Hotel revenue management consulting is an independent review followed by a plan. I look at 12 to 24 months of your own data, shop your comp set, and find where rates, restrictions or channels are costing you money. Unlike outsourcing, I do not make your daily decisions; your team does, with a better plan.
This is my view of Puerto Vallarta. Puerto Vallarta mixes snowbirds on monthly stays with holiday visitors, while Sayulita and Punta Mita sell surf and luxury. It is also one of Mexico's most important LGBTQ+ destinations. Semana Santa brings domestic travellers. Returning winter guests often book the same place every year, so reviewing monthly rates before renewals keeps pricing in line with the market.
For a Vallarta condo or a few homes along the bay, I review how returning winter guests are priced, how each property compares against its own village, and whether Christmas, Semana Santa and Pride carry the premiums they should, then hand you a plan for the whole year.
The service in general is described on my hotel revenue management consulting page; this page covers how I apply it in Puerto Vallarta.
A review of the last 12 to 24 months: pricing decisions, rate architecture, restrictions, channel mix and cost, comp-set position, pace and the systems behind them, with every gap ranked by value.
Base rates and floors per room type, BAR levels tied to occupancy and pace, seasonal and event calendars and restrictions, written as a 12-month calendar your team can run.
Which channels to sell on, at what rate and with which promotions, so the mix protects margin: OTAs, corporate, wholesale, metasearch and direct.
A demand forecast, an annual budget, weekly pace reports and a workshop for your team, plus honest advice on revenue systems before you sign for one.

Snowbirds return and US Thanksgiving fills homes, so I confirm monthly winter rates early and keep the nightly rate firm for the weeks just before Christmas.
I hold the highest rates with a seven night minimum, especially in Conchas Chinas and the Zona Romántica, where returning guests compete with first-time holiday visitors.
Monthly guests fill much of the season, so I price the remaining open nights by week, then build Semana Santa as a separate band for Mexican families heading to the beach.
Vallarta Pride in May gets its own premium in the Zona Romántica; the rest of early summer suits shorter stays and domestic weekend travellers from Guadalajara.
Heat, humidity and storm risk thin demand, so I keep a cost-covering floor, loosen minimum stays and prepare monthly winter rates for the next snowbird season.
Build monthly winter rates for snowbirds.
Price Christmas to New Year and Semana Santa as top bands.
Price Sayulita and Punta Mita separately.
Add Pride week as a premium.
Lower August to October floors.
Performance has flattened
RevPAR is stuck while the market around you moves on.
Opening, renovating or rebranding
A new positioning needs a pricing and distribution strategy built from scratch.
An owner wants a second opinion
You need the operator's numbers checked by someone outside the hotel.
You have a team but want a better plan
Someone prices today and wants an audit, a calendar and training.
Thirty minutes on your property, your market and where you think revenue leaks. I scope the work and confirm the price before starting.
With read-only access to your PMS, channel manager and extranets I analyse the data, shop your comp set and talk to whoever sets rates today.
A written report and a working session: the gaps ranked by value, the strategy to close them and a 12-month calendar.
Step 4
I can set the strategy up in your systems, train your team and check in monthly, or run it for you as outsourced management.
Every engagement is fixed-scope and fixed-price. After a free discovery call you get the scope and the price in writing before any work starts. Training days and monthly check-ins are quoted separately.

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!

For hotel revenue management consulting, that is where my audit begins, because a finding here changes every recommendation after it. How steep the walk or drive is from the home to the beach and the Malecón, since hillside homes with great views lose bookings when the listing hides the climb.
Busiest in Puerto Vallarta: November to April, with Christmas to New Year and Semana Santa the highest. January to April: Monthly guests fill much of the season, so I price the remaining open nights by week, then build Semana Santa as a separate band for Mexican families heading to the beach. November to mid-December: Snowbirds return and US Thanksgiving fills homes, so I confirm monthly winter rates early and keep the nightly rate firm for the weeks just before Christmas. For hotel revenue management consulting, my audit tests whether your current rates and restrictions capture these windows, and the 12-month calendar I hand over sets them in advance.
Monthly winter rate cards, holiday premiums, and rainy-season floors. For hotel revenue management consulting, I check every recommendation against the Puerto Vallarta calendar before I make it. May to July: Vallarta Pride in May gets its own premium in the Zona Romántica; the rest of early summer suits shorter stays and domestic weekend travellers from Guadalajara.
Puerto Vallarta mixes snowbirds on monthly stays with holiday visitors, while Sayulita and Punta Mita sell surf and luxury. It is also one of Mexico's most important LGBTQ+ destinations. That is the view I bring to hotel revenue management consulting in Puerto Vallarta.
Results depend on the property, the starting point and the season, so I do not promise a number. In Puerto Vallarta the first gains from hotel revenue management consulting usually come from the change with the clearest local signal: price Christmas to New Year and Semana Santa as top bands. I review progress against your own occupancy, ADR and RevPAR, not a market average.
Puerto Vallarta sells mostly through Airbnb, Vrbo, Booking.com and Expedia. January to April: Monthly guests fill much of the season, so I price the remaining open nights by week, then build Semana Santa as a separate band for Mexican families heading to the beach. For hotel revenue management consulting in Puerto Vallarta, my distribution review covers each channel's cost, contribution and rate position, then recommends a mix.
For hotel revenue management consulting, i begin with 12 to 24 months of your own data, so the first findings are about your property in Puerto Vallarta, not the city. Price Sayulita and Punta Mita separately. Next: lower August to October floors.
Bucerías: A calmer beach town across the bay in Riviera Nayarit; I position it for families and snowbirds who want space, priced below Sayulita and Punta Mita. Zona Romántica and Conchas Chinas get their own treatment. For hotel revenue management consulting, i review your comp set and rate position for your own part of Puerto Vallarta, not the market average.
