Erik: Three villas, one comprehensive solution

Starting with a single villa, Erik V. sought to turn his Marbella property into a successful vacation rental while balancing a busy schedule. Partnering with Vacation Marbella allowed him to grow from one villa to three in 3 years, with each property thriving under our expert management. With optimized bookings and seamless guest experiences, Erik’s journey reflects the power of collaboration and a shared vision for excellence in Marbella.

What type of property does Erik manage with Vacation Marbella?

With sunlit terraces and endless sea views, Erik’s villas are designed to embrace the Mediterranean lifestyle. Erik opted for elegant, modern interiors that combine comfort with style, providing spacious and welcoming areas perfect for families and groups seeking privacy and convenience. Each villa is ideally located near Marbella’s best beaches and attractions, ensuring a memorable stay for every guest.

What expectations did Erik have for Vacation Marbella?

Erik came to Vacation Marbella with high hopes for his first villa but also with some reservations. He envisioned a seamless rental experience, where guests would feel at home while enjoying five-star service, yet he wasn’t sure if that was possible. He wanted his property to stand out in Marbella’s competitive market, hoping that Vacation Marbella’s expertise could bring his villa the visibility and care it deserved.

His primary concern was finding a team who could balance high occupancy with quality, maintaining the villa’s pristine condition and ensuring that every guest received the same attention to detail he would provide himself. Erik also hoped to keep his villa filled year-round, but he worried about seasonal slowdowns.

When he met with Vacation Marbella, our team reassured him that our local expertise and dynamic pricing strategy would help overcome these challenges. We highlighted the personalized approach we take with each property, from professional photography or FPVs videos that capture every villa’s unique character to targeted marketing that attracts ideal guests. Our commitment to handling every detail, from guest check-ins to property maintenance, reassured Erik that his villa was in expert hands.

Within months, steady bookings exceeded his expectations even in quieter seasons with a year-round occupancy of 86% on average. Impressed by the results, Erik expanded his partnership with Vacation Marbella, adding a second villa in his second year and a third in his third year. Today, he proudly manages three successful villas, knowing his guests receive top-notch service and that each property’s potential is maximized. What started as a leap of faith has become a flourishing portfolio, built on trust, shared goals, and a commitment to excellence in Marbella.

“Trusting Vacation Marbella was one of the best decisions I’ve made. Today I manage three villas with them, and I know each one is in expert hands—cared for as if it were their own.”
