For Hosts & Homeowners
At the settled stay we partner with hosts, homeowners and select property managers to elevate the experience of arriving and settling in – through thoughtful preparation, concierge-style support and details tailored to each home and its guests.
This work is not about property management or redesign. It’s about how a home feels when someone arrives, and the quiet details that make a stay feel intentional, seamless and memorable.
For Hosts & Rental Homes
For hosts and rental homes, the settled stay offers a concierge-forward layer that enhances the guest experience without overlapping with day-to-day property management.
We often work alongside property managers and local teams, focusing on the guest journey and the moments that shape first impressions, comfort and return visits.
The goal is simple:
To help each stay feel elevated and effortless – without adding operational complexity.
Ways we support the guest experience include:
Concierge-style guest support before and during a stay, including pre-arrival planning, on-call coordination and thoughtful touchpoints while guests are in the home
Seasonal and themed itineraries and local recommendations, with custom itineraries available by request
Welcome moments and guest gifting, designed to feel local, intentional and appropriate to the season and purpose of the visit
Seasonal refreshes and special seasonal touches, supporting both how the home is prepared throughout the year and how it’s experienced by guests
Coordination of in-home and local services, including private chefs, wellness experiences, celebration packages and special requests
Hospitality readiness assessments and recommendations, focused on how guests move through, use, and experience the space – with thoughtful suggestions that align with its character and how it’s meant to be enjoyed
Light organizing and intuitive systems that support ease of use, comfort and flow for guests
For Homeowners & Second Homes
For homeowners, the settled stay brings the same hospitality sensibility to second homes – ensuring they feel welcoming, prepared and easy to enjoy for owners and guests alike.
Our work often includes:
Seasonal readiness walkthroughs and thoughtful refreshes
Arrival preparation for owners, family or invited guests
Light organizing and intuitive systems that make the home easy to live in and return to
Stocking essentials and coordinating trusted local services
Guidance on enhancing the experience of staying in the home
For homeowners who host beyond everyday use, we also offer support around planning and preparing for intentional gatherings – from family celebrations to small fundraisers or special occasions – providing thoughtful oversight and coordination so the home feels ready and the experience unfolds seamlessly, without feeling overproduced.
How We Work
Our approach is collaborative and discreet. We prioritize clarity of roles, respect existing relationships and tailor our involvement based on the needs of the home and its owners.
Whether supporting a rental property or a second home, our work is guided by one belief: that thoughtful preparation and personalized experiences are what turn a stay – or a gathering – into something truly memorable.
