Changing manager · Bali
Switching manager should not cost you a single booking, a single review or a good member of staff. This is the handover we run when a villa comes to us from another company, and what to check in your current contract before you give notice.

In detail
Statements that arrive late or not at all; repairs that appear on invoices without photos; a calendar with holes in high season; reviews that mention dirt, slow replies or a broken pool; a manager who is hard to reach. One of these is a bad month; three of them is a pattern.
If the Airbnb or Booking.com account is in your name, listings and reviews stay with you and we take over as manager or co-host. If the account belongs to the previous company, reviews usually cannot be moved; we rebuild the listings and win the first reviews fast. We tell you which case applies before you give notice.
Guests who booked under the previous manager arrive to the same villa and a better welcome; we honour the rate they paid. Staff contracts are reviewed and either continued or reissued. Keys and codes are changed on handover day.
Notice period; exit fees; exclusivity clauses; who owns the listings and the photos; how deposits held for future bookings are transferred; what happens to unpaid statements. Our guide on management contract clauses walks through each of them, and we will read yours with you.
