Your guest reviews, handled.
Monitored across Booking.com, Google and Airbnb. Answered in your voice within 24–48 hours. And a monthly report you can put in front of every property owner.
Australian owned and run · No jargon · No lock-in
Unanswered reviews are costing you owners, not just bookings.
Under 4.0, you’re invisible.
Guests filter accommodation to “4+ stars” on Google, Booking.com, Expedia and Airbnb — it’s the default cut-off the platforms offer. Under that line a property is silently dropped from the shortlist before anyone reads a word about it. In one Brisbane portfolio we audited, five of the six listings with a real review presence sat under 4.0 — two of them at 3.9, one sustained run of answered reviews away from re-entering the filters.
Ratings price your rooms.
The most-cited study in hospitality (Cornell, 9,500+ hotels) found a one-point lift on a five-point scale lets a property raise rates about 11% without losing occupancy — roughly 1.1% of room revenue per 0.1★. For a mid-size operation that’s in the order of A$50,000–A$110,000 a year per 0.1★. Illustrative — your Health Check runs it on your own numbers.
The bar is low. Clear it.
In that same audit, ~2,060 reviews sat unanswered across one operator’s portfolio — zero owner replies on the 86 most recent, across every listing. Meanwhile a competitor on the same street answers about 70% of theirs, including the angry ones, usually within days. No operator we scanned does it consistently on every platform. That consistency is the whole opportunity.

The monthly Owner Report — one per property
It’s the page you hand your owners at renewal time. Software can aggregate reviews for a few dollars a month; it can’t answer them properly every day and turn the results into something that keeps your owners with you.

At 50 listings, Full Service works out around A$16 per listing per month. The big reputation platforms charge several hundred dollars per location — and most don’t touch Airbnb or Booking.com guest reviews at all. We count listings with a live review presence, not your door count — buildings whose reviews pool into one listing count once.
