Case Study: Guesthoo scales from 5 to 60 properties and boosts client profitability with Hostfully

How a short term rental manager scaled his portfolio from 5 properties to 60 and increased profitability for his clients - without hiring additional staff

Guesthoo, a short-term rental management company run by Will Asbury in Cornwall and Devon, struggled to scale beyond a handful of properties while relying on spreadsheets, manual guest messaging, and ad hoc cleaning coordination. After finding a clunky PMS that didn’t automate key tasks, Guesthoo turned to Hostfully and its property management system (Hostfully PMS) to address multi-channel distribution, automation, and direct booking needs.

Using Hostfully’s PMS — including automated guest messaging, event-based triggers for cleaners, a direct booking site widget, and integrations like Beyond Pricing — Guesthoo scaled its portfolio to 60 properties within two years without hiring extra staff. Hostfully’s automation cut guest-communication time by about 90%, reduced vacancy through multi-channel listing, simplified cleaning and turnover workflows, and increased profitability for Guesthoo’s clients.
