Keepers + Hostaway: Nashville & Marco Island — The Best STR Operations Platform for Multi-Market Operators

Marco Island is one of Southwest Florida's most sought-after vacation destinations, attracting tens of thousands of guests each year to its white-sand beaches and upscale waterfront properties. For short-term rental property managers operating in this competitive market, keeping up with the pace of back-to-back bookings, turnover schedules, and guest expectations is a full-time challenge — and then some. Without the right systems in place, even experienced operators lose 10 or more hours per week to manual coordination tasks like assigning cleaners, tracking maintenance issues, and chasing down inspection reports. Marco Island's high nightly rates mean that a single missed turnover or overlooked maintenance request can cost hundreds of dollars in refunds or negative reviews. Traditional spreadsheets and group chats simply cannot scale with a growing portfolio. Keepers was built specifically to solve this problem. By centralizing every operational workflow into one intelligent platform, Keepers helps Marco Island property managers eliminate guesswork, reduce costly errors, and deliver a consistently five-star guest experience. Property managers using Keepers report up to 45% faster turnover coordination and a dramatic reduction in last-minute operational fires.

Marco Island property managers face unique operational demands. High seasonal occupancy, luxury guest expectations, and a competitive rental landscape mean there is zero tolerance for operational slip-ups. That is why a growing number of STR operators across Marco Island are switching to Keepers as their central operations platform. Property managers report saving an average of 12 hours per week after onboarding — time previously spent manually coordinating cleaners, following up on maintenance tickets, and manually verifying property readiness. With Keepers, every turnover is tracked automatically, every inspection is documented with AI-verified photo evidence, and every team member knows exactly what to do and when. Marco Island operators also highlight the platform's real-time dashboard as a game-changer for portfolio oversight.
