Why owners choose us
Anyone can list a property. Very few can run one properly.
Most short-stay managers compete on how many properties they can take on. We compete on how well each one performs. Here is the difference, in specifics rather than slogans.

Our people are specialist trained, not generalists
Every member of our team completes a specialist short-term rental management course costing $15,000. Short stay is a different discipline to long-term letting, and we treat it that way. The person looking after your property has been taught the craft properly rather than picking it up as they go.
We are an accredited part of the industry
Laurea Stays is a member of ASTRA, the Australia and New Zealand Short Term Rental Association, the peak industry body for the sector. We attend its annual events so our knowledge of regulation, compliance and best practice stays current rather than going stale.
We cap each manager at 50 properties
Short-stay management scales badly. Every extra property on a manager's desk is attention taken away from the others, and it shows up in response times, review scores and revenue. So we cap it. Each of our property managers looks after a maximum of 50 properties, which means your listing gets managed rather than merely monitored.
We learn optimisation from Airbnb directly
We attend Airbnb's official host workshops and hear from the people who build the platform about how listings are ranked, surfaced and optimised. That is guidance straight from the source, not guesswork from a blog post, and it goes into how we build and tune every listing we run.
Your listing inherits our Superhost standing
Our Airbnb hosting accounts hold Superhost status, currently 4.8 stars across 267 reviews. Superhost cannot be bought or applied for. Airbnb awards it on response rate, cancellation rate, rating and reliability, and reassesses it every quarter, so it has to be earned continuously. Because your property sits under that account, it carries that standing from the day it goes live instead of starting from nothing.
Proof, not claims
Airbnb Queensland Host Workshop — Brisbane, 20 August 2026
Plenty of managers say they stay current. These photos are from the most recent workshop, run by Airbnb themselves, where the platform’s team walks through what actually drives listing performance.
