Find out what it’s worth
Holiday-home letting usually out-earns an annual lease in Dubai — but by how much depends entirely on the building, the layout and the season. So we quote from real performance, not a rule of thumb.
What could your property earn?
Pick where it is and how many bedrooms. We’ll compare holiday-home letting against what a conventional annual lease pays.
We quote from what comparable units actually earned, not from a generic formula. Tell us where to send it and we’ll run the numbers for a 2BR in Palm Jumeirah.

Before you decide
Worth reading first
- How Holiday Home Licensing Works in DubaiLetting a Dubai apartment to short-stay guests is legal, regulated, and requires a permit for the specific unit — issued by the Department of Economy and Tourism, and renewed rather than granted once.
- Holiday Home or Long-Term Rental in Dubai?The choice is not really about which earns more. It is about how much variance you can carry, how much of your own time the property is allowed to take, and what you might want to do with the flat yourself.
Straight answers
What owners ask before they decide
Do I need a licence to rent my Dubai property short-term?
Yes. A holiday home in Dubai has to be registered with the Department of Economy and Tourism and permitted before it can take a single guest, and operating without one carries fines. We hold the operator licence and register your unit under it, so you do not apply yourself, deal with the portal, or renew anything.
How much do holiday home management companies charge in Dubai?
Across Dubai, management fees are usually quoted as a share of what the property earns, and the range is wide because the work is not the same from one unit to the next. We do not publish a single number, because a studio in Business Bay that is already furnished and a four-bedroom on the Palm that needs fitting out are not the same job, and a headline rate that ignores that is a rate you would end up arguing about later. Tell us the building and the unit and we will put the fee, and exactly what it covers, in writing before you commit to anything.
Is the management fee negotiable?
Yes. We agree terms per property rather than putting everyone on the same contract, and the number moves with the building, the size of the unit, how much setting up it needs and whether you have more than one. That is also why it is a conversation rather than a price list.
How and when do I get paid?
Into your account, against a statement that shows what the property earned and what it cost, so the figure is never a number you have to take on trust. You can see bookings, occupancy and statements yourself in the owner portal at any time. The payment schedule is set out in your management agreement so there is no ambiguity about when money arrives.
What is the minimum contract length?
We keep terms flexible and agree them per property rather than forcing everyone onto the same commitment. Whatever we agree goes into your management agreement in writing, including the notice period, so you always know exactly how to end it and what it takes.
Can I still use my property myself?
It stays yours. You set the house rules, you block your own dates whenever you want them, and you can see every booking on your unit. Blocking dates in the owner portal takes them off sale everywhere at once, so there is no risk of a guest arriving on a week you wanted.
Is short-term letting better than an annual lease in Dubai?
Usually, and not always. A holiday home can out-earn an annual lease substantially in a strong building, because you are pricing by the night against demand rather than fixing a figure for a year — but it carries costs a lease does not, and a quiet season shows up in your income where a lease would not move. It depends on the building, the layout and the season, which is why we quote from what comparable units actually earned rather than from a rule of thumb.
Which areas of Dubai do you manage?
Business Bay is our largest concentration and we operate across Dubai, as well as on the Ajman coast. If your building is one we already run units in, we can usually tell you what comparable homes there are achieving before you decide anything.
Who handles the guests, the cleaning and the maintenance?
We do, end to end: listing and pricing, guest vetting and communication, in-person check-in, housekeeping between stays, linen, restocking, and coordinating maintenance when something needs fixing. You are not the escalation point at midnight.
Does my property need to be furnished first?
No. Furnishing is handled by fäm Interiors, our own interior design company, so an empty property and a tired one are both a starting point rather than a problem. We will tell you what the unit needs in order to perform, and what that costs, before any work begins.
