How does MyBnB stop luxury bungalows being used for parties or events?

Every booking is hand-accepted — no instant book. ID, trip purpose and guest history are reviewed on each enquiry, and premium-tier house rules are enforced. No separate security deposit is applied under our current standard guest policy; damage cases are handled through the relevant booking platform's resolution process where applicable.

Can owners keep a direct booking channel alongside Airbnb?

Yes — MyBnB builds a direct booking funnel alongside the Airbnb listing so repeat premium guests can book direct, while Airbnb continues to bring in new premium leisure demand.

Who handles the grounds, pool and premium consumables?

MyBnB maintains a direct relationship with maintenance, pool and gardener crews, and manages premium linen, amenity and consumable replenishment between every stay.

What does a premium operations cadence look like?

Pre-stay welcome messages, on-arrival walkthrough, in-stay concierge-style support, and a full on-departure inspection — with a monthly report summarising every booking and cost.
