The typical Funchal listing sits on one platform at one price from January to December. Demand here barely dips in winter, yet rates stay flat and weeks go unbooked. We fix the commercial side: where your apartment is listed, what it charges tonight, and how fast guests hear back.
Three ways to work with us.
Commission on bookings, not fixed fees. If your apartment doesn't earn, neither do we.
Digital Management
12–15% commission on bookings. The exact rate is agreed up front.
- Listing text and photos reworked for search ranking and conversion
- Dynamic pricing, tuned daily to Funchal demand
- Airbnb, Booking.com and Vrbo from one synced calendar
- Guest messaging from enquiry to review, seven days a week
- Monthly report: revenue, occupancy, nightly rate, every fee
Fits owners who already have a cleaner and self check-in in place.

Four things we put in writing.
The listing stays in your name.
We work as co-host and through a channel manager. Cancel, and your account, reviews and ranking stay with you.
Cleaning at cost.
Your cleaner, your rate, passed through without markup. We coordinate the schedule; we don't take a cut.
One honest report a month.
Every booking, every platform fee, every euro in and out. You see the same numbers we do.
Rolling three-month contracts.
No year-long lock-in. We keep your business by performing, quarter after quarter.
From listing link to first report.

We walk through the numbers, the contract and your questions. No pressure either way.
Onboarding week
Co-host access, channel manager setup, new pricing live on three platforms. You approve every change.
From then on, monthly
You read one report. We run pricing, platforms and guests every day in between.
Run by two of us. Reached by one email.
Lumi is Max and Johannes. We work in English and German, and we built this service for one kind of owner: the one who set the apartment up properly and still watches it earn less than it could, whether they live in Funchal or two thousand kilometres away.
You will always deal with one of us directly. No ticket system, no account manager, no call centre.
Send us your listing link.
You'll get a written estimate of your apartment's earning potential within 48 hours, built from current Funchal market data. Free, and it stays free whether we work together or not.
