Practical strategies delivering measurable results
We joined Wealthflo while building and growing our short-term accommodation business, Cara Luxe Stays, and one of the things we have valued most is how practical the course has been.
The course isn't just about theory. We have been able to take what we have learned and apply it directly to our business, particularly around pricing strategy, property presentation, listing optimisation, understanding our market and approaching short-term accommodation as a business.
We started actively applying a number of these learnings during August 2026, and we are already seeing encouraging measurable results.
Our September occupancy has reached 68%, compared with 55% across the current quarter, representing approximately a 24% relative improvement in occupancy. At the same time, our average nightly rate has increased by approximately 13%.
What has been particularly encouraging is that we haven't had to lower our nightly rates to achieve higher occupancy. Our revenue per available listing night has increased by approximately 41%, and by 22 September our monthly revenue is already approximately 56% higher than July.
Of course, there are a number of factors that contribute to business performance, but applying the principles we have learned through Wealthflo has helped us become much more strategic and deliberate about how we price, present and operate our properties.
We are still relatively early in our journey and continuing to grow Cara Luxe Stays, but having a framework to follow has given us much greater confidence in the decisions we are making.
The support has also been a big part of the experience. Being able to ask questions and receive guidance as we put the course learnings into practice has been extremely valuable.
We are very pleased with the progress we are seeing and look forward to continuing to apply what we have learned as we grow our business.
