Outsourced hotel revenue management means I do the job of the revenue manager for you: I watch the comp set and pace every day, move rates and restrictions, manage the OTAs, forecast demand and report each month. You keep control of the hotel and see every decision.
What I plan around in Gran Canaria: Maspalomas, Playa del Inglés and Puerto de Mogán winter sun; Las Palmas city, Las Canteras beach and remote workers; Maspalomas Pride and Carnival; Hiking in the interior around Roque Nublo. Guests I price for: Scandinavian, British and German winter-sun visitors on 7 to 21 night stays, and digital nomads in Las Palmas. Where I start: Long winter stays priced by length, Carnival and Pride premiums, and Canary holiday rental rules.
For Gran Canaria hotels I work on the mix of tour operator, OTA and direct business, the long-stay winter guest from Scandinavia and Germany, and the event weeks in Maspalomas, drawing on my years in five-star chain hotel revenue where length-of-stay controls were part of the daily routine.
The service in general is described on my outsourced revenue management page; this page covers how I apply it in Gran Canaria.
I monitor your comp set and booking pace every day and move rates, rate plans and restrictions as demand shifts, room type by room type.
I manage the channel mix, parity and promotions together across Booking.com, Expedia, Agoda, Google and your own site, so cost of sale does not eat the gain.
On the higher plans I forecast demand by month and segment, build the annual budget and keep a 12-month pricing calendar tied to the market's real dates.
You get a monthly performance summary, a full ADR, occupancy and RevPAR report on Plus and Pro, and on Pro a monthly strategy call and a quarterly review.
Running revenue for a Gran Canaria hotel means managing long winter stays, tour operator contracts from Scandinavia, Britain and Germany, and sharp event peaks for Carnival and the two Pride weeks in Maspalomas. I price stay length as carefully as the nightly rate, release operator rooms on time, and keep Las Palmas city hotels on a separate business and leisure curve.
I start by reviewing last winter's stays by length and source market, so I can see where long bookings displaced better-paying shorter ones.
Winter Pride, Christmas and the main winter-sun months fill the south, so I hold long-stay rates firm and keep the holiday weeks free from cheap monthly bookings.
Carnival in Las Palmas and Maspalomas and then Easter keep demand strong, so I price event weeks individually and ease prices once Easter passes.
The dunes, Yumbo Centre and Pride weeks make this the island's busiest resort area, so I price event weeks high and keep winter stays long.
My full Gran Canaria calendar, areas, pricing moves and the mistakes I fix are on the revenue management consultant page for Gran Canaria.
No revenue manager
The role left or was never hired, and rooms are priced between other duties.
Results have plateaued
RevPAR has stopped moving while the comp set keeps learning.
More than one property
You want one consistent method across a small group without building a department.
An owner or asset manager
You want decisions made by a specialist and reported in numbers you can check.
Room count, room types, channels and the systems you use. I confirm the plan level and the monthly price for your size.
I study your market, comp set and current rates, set up the strategy and connect your PMS or channel manager and pricing tool.
I adjust rates, restrictions and promotions as demand moves, and manage your OTAs on Plus and Pro.
Step 4
You get the report against budget and last year, and on Pro we meet monthly, so nothing I do is hidden.
Priced monthly by your hotel's size, not per room. Prices below are for a hotel of up to 20 rooms; larger hotels move up the size bands on the hotel plans page. Core, Plus and Pro, month to month, never a percentage of revenue. Hotels of 200 or more rooms, luxury properties and groups are quoted individually.

Real feedback from PriceLabs pricing strategy sessions with Alaa.
Alaa is a consummate professional! Patient, thorough, efficient and effective in communicating. He not only made savvy adjustments to my dynamic pricing strategy, but also helped me to understand the reasoning behind his methods, granting me a better understanding of the PriceLabs platform. Strong work!

