After 20 years managing tourism rentals as well as apartments for short- and medium-term stays, Lodging Management has just ventured into room rental in Barcelona with its new business unit: Coliving Lodging. This latest project is geared towards a growing and diverse market seeking accommodation that goes beyond a simple place to rest their head. At the helm is Mélanie Lepelley, who returns to Lodging after a successful detour into luxury sector customer service. Lepelley’s experience complements that of Lodging, with a strategy aimed at the discerning tenant who wants her accommodation to offer both services and the opportunity to develop social relationships.
With more than two decades of operation and tens of thousands of reservations handled in Barcelona, Lodging is expanding its offer and diving into Coliving. This model has already arrived in the world’s most dynamic cities to serve the radical changes in lifestyle, housing expectations and social relationships that have come about over the last 10 years. Leveraging its expertise in flexible accommodation, Lodging Management is now transforming apartments with three or more bedrooms into shared spaces with premium services.
Coliving Lodging is suitable for the general public but will be of particular interest to international students, digital nomads and expat professionals who value living in a comfortable and safe environment that offers the possibility of developing a social network. Each room is rented under an individual contract, while the common areas are inspected and cleaned weekly. The selection of tenants is rigorous, guaranteeing solvent tenants who will get along with one another.
Full management gives owners peace of mind
As with our holiday rentals and monthly rental services, Lodging Management offers comprehensive management to owners with our Coliving model. Work begins with detailed analysis of the property, then continues to any minor adaptations necessary, such as retouches and homestyling. Lodging also handles all the promotion of the rentals, contract management, payments, incidents, housekeeping, and monitoring of expenditures. Our commitment is always to quality, technological innovation, sustainability and transparency, the values that have always defined our company’s identity.
Coliving Lodging is not only a new avenue of growth for Lodging Management, but a response to a growing phenomenon in global cities: the desire to live in a community without sacrificing quality, flexibility or security. Barcelona is the epicenter of Coliving in Europe, and Lodging Management is well positioned to optimize this new model of living in the city.
For owners with large apartments in Barcelona that want to explore ways to optimize their income and reduce the time they spend on management, Coliving Lodging can offer you a personalized study under no obligation. If you’re ready to transform your property into a more profitable, secure venture that’s adapted to today’s market, contact us.
