Airbnb & holiday rental management in Bar Beach

Our percentage-based management fee is tailored to your property, availability and service needs, and calculated on booking revenue after booking-platform fees. It covers listing optimisation, smart pricing, 24/7 guest support, compliance support, and cleaning and maintenance coordination.

Your personalised quote sets out what’s included, the one-time onboarding fee for property preparation and any separate property costs, so you know what to expect before getting started.

MadeComfy’s portfolio-wide results, reported in September 2026, showed 34% more net rental income on average than long-term rentals over the preceding 12 months. Your personalised forecast compares expected short-term rental income and costs with a long-term lease, based on your property and availability. Individual results vary.

MadeComfy’s team manages your property’s listings, pricing, bookings, 24/7 guest support, cleaning, linen and maintenance coordination. We market your home across leading booking platforms and our corporate travel network. Your owner dashboard keeps bookings, income and property updates in one place, and you can contact our team on 1800 526 133.

We pay your rental earnings monthly by bank transfer to your nominated account. Your owner dashboard brings together bookings, income, financial statements and property updates, with service charges itemised on your statement. You can also compare your property’s performance with the local short-term rental market.

Bar Beach can suit guests who want to combine Newcastle's coast with time around Empire Park and the beach. A house or apartment with laundry, beach-gear storage and a comfortable living area is a practical fit. Check parking and the real walk to the sand, and assess salt exposure, outdoor upkeep and bedroom noise before preparing the property for guests.

MadeComfy can guide you through the short-term rental requirements for your Bar Beach property, including NSW STRA registration, annual renewal, fire-safety standards and the Code of Conduct. The Greater Sydney 180-day limit does not apply here, which can offer more flexibility when planning your availability. We'll help you understand any property-specific consent conditions from the City of Newcastle, along with applicable strata rules and insurance considerations, and work through the next steps with you before welcoming guests.

We assess local demand, your availability and any applicable stay limits to recommend a suitable mix of short and medium-term bookings. Our revenue team adjusts pricing and the mix of stays around your property, supported by leading booking platforms and our corporate travel network.

We arrange cleaning, fresh linen and towels, and restocking between guest stays. Regular changeover cleans are covered by the guest cleaning fee. Housekeepers complete MadeComfy’s training and certification program, with photographic reporting and quality checks helping keep your property ready for each arrival.

Our team coordinates repairs with trusted trades and keeps you informed through your owner dashboard. Our support team is available 24/7 for urgent property issues and arranges the appropriate response. Repair approval limits are agreed with you in advance, and repair costs are separate from the management fee.

We use guest ID checks and screening, house rules and property inspections to help protect your home. If damage is identified, we document it, keep you informed and coordinate any required repairs within your agreed approval limits. Any claim depends on the relevant booking-platform or insurance terms, so you should maintain insurance suitable for short-term letting.

We assess your property and its rental potential, then an onboarding specialist guides you through property preparation, photography, listing creation and pricing. You can review and approve your listing before it goes live, with launch timing based on your property’s readiness.

Once bookings begin, our team monitors guest feedback and local demand, refining pricing and your listing as the property becomes established.
