Results That Speak for Themselves

40%+ Direct Bookings

While most Airbnb managers rely entirely on Airbnb or VRBO, StayGainesville has built a robust direct booking platform that drives over 40% of our reservations. This means:

  • Guests pay less
  • Owners earn more (no 8–10% platform fees)
  • Repeat guests become loyal customers

Increased Revenue Per Property

When homeowners switch to StayGainesville from a co-host or DIY model, they typically see:

  • An average revenue increase of 25–30%
  • Fewer unbooked nights due to dynamic pricing
  • Better guest reviews, leading to more visibility and demand

We've helped owners grow from $2,000/month to over $6,000/month by optimizing listings, expanding marketing reach, and providing guest experiences that lead to 5-star reviews.

5-Star Guest Ratings

With a consistent average of 4.9–5.0 stars across platforms, our properties outperform on guest satisfaction. We treat each stay like a hotel-quality experience—complete with clear communication, clean and well-maintained homes, local support for any issues, and thoughtful touches like welcome baskets and local guides.

Great guest reviews lead to more bookings and higher nightly rates. It's a compounding advantage—and we help you earn it.

Properties We Specialize In

We specialize in managing:

  • 3+ bedroom homes with flexible layouts
  • Pet-friendly properties with fenced yards
  • Homes with pools or hot tubs
  • Homes near UF Health, Shands, and UF campus

These homes consistently deliver the highest occupancy, best guest ratings, and most repeat bookings in Gainesville's short-term rental market.

What Owners Say

"I used to self-manage our Airbnb. Between pricing, guest messaging, and cleanings—it was overwhelming. StayGainesville took over and I've never looked back. My revenue is higher, my stress is lower, and my guests are happier."

— Lisa M.

"I switched from a national chain that wasn't paying attention. With StayGainesville, I'm finally working with a team that knows my neighborhood and cares about my home."

— David S.
