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 Puerto Vallarta: US and Canadian snowbirds; Sayulita and Punta Mita surf and luxury demand; Semana Santa domestic travel; LGBTQ+ travel and Pride. Guests I price for: North American couples on 5 to 7 night stays, snowbirds on monthly stays. Where I start: Monthly winter rate cards, holiday premiums, and rainy-season floors.
My background is five-star hotel revenue, so for boutique hotels in Vallarta and Riviera Nayarit I work on segmentation between snowbirds, weddings and holiday guests, on fences for Pride and Semana Santa, and on a comp set chosen by town and beach rather than by star rating.
The service in general is described on my outsourced revenue management page; this page covers how I apply it in Puerto Vallarta.
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.
“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.”
Alaa Elhadi, revenue management consultant. Cornell certified, 18 years in hotel and short-term rental revenue.
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.

Lower August to October floors.
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. 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.

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 Puerto Vallarta: November to April, with Christmas to New Year and Semana Santa the highest. 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. Christmas to New Year: 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. 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 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.
Price Sayulita and Punta Mita separately. Next: lower August to October floors. For outsourced hotel revenue management, i start with base rates, the seasonal calendar and restrictions, because that is where a Puerto Vallarta 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 Puerto Vallarta: August to October. August to October: 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. 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.
Sayulita priced like Vallarta and pride ignored. I look for these first when I review outsourced hotel revenue management in Puerto Vallarta, and fixing them is usually the quickest gain.
For outsourced hotel revenue management in Puerto Vallarta, i manage channel mix, parity and promotions together, so the cheapest route to a booking is not the most expensive one for you. Puerto Vallarta sells mostly through Airbnb, Vrbo, Booking.com and Expedia. Christmas to New Year: 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.
Zona Romántica: The heart of LGBTQ+ travel with beach clubs and restaurants; I price weekends and Pride week firmly and reward longer winter stays from returning guests. Conchas Chinas and Bucerías 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.
LGBTQ+ travel and Pride, US and Canadian snowbirds and Sayulita and Punta Mita surf and luxury demand are the dates I price first for outsourced hotel revenue management in Puerto Vallarta. August to October: 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.
