Full Villa Management
Everything from marketing and rate setting to the last inspection of the season: professional photography and listing, dynamic pricing, enquiry handling and guest vetting, contracts and deposits, arrival and departure management, housekeeping, laundry, garden and pool care, maintenance to plan, compliance filings and monthly accounts. Owners retain flexible personal use through a live calendar they control, and every stay ends with a photographic condition report filed against the property record.
Guest Operations and Concierge
Guests are met in person, shown the house, and given a manual in four languages plus a direct number answered from seven in the morning to eleven at night. The concierge arranges private chefs and full kitchen brigades, drivers and transfers, boat charters with skippers, restaurant tables, childcare, medical appointments, ski and golf bookings in season, and deliveries of anything the house does not already hold. Preferences are recorded so that returning guests find the same arrangements without asking twice.
Estate, Garden and Waterfront Care
Scheduled care of gardens, terraces, irrigation, pools and pool plant, retaining walls, paths, lighting, jetties, boathouses, slipways and moorings, carried out by our own teams with specialist contractors where needed. Includes winterisation and spring opening, storm response, diver inspections, boat servicing and lifting, and management of the concessions and permits attached to the water frontage. Available to owners who do not let their property at all and simply want it kept in condition.
Refurbishment and Interiors
Survey, staged plan, permissions including heritage consent, and full project management for restoration and modernisation: roofs, damp, insulation, heating and cooling, wiring, kitchens, bathrooms, window restoration, plaster and paint, and furnishing with pieces chosen for durability as well as appearance. Budgets are tracked in a document the owner can read at a glance, and we advise honestly when an improvement will not repay itself in either rental income or resale value.
Aparthotel Operation
For buildings of eight to thirty units we provide complete operation: reception and night cover, housekeeping and linen, breakfast service, revenue management across direct and platform channels, maintenance, compliance, staffing and payroll coordination, and full financial reporting. We take buildings from conversion through licensing to opening, and we run several under long lease as well as under management contract, which allows owners to choose between a fixed income and a share of the trading result.
Purchase Advice and Representation
Before buying on a lake it is worth knowing whether the mooring concession transfers, whether the boathouse is legal, what the heritage office will refuse, how the road access is shared and what the annual running cost really is. We inspect on behalf of buyers, produce realistic income and cost projections, review renovation estimates and attend negotiations and handovers. The work is charged as a flat fee, we take no commission from sellers or agents, and our reservations are always put in writing.