Alaa was fantastic, going through each of the properties I had and gave great advice and actioned a great game plan. Would highly recommend for anyone looking to enhance their pricing strategy on PriceLabs. Alaa's experience goes beyond this which makes it very beneficial to have this holistic approach.
Property manager
Alaa helped me optimize my PriceLabs settings for my Airbnb listing and was very helpful and patient with answering any questions I had. He was also able to clearly explain why he made the changes he made, and it was obvious that he had a lot of experience in this field. I will definitely be back!

Busiest in Gran Canaria: November to April for winter sun, plus Carnival in Las Palmas and Maspalomas. November to February: Winter Pride, Christmas and the main winter-sun months fill the south, so I hold long-stay rates firm and keep the holiday weeks free from cheap monthly bookings. March to April: Carnival in Las Palmas and Maspalomas and then Easter keep demand strong, so I price event weeks individually and ease prices once Easter passes. For outsourced hotel revenue management, i raise floors and tighten minimum stays ahead of these windows and review pace every week, so the strongest dates never sell early at a shoulder rate.
For outsourced hotel revenue management, that is the first thing I check before taking on the pricing, because everything else sits on top of it. How stay length is priced, because many winter guests stay two or three weeks and the discount ladder often leaves money on the table or blocks short peak stays.
Add Maspalomas Pride in spring and Winter Pride in November. Next: lower May and June floors and sell short stays to Spanish weekenders. For outsourced hotel revenue management, i start with base rates, the seasonal calendar and restrictions, because that is where a Gran Canaria property usually leaks the most.
For outsourced hotel revenue management, in the quiet months my job is to protect the floor, close gaps with length-of-stay and last-minute rules, and keep the property visible on every channel. Quietest in Gran Canaria: May to June. July to October: Spanish families and city visitors keep the island going, so I price weekends in Las Palmas firmly and slowly raise rates in the south as winter approaches. May to June: Maspalomas Pride lifts a few days in May, otherwise demand slows, so I price those dates high and offer shorter stays to Spanish and European visitors.
Pride and Carnival weeks priced late and winter stays priced per night with no reward for length. I look for these first when I review outsourced hotel revenue management in Gran Canaria, and fixing them is usually the quickest gain.
For outsourced hotel revenue management in Gran Canaria, i manage channel mix, parity and promotions together, so the cheapest route to a booking is not the most expensive one for you. Gran Canaria sells mostly through Booking.com, Airbnb, Vrbo and tour operators. May to June: Maspalomas Pride lifts a few days in May, otherwise demand slows, so I price those dates high and offer shorter stays to Spanish and European visitors.
Playa del Inglés and Maspalomas: The dunes, Yumbo Centre and Pride weeks make this the island's busiest resort area, so I price event weeks high and keep winter stays long. Puerto de Mogán and Arguineguín and Las Palmas (Las Canteras and Vegueta) get their own treatment. For outsourced hotel revenue management, i set rates, comp sets and restrictions per area and per room or listing type, not as one citywide number.
Hiking in the interior around Roque Nublo, Maspalomas, Playa del Inglés and Puerto de Mogán winter sun and Las Palmas city, Las Canteras beach and remote workers are the dates I price first for outsourced hotel revenue management in Gran Canaria. March to April: Carnival in Las Palmas and Maspalomas and then Easter keep demand strong, so I price event weeks individually and ease prices once Easter passes.
For outsourced hotel revenue management, you get one experienced person who knows your numbers, with a small team and a tool stack behind me, and no account-manager layer in between. I have optimized 100+ properties in and around Gran Canaria and work remotely in Western European Time (UTC+0). Locally, that shows up in decisions like this: price Las Palmas and Maspalomas Carnival weeks as event premiums.
Hotel revenue management plans are priced monthly by hotel size, with Core from $650 a month, Plus adding channel and segment optimization and Pro adding forecasting and a monthly strategy call. They run month to month and are never a percentage of revenue. The scope of outsourced hotel revenue management is the same in every market, but the plan is not: in Gran Canaria I would start from November to February: Winter Pride, Christmas and the main winter-sun months fill the south, so I hold long-stay rates firm and keep the holiday weeks free from cheap monthly bookings.
