We had an amazing stay! Husnain Mumtaz was an outstanding host—very welcoming, friendly, and responsive from the moment we arrived. He made the whole check-in process smooth and ensured we had everything we needed.
The apartment was spotless, modern, and exactly as described. The highlight was definitely the breathtaking view of the Burj Khalifa and the Dubai Fountain. Watching the fountain show from the apartment was an unforgettable experience.

FAQs
Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know about partnering with Gardenia.
How much does your service cost?
There are no listing fees or upfront costs to get started. Gardenia charges a competitive management fee that covers A to Z care of your holiday home, and your exact rate depends on your property and requirements. Request a free estimate and our team will share the full details.
How much can I earn from my holiday home?
Your earnings depend on your property's location, size, view, furnishing and how many nights a year it's available. Request a free estimate and we'll prepare a personalised income forecast for your property based on current demand in your area.
How do you decide the nightly rate for my property?
Every property is different, so we set your rates based on your building, view, facilities and furnishing, then adjust them throughout the year in line with seasonal demand and major Dubai events. The aim is to keep your home competitive and well booked without underpricing it.
How do I list my property, and how long until it's live?
Fill in the form and our team will call you to learn about your property, then visit to assess it and confirm your estimate. Once you sign the management agreement, we take care of your holiday home permit, professional photoshoot, listing and pricing. Timing depends mainly on the permit and whether the home needs furnishing or styling, so we'll give you a firm go-live date after our visit.
What are the requirements to rent my property?
Your home needs to be fully furnished to DET (formerly DTCM) holiday home standards, with all appliances working and the required safety equipment in place, such as a fire extinguisher, smoke detector and first aid kit. If your property is unfurnished or missing a few items, our team can help you furnish it and get it guest-ready. We currently accept properties in Dubai's prime areas, so if you're unsure whether your building qualifies, add it to the form and we'll confirm.
Which areas of Dubai do you manage?
We manage properties in Dubai's prime areas, including Downtown Dubai, Dubai Marina, Palm Jumeirah, JBR, Bluewaters Island, La Mer, Port de La Mer, Business Bay, Dubai Creek Harbour, Al Jaddaf, JLT, JVC, Al Furjan, Arjan, Jumeirah Garden City, Emaar Beachfront, Dubai Harbour, Dubai Hills Estate, City Walk, DIFC, Jumeirah Village Triangle (JVT), Not sure about your building? Add it to the form and we'll confirm.
How do you find guests for my property?
We list your home across more than 20 leading booking platforms, including Airbnb and Booking.com, so your property reaches travellers from all over the world. We also take direct and repeat bookings, which means your calendar never depends on a single channel.
How do you keep my property safe and secure?
Every guest is verified and registered as required by DET before check-in, and we collect a security deposit for every stay. We arrange third-party liability insurance before your property goes live, make sure all required safety equipment is in place, and check your home against a full inventory after every stay.
What happens if something is damaged during a guest's stay?
Your home is inspected and reset after every stay, and every item is logged in our inventory, so damage is identified and recorded quickly. If a guest causes damage, the guest is charged for it, not you, and our team arranges the repair.
What happens if there's an electrical, plumbing or maintenance issue?
If something stops working on its own, such as an appliance failure or a plumbing problem, the repair cost is the owner's, but you don't have to deal with it yourself: we arrange the technician, keep the guest looked after and get it fixed as quickly as possible. For anything major, we'll contact you for approval first, and we recommend holding an annual maintenance contract to avoid unexpected costs.
What are my responsibilities as the property owner?
Very few. You keep service charges and utilities paid on time so guests always have access to the building's facilities, cover repairs for normal wear and tear, and sign off on any major repairs or upgrades. If it's more convenient, we can also pay service charges and utilities on your behalf in some cases, which we'll agree with you individually.
What does Gardenia take care of?
Everything else, from start to finish. We handle your permit, photoshoot and listings, set and manage your pricing, verify and register every guest, collect security deposits, manage all bookings and guest communication, arrange cleaning and maintenance, and collect rent along with the required tourism fees.
How and when do I get paid?
You're paid monthly, by the 15th of each month, straight to your bank account after the management fee and any expenses are deducted. Before each payment, we send you a statement of account showing every booking, fee and expense.
Can I see when my property is booked and how it's performing?
Yes, live. Your Owner Portal shows every booking, payout, cleaning and maintenance update as it happens, from your phone or laptop.
Is my property legally compliant for short-term rentals in Dubai?
Yes. As a licensed DET (formerly DTCM) holiday home operator, we register your property correctly from day one and keep it compliant, including your holiday home permit, guest registration and Tourism Dirham fees.
Is there a contract or any lock-in?
There's a simple management agreement, but no lock-in: no minimum term and no cancellation fees if you ever decide to leave. We'd rather keep you with results than with paperwork.
