/ Partnered Stays

Independently owned.Curated by Lively.

We don't manage these homes. We promote them - to our guests, our database, and the audiences we've built across five years of curated short-stays. 14% + GST. No upfront cost. No lock-in.

/ The model

Owned by them.
Promoted by us.

/ How it works

Partnered Stays are independently owned, self-managed properties. Lively does not run the keys, the cleaners, the pricing, or the on-site experience.

What we do is promote and market them. Each home is reviewed against the Lively standard before it joins the collection - then we put it in front of the audience we've built: guests, our subscriber list, social, and editorial partners.

We send you bookings. You host the guest, keep the rest, and stay in full control. We take 14% + GST, less than the big booking platforms, with no guest fee on top.

/ What we bring

An audience, a standard, a stage.

01 - Audience

Five years of guests.

Your home lands in front of a database built across hundreds of stays - guests who already trust the Lively eye.

02 - Curation

Standards, not a directory.

Every Partnered Stay is reviewed before it's listed. The collection stays small on purpose.

03 - Promotion

Editorial, social, owned.

Your home is featured across the channels we already run - the site, the newsletter, social, and editorial features.

/ The deal

Lower fees. Better coverage.

Commission

14% + GST

The big platforms charge professional hosts roughly 15.5% + GST, then add a guest fee on top. We don't.

Coverage

Up to $50,000*

Property damage coverage included on every eligible booking. Most platforms offer nothing close.

Upfront

$0

No listing fees, no monthly minimums. You pay nothing until a booking is made.

Lock-in

None

No exclusivity. Works alongside your other booking channels or an existing manager. Just keep availability synced.

*Property damage coverage applies to eligible bookings only. Eligibility, terms, and limits apply.
