Get Absolutely and Escapia Announce Strategic Partnership

Few things capture the imagination like a sun-drenched villa or a cozy chalet in snow-capped mountains. Whether it’s a family getaway or a romantic retreat, travellers expect comfort, convenience — and peace of mind. But for hosts and property managers in the short-term rental market, the honeymoon can end fast when maintenance problems or guest-service issues pop up. Suddenly what should be a smooth stay becomes a logistical headache.

That’s where Get Absolutely comes in. Get Absolutely is designed to act as a powerful, no-code coordination layer for managing guest issues — whether it’s a leaky faucet, a broken appliance, or a last-minute maintenance request. It helps hosts and property managers connect quickly with home-service professionals, get quotes, schedule repairs, and track the issue from start to resolution.

But handling service problems is only half the battle. What if you also had full control over the rest of your rental operations — bookings, maintenance, guest communications, accounting — all in one place? That’s why Get Absolutely is now partnering with Escapia.

Escapia is a veteran in vacation-rental property management software, trusted by hundreds of rental companies around the world.

Here are some of Escapia’s core strengths:

• Comprehensive property management features — Escapia handles reservations and calendars, dynamic rate management, channel distribution (listings across multiple rental marketplaces), guest hospitality tools, owner portals, maintenance and housekeeping scheduling, and much more.
  Robust trust accounting and financial controls — Guest payments, owner payouts, management fees, taxes: Escapia’s built-in trust-accounting system keeps everything transparent and accurate. That helps avoid compliance issues and builds trust with property owners.
• Data, analytics and reporting — With powerful tools like performance dashboards and flex reporting, you can track occupancy, revenue, booking trends, average daily rates (ADR), and more. This data makes strategic decisions easier.
• Scalability and automation — Whether you manage a few properties or hundreds, Escapia is built to help you scale: automating manual tasks, streamlining communication, synchronising bookings, and coordinating operations across the board.
• Connectivity and channel reach — Escapia integrates with 30+ distribution channels and major marketplaces (including popular ones used by travellers worldwide), helping you get your properties in front of more guests without juggling multiple platforms.

In short: Escapia provides a robust, professional-grade backbone for your rental business — the operational engine that keeps bookings, finances, maintenance, and guest communication under control.

By combining Get Absolutely’s service-coordination platform with Escapia’s full management suite, this partnership enables hosts and property managers to deliver a truly end-to-end, seamless rental experience — not just for bookings, but ongoing operations and guest satisfaction.

✨ What’s improved — and why it matters

• Unified operations: Now you don’t have to juggle separate tools for bookings, maintenance, guest communication, and accounting. Everything runs through the Escapia + Get Absolutely ecosystem — simplifying workflows dramatically.
• Faster, smarter maintenance: When a guest encounters an issue, Get Absolutely connects them to trusted service professionals. With Escapia handling reservations, availability and housekeeping, maintenance can be scheduled without risking double-bookings or operational chaos.
• Better financial control and transparency: With Escapia’s trust-accounting and owner-portal, you gain precise oversight of payments, owner payouts, fees, taxes — even when maintenance costs or service jobs come into play.
• Data-driven decision-making: Using Escapia’s analytics tools (performance dashboards, Flex Reporting, occupancy trends, ADR management), managers can make informed pricing and operational decisions — including factoring in maintenance costs, guest satisfaction, and seasonality.
• Scalable & professional-grade support: As your portfolio grows — whether dozens or hundreds of properties — this integrated solution keeps operations manageable, automated, and consistent.

Picture this: a guest reports a broken boiler during a winter stay. Instead of scrambling manually, as a manager you:

1. Log the issue in Get Absolutely.
2. Immediately pull up trusted local service providers, get quotes, and schedule repair — all without leaving the interface.
3. Escapia automatically checks availability to avoid overlap or double-booking; housekeeping and maintenance schedules adjust accordingly.
4. Costs are logged via Escapia’s trust-accounting tools. Owner payout calculations — including fees, taxes, and maintenance charges — remain transparent and precise.
5. Guest communication is streamlined (via Escapia’s guest-hospitality tools), so the customer stays informed and satisfied.
6. After checkout, comprehensive reporting provides insight into how maintenance needs impacted occupancy, revenue, and costs — helping you optimise operations for future stays.

In short: a potential disaster becomes just another well-handled part of your workflow.

In a vacation-rental world where guest expectations are high — and margins can be thin — success depends on reliable operations, swift resolution of issues, and consistent service quality. The combined power of Get Absolutely and Escapia delivers exactly that: a unified, scalable, end-to-end solution that turns guest-service headaches into streamlined workflows.

Whether you manage a handful of villas or hundreds of rental units, this partnership positions you not just to survive, but to thrive — with confident operations, financial transparency, and guest satisfaction baked in.
