Locally Owned and Operated In Galveston

Each SkyRun Vacation Rentals franchise is locally owned and operated in order to deliver superior service to homeowners and guests while actively engaging in the communities in which we operate. Because we operate a small number of rentals in our own backyard, we’re able to put time and personalized attention into each of them. That kind of service is just not possible with traditional, top-down rental corporations.

  • Enjoy a personal relationship with your manager, who is available to answer any and all concerns about your home.
  • We live, work, and play here in Galveston. Our dedicated staff are just a stone’s throw away from your home and can step in to help in any situation.
  • When you work with SkyRun, you are helping to create jobs and grow a small business here in Galveston.

With over 30 years of experience making deep and lasting connections with people, Beth is bringing that passion to the vacation rental landscape and wants to create that same connection with all her homeowners.

Our Commitment to Homeowners

Cash

Say goodbye to being nickel and dimed, and say hello to more revenue than with the competition.

Some management companies promise low fees then slam you with incremental surprise charges for lightbulbs, snow shoveling, and linens. SkyRun doesn’t believe in nickel and diming—you’ll get simple, straightforward terms on your contract with us so you’ll always know what to expect.

It doesn’t cost anything to get started with SkyRun. We make money only when you do: when we get your property booked.

We’ve cracked the code when it comes to pricing your property. Using a scientific approach powered by our national data set and local competitive intelligence, we’ll always price for the best returns on your investment, leaving no money on the table. With this approach, SkyRun homeowners report earning up to 30% more after switching to us.

Your property will not only be listed on the leading online booking channels, but will be optimized to perform well against other similar homes. In fact, SkyRun managed properties are booked 2.4 times more often than the average listing on leading booking channels.

Being part of a franchise, each SkyRun location is equipped with a highly efficient integrated tech stack to run our business. This software helps keep our overhead low, a savings we pass along to our homeowners.

We collect and pay your state and local taxes for nightly rentals. We also organize and prepare your year-end tax documents.

Care

As a local business, our reputation means everything to us. Our clients are not just a number to us–they’re our neighbors.

Our preventative maintenance approach utilizes proactive inspections, routine service, and smart tech to keep your property in excellent condition. Are you looking to retire in this home? We’ll make sure it is ready when you are.

In between stays, our professional team of housekeepers complete a thorough cleaning and restocking process to leave your home sparkling before the next guest arrives.

Homeowners stay happy with SkyRun because we go above and beyond to meet their needs. If you aren’t satisfied, we aren’t either–and we’ll work to make it right.

There’s no reason why guests shouldn’t feel pampered in a vacation rental. We provide high-quality linens, towels, and amenities and our team will restock all guest disposable supplies in between stays.

SkyRun is committed to taking the worries out of vacation rentals for both homeowners and guests. Ask us about our solutions to keep your property safe and protected from liability while you rent it out.

Happy guests power positive reviews—the #1 most important factor in influencing future bookings. On top of providing 24/7 guest support, we provide local recommendations and discounts to enhance the guest experience. The results? SkyRun earns an industry-high guest rating of 4.8 stars out of 5 across our locations and has over 30 thousand 5-star reviews to date.

Communication

You’ll have an open line of communication to us when you need us. No running in circles, no unanswered emails. We’ll get back to you each and every time.

You’ll know your property manager and have a direct line of communication to them when you need them. They’ll live near your home and can be there in a heartbeat should they need to be.

Keep all of your home’s information at your fingertips with our easy-to-use owner portal. From here, you can see, make, and manage your reservations; check your home’s KPIs and customize which metrics you want to track; and view and download your monthly statements, 1099s, and annual reports.

From before the booking all the way through and after checkout, we’re in communication with your guests to ensure they have a smooth and pleasant stay. To make it easy, we’re available to them via phone, email, and text 7 days a week.

We’re experts in local regulations surrounding short term rentals. Things are changing fast, and we know what homeowners need to do to maintain the proper permits and licenses as a vacation rental. We will guide you through the process to ensure your investment property is in full compliance with the law.
