Sassi Villas

For Property Owners

A new standard for villa management
in Puglia.

Sassi Villas is a luxury-first villa management and booking platform built for Puglia. We work with owners of villas, masserias, and trulli who want their home positioned, presented, and operated to a luxury standard.

Commission-only. No setup fees, no onboarding fees, no subscriptions.

A specialist, not a platform

Built for a region we know,
on a platform we control.

Our partners, our knowledge of the area, and our operational network are all concentrated in Puglia. We are not a generic villa platform expanding into a region; we are a specialist operator built for it.

Our booking platform, property management system, channel manager, and owner dashboard are all built in-house and live. That means cleaner reporting, a faster pace of improvement, and a direct-booking environment built to a luxury web standard, rather than a templated PMS front-end.

What sits behind every plan

Considered in every detail,
across every home.

The Collection Standard

A defined presentation and experience standard applied across every home under Full Property Management. Curated amenities, subtle brand touches, and a consistent atmosphere beneath each home’s own character.

Full Property Management

A proprietary platform

Our booking platform, PMS, channel manager, and owner dashboard are all built in-house. That means a direct-booking site built to a luxury standard and a faster pace of improvement than any third-party stack.

All plans

Intelligent and human guest care

Our AI-assisted guest concierge handles around 99% of routine guest questions instantly (check-in, wifi, local recommendations, simple logistics). On Plan 01, anything it can't resolve passes to you. On Plan 02, our team takes the escalations.

All plans

Property protection, quietly done

Non-invasive, privacy-conscious monitoring through our partnership with Minut. Excessive noise, smoking, unusual occupancy, and internal climate. No cameras, no microphones recording conversations.

Full Property Management

Services and experiences

Through Holiday PA, guests have access to a curated range of premium in-villa services and local experiences. Enhances the stay and creates an additional revenue stream for owners on qualifying bookings.

All plans

Dynamic pricing and distribution

Active rate strategy across seasonality, demand, and booking pace, combined with channel management across the booking platforms that matter, alongside our direct site.

Full Property Management

Owner dashboard and reporting

Bookings, revenue, occupancy, reviews, and operational activity in one place. No spreadsheet chases, no fragmented updates, no third-party front-end in the way.

All plans

GEO and SEO visibility

Every property benefits from active optimisation across traditional search engines and modern AI-driven discovery surfaces, so the home is found by the right guests through the channels they actually use.

Answers for owners

Common questions,
answered directly.

More detail on plans, partnerships, and how we manage homes sits in the full frequently asked questions.

Sassi Villas provides a luxury-first management and booking service for high-standard properties in Puglia. We work across two commission-only plans: Platform Listing and Full Property Management. Each plan is designed for a different type of owner, from owners who prefer to run their own operations to a fully hands-off partnership.

Sassi Villas is commission-only. Platform Listing is 5%, charged only on bookings generated through the Sassi Villas platform. Full Property Management is 20% of rental income after OTA platform fees are deducted. There are no setup, onboarding, photography, or subscription fees on either plan.

Platform Listing keeps pricing, distribution beyond the Sassi Villas platform, and day-to-day operations with the owner. Our AI-assisted guest concierge handles routine guest questions on the owner's behalf, with anything it can't resolve passed back to the owner. Full Property Management is end-to-end: full guest communication (the concierge with our team taking the escalations rather than the owner), dynamic pricing, multi-channel distribution, cleaning and maintenance coordination, property protection monitoring through Minut, professional photography, and the Collection Standard.

The Collection Standard is a defined presentation and experience standard applied to every home under Full Property Management. It covers curated in-villa amenities (soaps, towels, linens, welcome touches), subtle Sassi Villas branded details, premium partner integrations, and a consistent atmosphere across the Collection. The goal is a consistent level of care beneath each home’s own character, not to homogenise properties.

Under Full Property Management, we install non-invasive monitoring technology through our partnership with Minut. It helps enforce house rules and flag issues such as excessive noise, smoking, unusual occupancy patterns, and internal climate conditions. There are no cameras in the home and no microphones recording conversations. The technology exists to protect the property, not to watch guests.

Submit your property through the form on the owners page. If we think we can do right by your home, we will be in touch to discuss the right plan and the onboarding process. Founding properties are being accepted now ahead of our summer 2026 launch, which means more attention per home and a direct say in how the Collection takes shape.
