Case Study: High Rocky Homes doubles listings to 50+ and streamlines operations with Guesty

How These Two Friends Launched An Airbnb Business Prime For Today’s Outdoorsy, Digital Nomad, More Than Doubling Their Listings In Only One Year

High Rocky Homes, a Colorado short-term rental company founded by Nadim Tannous and Alex Haler, faced the dual challenge of rapidly scaling listings and adapting to new COVID‑era traveler demands (remote work, strong WiFi, and heightened cleaning expectations). To manage growth and automate time‑consuming tasks, they adopted Guesty’s property‑management platform to centralize listings and guest communications.

Guesty automated multi‑channel distribution, 24/7 guest messaging (check‑in/out and COVID updates), and analytics, effectively replacing the work of two full‑time employees and allowing High Rocky Homes to stay lean with a four‑person team. With Guesty handling operations, the company grew to 50+ listings in a year, reported revenue up 50% in June year‑over‑year, and achieved ADR gains of roughly 30–80% in new markets like Panama City Beach and Joshua Tree.
