Absolutely thrilled with Casiola! They’ve taken care of everything for my Yotel property in Miami, and the results have been outstanding. Professional, efficient, and always a pleasure to work with. 10 stars if I could! Highly recommend.

Background
September and October are historically the low season for all vacation homes in Orlando, FL. Some of Casiola’s owners tell us that before they joined, they had struck out during previous years with zero bookings for one or both months.
Since we founded Casiola, we have always generated bookings for our owners during the low season. By setting low but reasonable, and competitive, rates, we’ve ensured that our owners are making the most rental income possible during these slow months. Our secret to determining the right rates for the season is custom revenue management using our dynamic pricing model.
In early 2017, we rolled out our dynamic pricing model which gave us dramatically better results when compared with the previous years’ averages. These improved results occurred every month, but when we looked at September’s numbers we confirmed that we were doing the right thing.
Solution
At Casiola, we go through a step-by-step process to determine the optimum rate for your vacation home:
- Evaluate previous rental performance & current worth: We use your historical rental data and assess your current value to help us identify opportunities to increase your rental income.
- Get to know our owners’ competition: We compare 200+ comparable units in the immediate vicinity.
- Identify unique selling propositions for each of the units under our care: We tailor your listing to showcase the best feature your vacation home has to offer to increase market rental value. If your highest selling proposition is the kitchen, then we emphasis that!
- Thoroughly understand your unit’s booking potential: Every vacation home Casiola manages in Orlando FL, has from 200 to 365 rate variations. Each rate criteria are based on your unit’s attributes, scheduled local events, as well as nearby attractions such as convention centers or theme parks. This maximizes your rental income potential!
- Set rental goals for each vacation home: Regardless of which pricing model (performance based or fixed monthly income) our owners participate in, we work with our owners to meet or exceed their monthly rental goals. Our agents are trained in this balancing act between ADR (average daily rates), occupancy rates and Power Marketing so that owners can meet their goals worry free. Leave the grunt work to us!
I’ve been working with Casiola Aruba for a while now, and overall, it’s been a great experience. As a homeowner in Terra del Sol, I wanted a reliable company to manage my vacation rental, and Casiola has delivered on that front. The booking process has been smooth, and my property is always well taken care of. Their communication is excellent, and I really appreciate the regular updates on guest feedback and property performance.
The reason for the 4 stars instead of 5 is that there were a couple of small maintenance issues that took a little longer to resolve than I expected, but other than that, the service has been top-notch. I’m seeing solid occupancy rates, and my guests are happy, which makes me confident in my choice.
I’d definitely recommend Casiola Aruba to other property owners looking for a professional and trustworthy vacation rental management team.
Working with Casiola Orlando has been an incredible experience. As a property owner in Championsgate, I was looking for a management company that would not only take care of the property but also help me maximize my rental income. From the first moment I reached out, the team at Casiola made everything seamless. Their attention to detail, commitment to guest satisfaction, and professional approach have been outstanding.
I’ve seen a significant increase in bookings, and their marketing efforts are top-notch. The property is always well-maintained, and I get regular updates, so I never have to worry. What I appreciate the most is how Casiola values transparency and keeps me in the loop, making me feel like I’m an integral part of the process.
I’m glad I chose Casiola Orlando to manage my property, and I would highly recommend them to any owner looking for a reliable, professional vacation home management company. It’s been a great partnership!
Moving back to the Netherlands from Aruba meant we needed someone we could trust to look after our property. We went with Casiola because their fees are low and they have a great linen service. We’ve been super happy with how they handle everything for us. It’s a huge relief to know our home is in good hands even though we’re so far away. We’d definitely recommend Casiola to anyone looking for reliable property management.

I bought my property in 2021 and have been working with Casiola for property management ever since. Being from Brazil, I really appreciate their support in Portuguese—it makes everything so much easier and comfortable for me. Casiola has been incredibly helpful, responsive, and professional throughout our collaboration. They truly stand out as the best property management company I’ve worked with. I couldn’t be happier with their service!
