In just a moment you'll meet Steven and Kylee Niederhauser, the founders of Arrivls, a boutique vacation rentals management company based in San Diego, California.
Steven and Kylee have always loved to travel. They are the kind of people that would rather book a last-minute weekend getaway than wine and dine at California's latest Michelin star restaurant.
After traveling in Europe for four years, they decided to move to San Diego. They really wanted to live near Mission Beach but weren't sure how to make it work financially…and that's when the idea came to them.
What if they bought a duplex and rented half of the house out as an Airbnb?
And while they didn't know it at the time, this idea would ultimately enable the couple to leave their jobs and build one of Southern California's top-rated collections of short term rentals.

This week's episode is brought to you Guesty for Hosts — the bestie of top-rated Airbnb hosts.
It's 11:32 pm on a Thursday night and you wake up in a panic.
You forgot to send your guests the custom lockbox combination for your Airbnb, and you missed the 17 messages they sent saying they couldn't get in because you enabled ‚Äúsleep mode‚Äù on your iPhone — you know, to try and cut down on screen time before bed and all.
After apologizing profusely and sending them a bottle of bubbly — in hopes they won't leave you a 1-star review — you think to yourself, ‚Äúhow do other hosts stay on top of guest communications?"
The answer? They use Guesty For Hosts — an easy to use rental management platform. With features like Automated Messages that send important communications to guests at the exact right times‚Ķyou'll never have to jeopardize your beauty sleep again.
Guesty For Hosts allows short-term rental hosts to manage listings from Airbnb, VRBO, and Booking.com in one calendar and send a series of automated messages before, during, and after their stay.
The platform also has features that help you manage cleanings, build a custom booking website, and so much more.
