What is the commission rate?
Calisto charges a commission of 20% of the rental amount. This fee covers the cost of 24/7 customer service, inquiry management, pricing optimization, client vetting, guest toiletries, contract management, payment collection, guest services, and cleaning & maintenance coordination.
Who pays for cleaning and maintenance?
Cleaning is always paid for by the guest, and is only paid by the owner in the event that they stay at the property. Maintenance is part of the general up-keep of the property and is paid for by the owner. The exception to that is if any damage is caused by guests. Basic cleaning tools such as a vacuum and a mop are provided by the owner. However, cleaning supplies are provided on an ongoing basis by Calisto.
How quickly are issued resolved?
Our team of concierges are available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. We aim to solve all maintenance issues within a few hours, with a team available for call-outs at all times. Major issues may take longer to resolve, but most requests are fully resolved within 24 hours.
Can I sort cleanings and maintenance myself?
Generally no. This is due to the difficulty in organizing third party maintenance on an urgent basis for guests. Delays cause unhappy guests and refunds. Having one provider of services maximizes profits of the property.
How quickly can my property be online?
A concierge will contact you within 24 hours of completing this request. Our total onboarding time is 3 to 7 working days depending on your photography needs.
Is my information secure?
Calisto is committed to protecting the privacy and personal data of its customers and website users. We will never sell your information to a third party, and we are fully compliant with the European Union's General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR).
