Full-Service Airbnb and Holiday Home Management in Queenstown
Why Homeowners Choose Lake & Peak
1. Revenue Strategy Comes First
“Set and forget” is where performance slips.
We treat pricing as a daily discipline. Demand moves, weather shifts, events pop up, and the market reacts. Rates should react with it. With a background in managing revenue for commercial properties across New Zealand, we’re tracking pacing, supply, and competitive pressure every single day.
What this means for you:
healthier yield across the year
fewer empty nights
smarter rate positioning in shoulder months
reporting that’s easy to follow and actually useful
2. Visual Storytelling That Sells the Stay
Photography isn’t decoration. It determines clicks, conversion, and where you sit in the search results. Homes that look better, earn better.
We handle the full visual setup:
clean, high-end photography
staging that highlights the strengths of the space
guest-focused descriptions
deliberate photo sequencing
platform SEO so you appear in the right searches
When your home is presented well, performance follows.
Our Process (4 Steps)
1. Discovery Call
We start by understanding what you want from your home.
If possible, we visit in person to get a proper feel for the space.
2. Revenue Forecast & Strategy Plan
We build a realistic forecast based on:
market demand
layout and guest appeal
seasonality
local competition
likely guest types
potential improvements
You’ll know exactly what to expect - without inflated promises.
3. Listing Setup & Launch
We prepare everything needed for a strong launch:
photography
pricing model
listing build
copywriting
platform integration
guest messaging
4. Full-Service Management
From launch onwards, we handle it all - pricing, booking flow, communication, cleaning, and ongoing optimisation.
You don’t need to step in unless you want to.
3. Local Knowledge
Queenstown moves quickly. Seasonality, weather, events, and international arrivals all shift demand.
We track this using local market data, historical trends, and real booking behaviour - not guesswork. We see how different suburbs perform, which guest types book when, and how demand changes week to week.
That’s how we know who’s booking, when they’re booking, and what they’re looking for - families, couples, weekend adventurers, workcation guests, or luxury travellers.
The closer we match your home to the right audience, the stronger the results.
4. Hands-On Care & Straight Communication
We run your home like it’s our own. Quick replies. Clear answers. Consistent updates. You’ll always know what’s happening, and why.
Guests get the information they need.
You get transparency.
Simple as that.
5. Consistently Clean, Well-Presented Stays
Cleanliness and presentation carry your reputation. We work with cleaners who understand short-stay standards, and we keep the home at a level you can feel confident in.
Linen, restocking, checks, presentation - everything is done properly each turnaround.
