A Vilamoura-based marketing and revenue partner for short-let owners. We only make money when your property does.
We work in one place. Every listing we write is by someone who knows the streets, the beach clubs, the golf courses and what a UK family versus a German couple actually books for. Local copy sells better than templated copy.
€250 per property to get you live everywhere, then €30/month per property while listed plus 20% only on the bookings we generate. No minimum, no invoice in a quiet month beyond the monthly fee. If we don't fill your property, you only pay the monthly fee.
Your property, your cleaner, your pool tech, your utilities, your licence. We handle bookings and guests; you keep everything else. No lock-in on providers, no hidden markup on maintenance, no surprises on your statement.
We started Vilamoura Properties because we saw too many owners paying expensive setup fees, locked into long contracts, and handing control of their homes to managers who did not even live nearby.
We run marketing, distribution, dynamic pricing, guest operations, Portuguese fiscal compliance (SIBA, Modelo 30, tourist tax, INE, COPE) and reporting for your short-let. Owners keep the physical property and its providers — cleaning, pool, maintenance, utilities, insurance, the AL licence and the annual IRS. Our team is based here in Vilamoura, so the copy, the pricing and the guest handling are local, not templated.
Owners and agencies willing to monetise apartments, villas and houses in Vilamoura and surrounding areas.
The property must be in good condition, hold all necessary local accommodation licences, and meet minimum quality requirements to ensure good guest reviews.
One short contract, one flat €250 setup per property. We collect the property details, your photos (or arrange new ones separately if you want them), your calendar, and the operational contacts on your side — cleaner, pool tech, key-holder.
Within seven days your property is live on Airbnb, Booking, VRBO, Expedia and its own direct-booking page. Copy written for each channel, pricing calibrated to the Vilamoura market, calendars synced so you never get double-booked.
We handle enquiries, confirmations, guest questions and check-in coordination with your local team. Every month you get a clean statement: bookings, gross revenue, our 20% commission, your payout.
