Success Story: From Dream Home to Fully Booked

How Check The Guest Helped Casa Girard Become a 9/10 Holiday Hit

Tucked away in the charming area behind Los Cristianos lies a beautifully renovated, medium-sized apartment in the Diamantes complex—now known as Casa Girard. With both a balcony and a spacious terrace offering stunning sea views, it’s a dream getaway spot.

The owners poured their heart into turning this apartment into the perfect holiday retreat. Once their vision was realized, they decided to turn it into a profitable rental opportunity. That’s where Check The Guest stepped in.

We helped the owners navigate the world of short-term rentals by listing their property across key platforms like Airbnb, Booking.com, VRBO, and even their very own branded booking website. Just one week after going live, their first guest checked in. From that point on, Casa Girard has enjoyed full occupancy with an impressive review score of 9 out of 10!

So, what’s the secret to such a fast and successful launch?

It all starts with a professional touch. Our team began with an initial assessment of the apartment, advising on the optimal furnishing and amenities to meet the needs and expectations of modern travelers. We created a comprehensive checklist to ensure everything a guest might want or need was in place.

Next, we brought in our media team to capture high-quality, professional photos—complete with drone shots to highlight the apartment’s unique surroundings and ocean views.

Armed with the right visuals and details, we built standout listings across multiple platforms, using smart SEO and strategic keywords to ensure Casa Girard popped out among hundreds of listings in the area. We analyzed local market data, comparing similar properties based on size and layout to determine a competitive starting nightly rate—then priced it slightly lower to attract early bookings and build momentum.

Once the first reservation came in, we ensured the apartment was 100% guest-ready: sparkling clean, fresh linens, and even a personalized welcome package to set the tone for a great stay.

Throughout the process, we stayed in close contact with the guests. We managed all formalities, including reservation forms and ID verification, while answering any questions and coordinating arrival times. Our local host was on-site to personally greet each guest, assist with luggage, provide keys, and offer a quick tour—all within five minutes, making the experience warm, smooth, and professional.

When guests checked out, the host returned to collect the keys and perform a quick inspection—ensuring everything was in perfect condition and giving the owners complete peace of mind.

The result? The very first guest left a glowing 10/10 review. From there, the bookings came flooding in. Within just four weeks, Casa Girard was fully booked for the next four months.
