Do you have a property in Genoa
that could earn more?
Your property is vacant and it's costing you
Condo fees, property tax, utilities... an empty property is not just a missed opportunity, it's a fixed monthly expense. Holiday rentals can transform it into concrete income — and unlike student tenants — they return it like new.
You manage it alone and you're exhausted by doing it yourself
Messages at midnight, check-in on Sunday, chasing cleaning schedules. And then the bureaucracy: Guest registration, tourist tax, CIN, police reports, flat-rate taxation... unpaid second job.
You put it in management, but it's not working as you expected
Few bookings, low prices, no communication, too much maintenance on your part. Not everyone knows Genoa — and Genoa has its own rules, its own seasonality, its own guests. A Booking listing isn't enough.
After 10 years, your property is still like new.
Think of a property rented to students or a 4+4 contract. Who knows if you get your money and after 10 years work is needed: floors, bathroom, walls, furniture.
With holiday rentals it's different. Guaranteed income and cleaning and inspection after every single guest. Small problems resolved immediately. After 10 years you've made money and your property is like when you entrusted it to us. Often better.
Traditional rental
After 10 years: heavy wear, renovation needed
Managed holiday rental
After 10 years: regular maintenance, like new
We welcome with passion.
For you, we manage everything.
We are genovabb.it — we've managed short-term rental properties in Genova since 2015. We're not a Milan-based platform or a startup: we're here in the city with a real office and our own team. We know every neighbourhood, every season, every type of guest.
Over the years we've learned one thing: it's the management that makes the difference, not the platform. That's why we do everything in-house — check-in, cleaning, maintenance, guest communication — with our own team. No outsourcing.
Two options, one goal:
get the maximum from your property.
Every owner is different. Some seek the security of guaranteed income, others prefer to maximise earnings by taking on some risk. That's why we offer two formulas — like when you choose a fixed or variable mortgage for your home: which suits you?
Safe Formula
- Receive a fixed monthly transfer, 12 months a year
- Guaranteed even in winter, even when it rains, even in times of crisis
- We absorb all the business risk
- Routine maintenance at our expense
- Utilities, condominium fees and WiFi included in rent
- Tax optimisation: we separate fee and expense reimbursement
Variable Formula
- Earnings based on actual bookings
- Our fee: 30% of the share net of portal commissions
- Higher earning potential on an annual basis
- In weak months you will certainly earn less than the fixed fee
- If the property isn't booked, the earnings are zero for both of us
- You can use the property for yourself (with certain conditions)
- 12-month renewable contract, no penalty
With both options,
we manage everything.

Eran due anni che c'avevo una casa in centro storico bella vuota. Col mercato degli affitti lunghi non mi fidavo — troppi casini con gli studenti. Poi un amico m'ha detto "senti quelli di genovabb.it che fan turistico." Li ho chiamati, son venuti, ci siamo accordati e in meno di un mese ero a regime. Ho scelto il canone fisso perché volevo stare tranquillo. Mi arriva il bonifico ogni mese puntuale come uno svizzero.
Il mio bilocale su Airbnb lo facevo da sola. All'inizio mi divertiva, poi è diventato un delirio: messaggi alle 11 di sera, sabato mattina alle 7 ad aspettare, le pulizie... Ho googlato, trovato questi, li ho chiamati: "prendetevi tutto per favore." Mi sono ripresa le giornate. Ci guadagno pure di più perché loro coi prezzi ci sanno fare. La burocrazia poi — mamma mia, solo quella è un lavoro.
I was with another manager but it wasn't working: few bookings, low prices, three days to get a response. I found genovabb.it through a neighbour. They know when the Boat Show is, the cruise ships, when to raise rates and when to offer discounts. They know Genova like the back of their hand. After a year, my income went up by 35-40%.
I inherited my grandmother's flat in Nervi and didn't know what to do with it. Long-term rental? No thanks, too risky. Sell? Emotionally impossible. Then I discovered I could do holiday rentals and contacted genovabb.it. Now grandmother's house generates income and I don't have to worry about anything.
I have two two-bedroom flats in the Fair area. I had them on traditional student rentals. Every year a nightmare: someone doesn't pay, someone breaks things, someone leaves halfway through the year. I converted everything to tourism with genovabb.it. I earn a bit more and most importantly the properties are kept in immaculate condition. I would never go back.
I work abroad and needed someone to manage my three-bedroom flat in complete autonomy. I tried with a girl I found on the internet: disaster. Then I switched to genovabb.it with the fixed fee and I haven't thought about it since. The transfer arrives, the property is in order, I enjoy my life in London.
Sono pensionata e il mio piccolo appartamento in centro mi dà una seconda entrata che mi fa comodo. All'inizio avevo paura dei turisti — "ma chi me lo fa fare?" Mi hanno rassicurata, spiegato tutto, fatto vedere i numeri. Dopo due anni son contentissima. E i turisti? Gente per bene, molto più educata degli studenti che avevo prima.
In the first year I chose the variable formula because I wanted to understand how much could actually be earned. Result: much more than I thought. Summer went very strong with the Boat Show and cruises. This year I'm considering adding a second property.
We had a property in Sampierdarena that we couldn't rent. A difficult area, everyone said. genovabb.it surprised us: they knew how to position it well, they photographed it to look like a hotel, and now it's doing brilliantly. I never would have believed it.
As an accountant I appreciate the tax aspect. genovabb.it knows how the separation of fees and expenses works, flat-rate taxation, CU... for an owner who wants to do things properly without going crazy it's enormous value. And the personal touch: they always respond, they're transparent, regular reports.
Everything you want to know.
It depends on which option you choose. With the Fixed Option you have no costs: we pay you a guaranteed fixed monthly fee. With the Variable Option our fee is 30% of the net amount after platform commissions. In other words, we only make money when you make money — our interests are perfectly aligned with yours.
With the Variable Option yes: the first 7 nights per year are free, after which a fee applies for lost income. Just give us reasonable notice. With the Fixed Option, the property is at our disposal for the entire contract period, but we can agree exceptions on a case-by-case basis.
The Variable Formula has a 12-month renewable contract with no exit penalty. For the Safe Formula we discuss the duration together during negotiations — we prefer to build long-term relationships that benefit both parties, but we're flexible and open to finding the best solution for you.
Absolutely not. We create everything from scratch: professional photography, optimised texts in multiple languages, publication on all major booking channels (Booking, Airbnb, Expedia, VRBO and over 10 others). If you already have active listings, we enhance and optimise them to maximise visibility and bookings.
Short-term rental income can benefit from the flat-rate tax regime, with preferential rates varying according to the number of properties and management method. The 2026 Budget Law introduced important innovations in this area. Each owner has a different tax profile, with significant differences that need to be carefully evaluated and planned. We recommend discussing with a trusted accountant to identify the most advantageous solution for your specific situation.
In over 10 years of operation we have never dealt with serious damage. We perform a thorough check of the property after every single check-out, which prevents the accumulation of micro-problems. For the rare cases of damage by guests, platforms like Airbnb and Booking offer host protection programmes and our documentation procedures guarantee reimbursement. With the Safe Formula routine maintenance is entirely our responsibility.
We manage properties throughout the city: Centro Storico, Castelletto, Carignano, Foce, Brignole, Nervi, Pegli, Quinto, Sampierdarena... and other areas. If your property is in Genoa or in the immediate hinterland, we can evaluate it. Some areas are more profitable than others, and our simulator takes this into account.
From the property survey to the first booking typically takes 2-4 weeks. During this time we handle everything: professional photography, creating listings, pricing optimisation, platform setup. If the property is already furnished and ready, we can be even faster.
