Emma Collins
Landlord, 2-bed apartment, London
When the reforms were announced, I realized our long-term rental setup might not be the best option anymore. I started looking for a smarter, more flexible approach and that’s when we began working with Staymo. They helped us transition to a short-let strategy seamlessly. Since then, occupancy has improved, the income has become much more consistent, and I no longer have to worry about the day-to-day management. It’s been a much easier and more reliable way to run the property
James Walker
Landlord, 1-bed
flat, London
I used to manage the flat myself on Airbnb, and it quickly became too much — cleaning, guest messages, pricing, there was always something to sort out. I wanted something more hands-off, so I started working with Staymo. They moved the property to a short-let setup and now everything runs much more smoothly. Occupancy has been great and I no longer have to stay on top of the daily bookings and guest communication. It’s made owning the flat much less stressful.
Sophie Bennett
Homeowner
(Rent-while-away)
I travel for work for several months each year and hated leaving my flat sitting empty, but I also didn’t want a permanent tenant. Staymo helped set the property up for mid-term stays that fit around the times I’m away. It’s worked out really well — the flat is looked after, professionally cleaned before I return, and the income comfortably covers my mortgage while I’m gone

Mark
Studio Owner
in East London
I used to manage the flat myself on Airbnb and it honestly started to feel like a second full-time job — late-night messages, constant turnovers, and always something to deal with. I decided to work with Staymo and switched to a short-let setup. Since then, everything has been much easier to manage. The bookings have been steady, I hardly need to check in on the property, and it finally feels like the kind of passive income I hoped it would be.
Philippa Wood
Property Investor
(3-bed portfolio)
As an investor, my priority is reliable tenants and minimal wear and tear. Staymo focuses on mid-term stays for professionals and people relocating for work, which means the property is treated like a home rather than a short visit. Since switching, my flats have actually stayed in better condition than when I did traditional long-term lets, and the reporting makes everything very easy to keep track of.
Toby Lewis
2-bed Apartment Owner
I was always worried about gaps between bookings, which is one of the biggest risks with short lets. But Staymo manages the bookings really efficiently, so the flat is rarely empty — usually just a couple of days between stays for a turnover. My occupancy last year ended up being much higher than I expected for the area.
