The problem

Managing from abroad costs you income and peace of mind

  • Low occupancy

    Poorly optimised calendars and static pricing.

  • Remote management

    Decisions you can't make from another continent.

  • Recurring issues

    Breakdowns and complaints with no quick response.

  • No visibility

    Little insight into the real state of the property.

  • Too many suppliers

    Cleaning, maintenance and channels all over the place.

  • Lower returns

    Runaway costs and a lot of effort on your part.

The result: properties performing below their potential and owners who have had enough.

Why us

Why Caribe Host

Two destinations, done properly

Punta Cana and Miches. We know the ground instead of managing blind across half the country.

A single point of contact

One trusted local manager instead of five uncoordinated suppliers.

Full transparency

An owner portal with real-time reports and KPIs, from anywhere in the world.

Legal compliance

We guide you through the Renatur registry so you operate by the book.

Technology and automation

Automated guest support and real-time monitoring for a leaner operation.

Cleaning and maintenance at no cost to you

Stay-related services are covered by the guest, not out of your pocket.

One team, two sides of the Atlantic

Javier García de Arcos as your single point of contact from Spain: management, client relations and technology. Day-to-day operations in the Dominican Republic will be run by the local lead we are appointing before we manage the first property. A lean structure with no middlemen.

Common questions

Frequently asked questions

What do you charge to manage a property?

We charge 18% of booking revenue, with no fixed monthly fee: if your property generates no bookings in a given month, you pay nothing. That commission covers listing and optimisation on Airbnb and Booking, dynamic pricing, 24/7 multilingual guest support, check-in and check-out, incident handling and access to the owner portal with real-time reporting. Cleaning and maintenance tied to each stay are paid by the guest, not out of your pocket. Setup and onboarding are not charged separately, and the professional photo shoot is included: you pay nothing up front.

Do I have to sign up for a minimum term?

No. There is no minimum term and no exit penalty. We ask for two things, and they are independent of each other: thirty days' notice, and that bookings already confirmed are honoured at the price they were sold for, even if they fall beyond those thirty days. We see them through to the last one, or hand them over to you with every guest's details: someone who has already paid for their trip shouldn't lose out over a decision that wasn't theirs. We say all this because it is the only honest position when the owner lives thousands of miles away and cannot come and check how we work: if the service is good, you don't need to be tied down, and if it isn't, a contract shouldn't be what keeps you. Your listings, your photographs and your booking history are yours, and you take them with you.

I don't live in the Dominican Republic. Is that a problem for renting out my property?

No. Living abroad is precisely why Caribe Host exists. We work with owners based in Europe and North America who cannot look after a property from another continent. Our team is on the ground in Punta Cana and Miches: welcoming guests, coordinating cleaning between stays, resolving breakdowns with local trades and answering enquiries around the clock. You don't need to travel or make day-to-day operational decisions: you follow occupancy, revenue, cleanings and incidents from the owner portal, updated in real time from any time zone.

Which areas of the Dominican Republic do you cover?

Punta Cana and Miches, and only those two. It is a deliberate choice: knowing a destination means knowing its buildings, its community rules, its seasons and its trusted suppliers. We would rather do it properly in two places than claim to cover the whole country untruthfully. Punta Cana is a mature market with high turnover and strong competition; Miches is an emerging destination with longer stays and still very little professionally managed supply.

Who pays for cleaning and maintenance?

Services tied to each stay are covered by the guest, not the owner. Cleaning between bookings, laundry and amenity restocking come out of the guest charge and do not reduce your payout. What may fall to you are structural repairs or property improvements unrelated to daily use; in that case we consult you and provide a quote before doing anything.

Where will my property be listed?

On Airbnb and Booking, which concentrate most of the short-stay demand in the area. We create and optimise the listing, manage dynamic pricing by season and demand, and keep the calendar synchronised so there are no double bookings across platforms.

What happens if something breaks in my property?

We fix it, without you having to find a supplier remotely or coordinate anything from another country. We work with local electrical, plumbing, air conditioning, pool and garden professionals, and we supervise the work on site. When a guest reports a fault, the incident is logged in the owner portal with its progress and resolution date, so you can review your property's history whenever you like.

Can you help with the Renatur registry?

Yes. We gather the property documentation, handle the registration and make sure it is operating by the book before we list it. Short-term rental rules in the Dominican Republic are under review, so we would rather not publish specific deadlines or requirements here that may change: we give you the current, verified detail when we discuss your case.
