Hostiva

Hostiva manages short-term rental properties (Alojamento Local) in Portugal, handling everything from dynamic pricing to daily guest communication so owners can earn more from their properties without doing the work themselves. The company lists properties across more than 20 booking platforms and uses dynamic pricing tools to adjust nightly rates in real time, aiming to increase revenue per night and occupancy through the year. Guests are supported by a 24/7 communication team, and owners get a digital dashboard with booking notifications through a dedicated homeowner app. Beyond pricing and guest messaging, Hostiva's plans cover cleaning and laundry coordination, property maintenance, professional photo and video sessions, tourist tax collection, and SEF/SIBA guest registration. A guest verification and smart deposit system is built in to protect properties from damage and reduce risk, with the company handling any claims directly with booking platforms on the owner's behalf. Plans range from a basic key management and mail forwarding service through to a full management package that includes marketing, reservations, daily operations, cleaning, maintenance, billing and regular quality inspections, with owners able to choose the level of service that suits their property.
