Expert Airbnb & Holiday Let Management in Warwickshire.  

At Red Kite, we specialise in managing holiday homes and Airbnb properties. Our comprehensive services ensure your property performs optimally on platforms like Airbnb, Booking.com, Expedia, VRBO, and our direct booking site. From tailored services to professional guest support, we make hosting hassle-free while maximising your rental income.

We proudly serve a wide range of areas in and around Warwickshire, including Stratford-upon-Avon, Warwick, Leamington Spa, Henley-in-Arden, Alcester, Kenilworth, and the surrounding towns and villages. This covers the historic market towns, charming countryside, and cultural landmarks that make Warwickshire a sought-after destination. Whether your property is a stylish apartment in Leamington Spa or a characterful cottage near Stratford-upon-Avon, we’ll ensure it reaches its full potential on booking platforms.

Many owners in Warwickshire choose a management company to save time and maximise income. With constant demand from visitors, whether for theatre breaks in Stratford-upon-Avon or historic tours in Warwick, competition is high. By working with us, owners typically earn more while doing less, thanks to our expertise in dynamic pricing, listing optimisation, and delivering the five-star guest experience that keeps calendars full.

Our service covers all the essentials of running a holiday let: 24/7 guest support, professional cleaning and laundry, dynamic pricing, multi-platform listings on Airbnb, Booking.com, and VRBO, and regular property inspections. We also coordinate maintenance with trusted local contractors, giving owners complete peace of mind that their homes are well cared for.

We begin by getting to know you and your property, ensuring we understand your unique needs and goals. Once both parties agree to proceed, we’ll arrange an onboarding meeting at your property.

During this meeting, we’ll document key details, take professional photos, and start preparing your listing which we will then set up on the various platforms, keeping in mind the nuances for each to ensure maximum exposure for your property. From there, we handle everything from communicating with guests to making sure your property is set for its first booking.

At the start of every month, you’ll receive a detailed invoice summarising the previous month’s performance. This includes all income from bookings that checked in during that month, minus any operational costs (e.g., cleaning, maintenance) and our management fee. Payments are transparent and straightforward, giving you a clear view of your property’s financial performance without any guesswork.

We manage a wide range of properties, from one-bedroom apartments and town-centre flats to spacious six-bedroom family homes and countryside retreats. Our portfolio includes stylish apartments in Leamington Spa, historic townhouses in Warwick, and cosy cottages near Stratford-upon-Avon. Warwickshire homes are especially appealing to guests, with the area offering world-class theatre, historic castles, and lively cultural events. This variety makes local properties ideal for everything from weekend breaks to extended family holidays.

We use professional photography, optimised listings, and dynamic pricing to keep your property competitive. Guests also receive our digital guidebooks with local recommendations for restaurants, pubs, cultural highlights, and attractions. This helps secure five-star reviews, repeat bookings, and high occupancy across the year.

Our comprehensive service means you can enjoy the benefits of owning a holiday let without the hassle.

Allowing pets can significantly widen your target market and increase income potential, particularly in the countryside. However, we understand that some properties may not be suitable for pets and we will make sure this is clear to guests when this is the case. Whatever you decide, we can set your home up with this in mind and optimise towards attracting bookings that meet your requirements.

Generally speaking we would not advise permitting stag or hen parties to ensure minimal disruption and maintenance, unless your property is specifically well suited to this market. We can discuss your preferences and advise you on how to manage your property effectively.

Properties with hot tubs can be popular and can generate higher revenue, however they are not essential and do require more maintenance. Our experienced team is used to working with all sorts of properties offering a vast array of amenities. We are here to make sure that all properties achieve the best returns possible - hot tub or not!

We manage all housekeepers, cleaners, and maintenance staff in-house to ensure the highest standards for your property.

Our team also handles all maintenance requirements, either through our in-house experts or trusted contractors, addressing any issues promptly to keep your property in excellent condition all year-round.

We list your property across all major booking platforms, including Airbnb, Booking.com, Expedia, VRBO, and more. We use dynamic pricing technology to maximise your income and ensure your property is competitively priced all year round. Our team optimises your listings with professional photography, high-ranking descriptions and a variety of platform-specific techniques to increase the visibility of your home and attract more guests on each booking channel.

We train our housekeepers to identify any damage during changeovers. In the rare instance of guest damage, we deduct the necessary funds from the guest’s damage deposit to cover repairs, ensuring your property remains in excellent condition.

Of course! Our owner portal allows you to block out dates for personal use or to accommodate friends and family. You remain in full control of your property’s availability.
