Description

COMPANY OVERVIEW:

Staylah is a growing vacation rental collective that thrives on delivering exceptional stays to guests and optimal returns for owners. Our genesis, in 2022, came from firsthand experience with lackluster property management and care for our portfolio of short-term rental properties in Tennessee. Dwindling returns, poor emphasis on quality, and unhappy guests drove us to find a better way. 

This calling lead to the departure from a stable, lucrative, 20-year career in risk and insurance, where our founder, Matt Hammer, was an integral partner in growing a startup into a public company. Now, this passion is directed toward building the preeminent vacation rental collective in the world. 

Staylah has joined forces with a regional leader in stewarding vacation rental accommodations in Florida to catapult success and bolster its value proposition. This partnership fast-tracks growth and results in the management and care of over 60 vacation rental accommodations of excellence in less than a year’s time. More details about what drives us:
