Short-term rental industry platform Guesty has been certified as the new property management system of choice for Casago, a premier vacation rental property management company and its network or providers.
This news comes on the heels of Casago’s acquisition of Vacasa, a property management platform in North America with more than 35,000 properties on its books.
The combined company now manages more than 40,000 vacation rentals across North America, The Caribbean, Belize, and Costa Rica.
As Casago moves to transition Vacasa’s operations markets to Casago franchises, Guesty’s platform will be offered to franchise partners to deliver maximum occupancy, maximum revenue, maximum ease, and the highest guest satisfaction.
Guesty’s HQ solution delivers a unified system that simplifies franchise complexity and unlocks scale. With Casago’s integration and certification of Guesty, franchise partners will have clarity and confidence across every level of the operation.
“When Casago first started talking to prospective franchisees, some of these partners told us that retaining Guesty was critical to their existing operations,” said Steve Schwab, founder & CEO of Casago.
“Guesty’s systems immediately impressed us. They help local teams and franchisors work seamlessly together, so it’s really about blending our strengths to deliver better experiences for homeowners and guests.
“At Casago, whenever we talk about technology, partnerships, or growth, it always comes back to the local teams running the properties, the homeowners who trust us with their investments, and the guests we’re here to serve—that’s who we’re building for.”
“The custom-tailored Guesty HQ solution is the industry’s first PMS product engineered from the ground up to deliver results specifically for franchisees,” said Amiad Soto, founder and CEO of Guesty. “Now, local operators can fully control and craft their workflows while being nested under an HQ services layer, allowing for back-office support.”
Additionally, Guesty and Casago have agreed for David Angotti, Guesty’s Chief Evangelist, to join Casago as a senior advisor to provide marketing value for all of Casago’s franchisees.
