Devista Drive Case Study

Devista Drive is a three bedroom, two bathroom home in Hollywood Hills. With its soaring ceilings, unfussy (but still very elegant) furnishings and pretty accessories, this home’s open-plan living area is dramatic, yet welcoming. The master bedroom is white-painted and peaceful, with a neat ensuite and doors onto the hillside garden, where you’ll find a hot tub and a patio with a place to dine. This neighbourhood’s close to Runyon Canyon Park, with all its wild hiking trails, and feels wonderfully secluded. And yet it’s only around a ten-minute drive from here to the buzzing centre of West Hollywood.

Don’t just take our word for it

Frequently asked questions

Who is a onefinestay homeowner?
chevron

Our hosts are adventurers, the kind of people who are always off seeing the world. We have families who love getting away during the school holidays, busy business travellers, retirees with second homes and creatives who split their time between two cities, to name a few. Because they travel frequently (at least six weeks per year) and for long periods of time, they want to make the best use out of their homes whilst they are away.

They choose onefinestay because they want to use their homes flexibly and are looking to effortlessly enjoy all the benefits of short term renting without the hassle of doing it alone. Because they are extremely house proud, they need a partner who is not only highly experienced in managing the entire rental experience from end-to-end, but who also understands the energy, love and investment that has gone into creating their beautiful homes. onefinestay hosts love our professional, reliable approach and superb attention to detail, and appreciate leaving the hard work to us because of their active lifestyles.

What are the homeowner benefits of partnering with onefinestay?
chevron

  • Tailored care: We take a personal approach to partnering with our hosts.

chevron

Featuring primary and secondary residences, our curated portfolio is incredibly diverse and superbly located in the world’s most exciting cities, such as London, New York City, Rome, Paris, Los Angeles, San Francisco, Milan, Florence, Rome and Sydney.

Whether it's a one bedroom apartment or a six bedroom townhouse, every onefinestay home has wow factor. Artfully blending quality, comfort and character, they are immaculate and stylish, with unique design details and comfortable furniture. Many of our guests also look for personal touches that make a home feel like home; an impressive art collection or bookshelf stacked with favourite reads.

What information will you need from me when I apply?
chevron
We just need to know your home’s address, number of bedrooms and whether it is your primary or secondary home (due to regulations). We will ask you if you plan to be away from your home for a minimum of six weeks per year. It is also really helpful to send us plenty of photos of different rooms so we can get an initial idea of how your home looks.
What do I need to know about short term rental regulations?
chevron
All of our cities have different regulations and we are happy to provide you with the relevant resources so you know if your home is suitable for short term rentals in your city.
What happens after I apply?
chevron

A member of our New Homes team will be in touch within two business days to talk about your home and your needs. If it’s a good match so far, we will then organise a home visit to meet you and experience your wonderful home first-hand. This is a chance for us to advise you on pricing, suggest optimisations that could enhance your earnings, fill you in on the finer points of our service, and answer anything else you might want to know.

What happens after I agree to partner with you?
chevron

Once we have signed the contract, you’ll meet your dedicated Account Manager who will work closely with you to learn everything about your home so that we can answer any guest queries and ensure that the time you spend away is not interrupted unless absolutely necessary. Discovering all its quirks and charms, we will get to know exactly how everything in your home works, from the boiler to the coffee machine. You let us know which areas you will clear for guests and which areas you want private. When we are done, we will know how to look after your home just like you do. At the same time we complete a professionally styled photoshoot which will show your home at its best. We then write a detailed and inspiring home description for our website that helps bring out your home’s best features, including any home truths that our guests need to know.

How long before my home is bookable?
chevron

Once we have completed your in-depth home registration, it is our aim to make your home bookable as quickly as possible. It usually takes us up to two weeks to organise your home’s website listing and promotion. During this time, you should make sure you are ready for guests by checking that you have things like copies of keys and safety certificates. We will advise you on exactly what needs organising.

What happens after my home is live?
chevron

We promote your home via our exclusive marketing channels and selected luxury travel partners, including relocation and talent agencies. Our inhouse specialist pricing team creates custom pricing strategies for each home. They manage demand and seasonality to maximise your potential income.

What happens when there is a guest booking?
chevron


We manage all guest communications before and during their stay. Organising chauffeurs, grocery deliveries, babysitting services and destination experiences.

How does onefinestay prepare my home for a guest stay?
chevron

Before a guest checks in, our professional housekeeping team prepares your home to our exacting standards including supplying onefinestay linens, towels and toiletries. . We then take a photographic inventory so that we know how to put everything back in its rightful place. We label private storage areas so guests know which areas are for them.

