Vacation Rental Mag is a magazine about the vacation rental business, written for the people who run it: owners letting a single home, and professionals managing several. It covers the subjects that stay relevant from one season to the next — how guests choose and judge a stay, how management is becoming a profession, the technology hosts rely on, how rentals reach travellers, and how they are designed and run.
What we publish, and what we don't
We publish long-form, evergreen articles. We do not run dated news, we do not publish interviews, and we do not quote people we have not spoken to. When an article uses a figure, the figure comes from an open source that you can check yourself, and the source is named next to it — at the moment, that means public listing data from Inside Airbnb (see sources and method). Where we have no reliable number, we say so and argue from experience instead of inventing one.
Articles are signed by the Vacation Rental Mag editorial team rather than by named writers, because they are written and reviewed collectively.
Who publishes it
The magazine is published by Hexuvium Services Limited, the company behind Hexuvium, a short-term rental management business. That is where the practical side of our articles comes from: the day-to-day work of turnovers, guest messages, pricing and calendars. The magazine is editorially separate — it does not review or rank management companies, and this paragraph is the only place on the site that links to the publisher's own business.
The history of this domain
This domain has had earlier lives. In the mid-2000s it carried a page of vacation rental headlines, and around 2013 and 2014 it hosted a small travel magazine celebrating vacation rental stays. Neither has any connection with the current publication: we are not that former editorial team, and nothing from those sites is reproduced here. We kept the subject — the world of vacation rentals — and wrote everything else from scratch. Old addresses that had a clear equivalent are redirected to the closest current page.
