Owner-first short stay management, run locally in Adelaide

Adelaide Short Stays is a boutique coastal operator based at 278 Anzac Hwy, Plympton SA 5038. We manage a focused portfolio across Glenelg, Glenelg North, Plympton, and Port Willunga, with the care of a small team and the systems needed to keep stays running smoothly.

If you have a spare room, apartment, or whole home to share, we help you turn it into a well-presented short stay: earning on your terms, without handing your property to a distant call centre.

“Great stay for our team member! The Airbnb was clean, comfortable, and perfect for our staff member working in the area. The host was friendly and accommodating, and the space had everything we needed for a smooth and restful stay. Would definitely book again!”

★★★★★
“Great place - spacious and nicely appointed. Fantastic proximity to everything. I'd highly recommend this little unit for anyone looking to stay in Glenelg.”

Isira · Airbnb

★★★★★
“What a great little place to stay. Park the car and walk everywhere or if you do leave there's always a spot when you're back. Cool, relaxed, beachy feel as soon as you walk in. I had the place to myself but plenty of room for a couple to stay a week or more. Would definitely book again.”

Paul · Airbnb

★★★★★
“Location location! Property was perfect for me and my toddler. Clean and comfortable. Bed was lovely to sleep on. Two minute walk to the beach house arcade, playground and beach. Close to restaurants and shops. Really enjoyed our short stay and will definitely be back!”

★★★★★
“Great location, clean, and comfortable! We had a wonderful stay at Once Upon a Tide! The location was absolutely excellent and made getting around incredibly easy. On top of that, the property was spotlessly clean and very comfortable, which made it the perfect spot to relax. I highly recommend staying here!”
