Overview

This is a cleaning service for property owners, not for guests. We work with Airbnb and short-let hosts, apartment landlords, long-term rental owners, property managers, agencies and small serviced-apartment operators who need a unit reset to listing-photo standard between guests, between tenants, or on a fixed housekeeping schedule. You give us access details and your check-out/check-in window; a vetted, uniformed crew arrives with its own detergents, machines and consumables, cleans to a written room-by-room checklist, changes and makes up the linen, restocks the basics, flags anything broken or missing, and sends you a dated photo report before the next guest walks in. Hosts with several units run on a monthly managed plan with one invoice, one point of contact and priority scheduling during peak season.

Important Information

  • We serve property owners and managers — guests should contact their host, not us.
  • Turnovers need a minimum 2-hour window between check-out and check-in.
  • Same-day and last-minute bookings depend on crew availability; peak-season weekends fill early.
  • Prices are guides — a unit's size, condition and stair access can change the quote.
  • Excessively soiled units (party damage, pets, long-uncleaned lets) are quoted as deep cleans.
  • Breakages and missing items are photographed and reported, never silently disposed of.
  • Crew members are ID-verified and supervised; we can sign an NDA for high-value properties.

Booking, Cancellation & Child Policy

  • Reservations require a signed booking form and deposit.
  • Standard deposit: 30% of the total trip cost (50% during peak seasons Dec–Feb & Jul–Sep).
  • Balance is due 30 days before travel; last-minute bookings (under 30 days) require full payment.
  • Booking is confirmed only once we've issued a written confirmation and receipt.
  • Last-minute bookings accepted subject to availability — WhatsApp us for fastest response.

Full Terms & Conditions, Refund Policy and Privacy Policy apply.
