We achieve real results.
Are you looking to partner with a team who will spend quality time taking care your property and your guests while actively generating bookings and keeping a firm eye on your bottom line?
If so, you’re in the right place.
Happier Guests. Higher Returns.
At Oceanstays, we do things differently. We maximise your returns, optimise your calendar and create a guest experience that drives repeat bookings and five-star reviews.
We’re a proactive and very hands on management service, and honestly, we should charge a lot more, but we’re highly competitive because we prioritise your bottom line.
“This business has emerged as a result of a need I had myself as a holiday home owner in Yamba. I was paying a lot for property management and not receiving the value or outcomes I expected in return.”
— Kristy McGrath, Principal (and owner of @burleighyamba)
