked, and profitable, you also have to handle tasks like:

  • Responding to inquiries, reviews, and guest concerns—around the clock
  • Managing your calendar and ensuring smooth check-ins and checkouts
  • Crafting and updating listings to stay relevant in search results
  • Adjusting nightly rates to reflect seasonal shifts and local demand
  • Taking care of property tasks like spa cleaning, pool servicing, and general maintenance

That’s where Five Star Properties comes in. We help Miami owners eliminate the stress by fully managing every detail of their vacation rental. Our team focuses on increasing your earnings, boosting your reviews, and restoring the passive lifestyle you originally envisioned.

Full Service Advertising

Bringing in an experienced marketing expert to manage your vacation rental listing can significantly boost your revenue—far more than most DIY approaches allow. While it may seem easy to write a description, snap some photos, and upload the listing to popular platforms, this shortcut rarely delivers strong results. Often, the loss caused by low-performing listings isn’t noticed until weeks—or even months—of bookings are missed, and by then, thousands in potential income may already be gone.

That’s why our team takes a comprehensive and strategic approach to every listing we manage. We use professional photographers to capture your property in the best possible light, highlighting every unique amenity and space. Then we craft compelling, accurate listing copy that clearly communicates the guest experience.

OAfter the listing is polished and approved, we distribute it across leading rental platforms and enhance its reach with tailored social media campaigns. This ensures your property stands out in front of a broad audience of travelers actively searching for vacation stays just like yours.

We apply proactive methods like targeted fumigation and discreet trap placement to minimize risk and interrupt pest activity before it spreads. During inspections, our team also checks for vulnerable entry points—such as cracks in walls or gaps near doors—that may need sealing or repairs to prevent access.
