What we do for you

Everything your mountain cottage needs

From the first listing to the last guest’s key handover. All you need to do is review regular reports and our monthly service invoice.

Listings that catch guests’ attention

We create and manage listings on Airbnb, Booking.com, e-Chalupy and other channels. Mountain photography, descriptions that work in winter and summer, and calendars without double bookings.

Pricing for snow and holiday demand

We continuously adjust prices to the weather, snow conditions, school holidays and public holidays. A winter week and a summer weekend each have their own value, and we keep track of it for you.

Guest communication whenever needed

We usually reply within fifteen minutes, including evenings and weekends. We handle late arrivals after a day in the mountains, special requests and any complaints.

Check-in that suits your guests

We provide contactless check-in using our smart key safe for a one-time fee of approximately EUR 119.60 (CZK 2,990; EUR 1 = CZK 25) in addition to commission. Guests receive a one-time code before arrival and can let themselves in whenever they arrive, seven days a week. Only Carefree also offers an in-person key handover and welcome by prior arrangement with the owner. In either case, we advise guests where to ski, eat and how to light the stove.

Cleaning, linen and a ready-to-light stove

After every stay, we clean, change bed linen and towels, and replenish firewood. We use damask-style bed linen. We prepare the stove for lighting so guests arrive at a ready home where they immediately feel welcome.

Snow clearing, minor repairs and seasonal preparation

We clear snow at the entrance and on the driveway, handle minor repairs and arrange heating maintenance. In spring, we prepare the cottage for summer.

Care between stays

Damask-style bed linen

We use damask-style bed linen for our guests. With Comfort and Carefree, we arrange washing and replacement of linen and towels after every stay.

When peak season ends

Local partner packages and quieter dates

The mountain peak season lasts around four months. We make sure renting remains worthwhile during the rest of the year too.

Packages with local partners

We know local rental shops, ski schools, saunas and restaurants. We recommend what suits each guest’s dates and, on request, book at rates agreed with our partners. You do not have to organise anything, and guests enjoy a fully arranged stay.

Quieter dates and longer stays

The mountains offer much more than winter: hiking, cycling, mushroom picking and tranquillity in spring, summer and autumn. We adjust prices and stay lengths to make long weekends and family weeks worthwhile, with local trip suggestions included with each booking.

Our approach to guests

Guests seek authenticity, not a hotel formula

People want a home with character: wooden floors, the scent of a stove, snow outside and an evening just for the family. This is the authenticity guests seek, and the reviews of our properties show it is also what makes them return.

A personal approach also means touches no manual can capture: a handwritten welcome note on the bed, chocolate for the children or bread from the local bakery. Guests feel not that they have arrived at a rental, but that someone was expecting them.

Authenticity also means helping guests like a local. We recommend cross-country trails, the best traditional kyselo soup and slopes suited to their skiing level. Guests remember these touches more than an amenities list, and you benefit through good reviews, repeat visits and recommendations.

Extra benefits

More than listings and cleaning

Marketing that makes your cottage a place guests want to book, leaving fewer empty weeks in the calendar.

Listings on all major channels

We manage your Airbnb, Booking.com and e-Chalupy listings and keep calendars synchronised to prevent double bookings.

Photography and copy for both seasons

We arrange winter and summer photos of your property and descriptions that work just as well in December as in July. Professional photography is included in the Carefree plan.

Making guest feedback count

We monitor reviews and guest feedback and use them to improve the listing and amenities. Good ratings support both prices and search visibility.

Bookings beyond peak season

Packages with local partners and adjustments to prices and stay lengths help keep your cottage booked in spring and autumn too.

Clear, understandable reporting

Every month you see occupancy and average nightly rates compared with similar cottages in the region.

Owner benefits

Block dates for your own stays at any time, try another property in our portfolio, and benefit from discounted cleaning and maintenance.

How it works

From enquiry to regular income

Five steps to leaving the day-to-day running to us. The first bookings usually arrive within two weeks of launching the listings.

01

No-obligation meeting and initial estimate

We visit your cottage or apartment in the mountains, or work from photos and a layout you send us. Within 48 hours you receive an annual income estimate covering winter and summer.

02

Preparation and photography

We arrange winter and summer photos, listing copy and recommendations for improvements that encourage positive guest reviews. Professional photography is included in Carefree; for other plans we use your existing photos or arrange a shoot by mutual agreement.

03

Operations and communication

We take over enquiries, bookings and all guest communication. Airbnb and Booking.com payments go straight to your account, while we handle operations, including evening and overnight questions. Before arrival, guests receive travel and accommodation instructions; Comfort and Carefree also include a one-time smart key safe code.

04

Cleaning, snow and maintenance

Between stays, we clean, change linen and prepare the stove for lighting. We clear snow and check the heating and the condition of the property after guests leave.

05

Reporting and invoicing

By the fifth day of each month, you receive an income and expense report and our service invoice. Booking revenue goes straight to your account; we charge only a commission on accommodation.

Commission

Pay only for the bookings we manage

Commission of 15–25% of gross revenue, depending on the services included. Booking revenue goes directly to your account, and we invoice our commission monthly, with no setup fee or monthly retainer.

Testimonials

What our property owners say

„What I appreciate most is that they take care of the snow and prepare the stove. Guests arrive at a ready cottage, and we no longer have to drive across the country to arrange it."
PPetra H.apartment owner, Harrachov
„They adjust prices to the season and demand, so our cottage in Bedřichov stays booked even outside the main winter season. Útulna really is cosy :D."