We greet guests on arrival and show them around your home explaining your House Rules. We take care of them during their stay and support them 24/7, ensuring you are not disturbed. When guests depart, our housekeeping team returns to clean, and to take another photographic inventory, before returning everything to exactly how you left it.

How do you screen guests and ensure they will respect my home?
chevron

We have been in the hospitality industry for ten years so we know how to spot the main red flags. We have strict no smoking and no party policies, and we speak to all guests before their stay, ensuring they meet our over 25 years old criteria and provide a valid reason for their stay. We take a £1000 damage deposit which covers the majority of small breakages. We check IDs in person when we greet guests on arrival and show them around your home explaining your House Rules.

What if an item is accidently damaged by a guest?
chevron

We take damage deposits from all guests, and have insurance policies to cover both your interiors and your home itself. Before and after each stay we capture 100s of photographs of your home, so we know who is responsible for any accidental damage. We close off any storage areas that you want kept private with tamper tape, and we recommend that you store any irreplaceable or sentimental items in these sealed-off spaces during guest stays.

How much could I earn with you?
chevron

We offer our extensive service on an income sharing model. Because each of our homes is unique, there are many variables so we will model your expected income as a next step based on size, design, location and how many weeks you plan to be away. In addition to marketing your home across our own sizable channels, such as email, social media and PR, we also promote your home through our network of luxury travel partners who cater to a wide range of discerning travellers. We also receive requests for homes suitable for photo shoots or showrooms – if this appeals, let us know as this is another great way to boost your income.

How do you keep my home secure?
chevron

We keep all keys to your home in safes, and log them in and out every time we use them. Should your home require maintenance, we have a network of highly vetted and trusted contractors suppliers, or we can also use your own if you have an existing relationship.

Can I choose when I offer my home to guests?
chevron

Yes, of course, you will have complete control over your availability calendar via the onefinestay portal. We do ask that you make sure your home will be available for a minimum of six weeks across the course of the year. We also recommend informing us when you are planning to be away as far ahead of time as is possible, 12 months ahead is the best, and more than 90 days ahead is essential.

What if I need to cancel a booking?
chevron

Our guests choose onefinestay because we are reliable. However, we do understand that unforeseen circumstances may mean that hosts need to cancel bookings. If this happens, let your Account Manager know as soon as possible so we can relocate our guests. A cancellation penalty will apply.

What happens if a guest needs to cancel a booking?
chevron

This depends on the rate they bought. With our standard cancellations, if guests cancel within 14 days of check-in, you will receive a cancellation fee. With a flexible rate, guests can cancel for free up to 7 days in advance of check-in, however, it is your decision if you would like to offer guests a flexible rate.

How will I be paid for guest stays?
chevron

We pay hosts directly into their bank accounts in local currency on a monthly basis.

Can I list my home with other companies?
chevron

We only work with hosts who are willing to offer us exclusivity. This is an important aspect which makes us unique, as many of our premium travel organisations will only partner with us. If you currently list your home on another website, you need to agree to work solely with onefinestay going forwards (although you may honour existing future bookings made on other platforms).

What am I expected to do to prepare for guests?
chevron

Please ensure all appliances and home systems are checked regularly and in good working order, and inform your Account Manager of any updates to your home. Leave us a tidy home, with agreed guest storage areas clear, and we will do the rest, making the experience effortless for you.

What happens if there is an issue when a guest is in my home?
chevron

When guests are staying in your home, they will be looked after by our service team, who are available around the clock. They will handle any requests however minor, so you should never be interrupted by a call from us asking how to operate the TV once we have all the details.

What items do I need to provide in my home?
chevron

Our guests expect our beautiful homes to be fully equipped and furnished. Mostly this means making sure you have good quality basics – things like cooking equipment, matching crockery and excellent Wi-Fi. If you join us, we will advise you on anything extra you might need to make sure our guests have an enjoyable experience.

Who will manage our garden/ terrace/ pool?
chevron

Our teams are only trained to manage the inside of your home, and as gardens and pools can be quite complex to maintain we do ask that you arrange for someone to look after these privately.

Can I use my own cleaning service?
chevron

No, because not only will our housekeeping team clean your home to professional hospitality standards, they also prepare your home for our guests with onefinestay linen, towels, toiletries and our welcome gift. They inspect your home and take a photographic inventory for security reasons between each stay. They clearly label any areas of your home that you have informed us are not for guest use.

Do you allow pets?
chevron

We never allow our guests to bring pets into your home, unless this is something that has been agreed with you in advance. We are not able to take care of your pets while you are away, and you will need to make alternative arrangements for them.

What if issues arise?
chevron

Your dedicated Account Manager can be reached by both phone and email in local office hours, and will be your first port of call if an issue arises. In case of emergencies, both hosts and guests can contact our 24/7 service phone line.
