Airbnb Property Renovations

In the short term rental market, your property’s design and condition directly dictate your nightly rate and occupancy. A strategic renovation is not just about aesthetics; it is about maximising the “earning potential” of every square meter. At Stayhub, we provide expert guidance on which upgrades will deliver the highest return on investment. By partnering with our sister company, Porter Property Services, we offer a seamless, end-to-end renovation experience that transforms dated spaces into high-performing, 5-star guest retreats.

PROPERTY SETUP & LAUNCH

Airbnb Property Renovations

Renovating a short-term rental requires a different approach than a standard home renovation. The focus must be on durability, guest appeal, and “photogenic” features. Through Porter Property Services, we provide a dedicated team of builders, painters, and designers who specialise in the hospitality sector. Whether it is a kitchen refresh, a bathroom overhaul, our in-house team handles it all. Because we manage the property and the renovation team, we can ensure the project is completed with minimal “calendar downtime,” getting your property back on the market and earning revenue faster than any external contractor could.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do you decide what needs renovating?

We start with a data-driven ROI analysis. We look at similar properties in your area and identify which features command the highest rates, such as a modern kitchen or an outdoor entertaining area. We only recommend renovations that we believe will significantly increase your nightly rate or occupancy.

Do I have to use Porter Property Services for my renovation?

While you are free to use your own contractors, our owners prefer Porter Property Services because they are “Airbnb-literate.” They know the exact standards required for our premium partnerships, and they prioritise Stayhub projects to ensure your property is back online as quickly as possible.

Can I stay in my home while the renovation is happening?

This depends on the scale of the work. For smaller “refreshes” like painting or new flooring, we can often work around your schedule. For larger kitchen or bathroom remodels, it is usually best for the property to be vacant. Our team at Porter Property Services works efficiently to ensure the property is removed from the rental pool as quickly as possible.

Will a renovation help me get into the Marriott collection?

Absolutely. Homes & Villas by Marriott International has very specific design and quality requirements. If your goal is to move into this exclusive luxury tier, we can design a renovation plan tailored to meet those global brand standards.

TESTIMONIALS

Hear From Our Owners

Stayhub are a godsend! They don’t just look after my properties, they make sure my booking calendars are always full; something my previous manager could never achieve. I can now relax knowing my investments are working for me.

Stayhub manage our apartment in Auckland that we rent out when I'm not using it for work. They do a fantastic job of managing guests and keep the apartment immaculately clean and tidy. They offer a very personalised service, which really works for us as our apartment is not available full-time. I would highly recommend Stay Hub to manage your property.

As a first-time short-term accommodation owner, I was looking for a company that could take care of my property and all of the responsibilities. I will say Stayhub have performed above my expectations. From cleaning to booking to host management, they have a very well-oiled machine. Take note, it takes a few weeks to grow bookings and reviews. Highly recommended.

I have only just listed my apartment with Stayhub, and I am impressed with the way that everything was handled. I am also deeply impressed with Stayhub obtaining 23 days over 4 customers. Keep up the good work

The team at The Stay Hub are fantastic, and I can highly recommend them. Stanley has been an absolute pleasure to work with. He is so proactive with any query or concern I may have, and is a great communicator, which I really appreciate. If you are looking for a professional short-term accommodation management company to look after your property, Stayhub is the way to go.

Enjoy working with Stayhub; they are really professional to deal with, and it's been a "set and forget" experience. Thanks to Stayhub for presenting our property to such a high standard of cleanliness.

THANK YOU STAYHUB - YOU ARE THE BEST From the moment they answered the telephone, I knew that Stayhub was the company that I wanted to list my apartment with for short-term stays. Stayhub have been amazing, so professional and efficient from the first clean and set up to the last. Nothing was ever too much trouble, and if there was a problem, it was dealt with immediately. If you are looking for a company that cares and takes all your worries away,y then this is it. Thank you, Stayhub. I am more than impressed with you and your guests.
