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 Seychelles. The Seychelles are a honeymoon and luxury market with limited supply. Couples stay a week or more, often across Mahé, Praslin and La Digue. Self-catering units need a licence. Island logistics matter to guests. Supply is limited and costs are high, so the goal is protecting rate in peak weeks rather than chasing occupancy with discounts that the market does not need. Island-hopping is common, so flexible stays and clear ferry and flight information help guests plan around several islands.
For Seychelles owners I start with licensing, beach orientation and island logistics, then review how your rates move across the two monsoon seasons. I build a clear plan for honeymoon peaks, diving months and European holidays, so you protect rate in busy weeks and use smart stay rules when demand drops.
The service in general is described on my hotel revenue management consulting page; this page covers how I apply it in Seychelles.
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.

Christmas and New Year bring the most honeymooners and families, so I hold week-long minimums and price the festive dates as the top band.
The northwest monsoon brings humidity and showers, but Europeans still escape winter, so I keep rates firm on Mahé and Praslin and allow slightly shorter stays.
Calm seas and clear water make this a favourite window for diving and snorkelling, so I raise beachfront rates and target couples with ten-night stays.
Southeast trade winds affect some beaches, but European summer holidays drive demand, so I price sheltered homes higher and exposed ones a little lower.
The quietest stretch even as seas calm again, so I protect the nightly floor, add value through longer stays or included transfers, and target Gulf travellers on short breaks.
Price December to January and April to May as top bands.
Use weekly stays.
Price by island and beach access.
Include ferry logistics in listing information.
Confirm self-catering licensing.
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!
Airbnb host
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. Whether ferry and flight links to Praslin and La Digue are explained, with check-in times that match the schedules, because late arrivals and early departures are common for island-hopping couples.
Busiest in Seychelles: December to January and April to May, plus July to August European holidays. April to May: Calm seas and clear water make this a favourite window for diving and snorkelling, so I raise beachfront rates and target couples with ten-night stays. June to August: Southeast trade winds affect some beaches, but European summer holidays drive demand, so I price sheltered homes higher and exposed ones a little lower. 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.
Holiday premiums, weekly pricing, and self-catering licence compliance. For hotel revenue management consulting, I check every recommendation against the Seychelles calendar before I make it. June to August: Southeast trade winds affect some beaches, but European summer holidays drive demand, so I price sheltered homes higher and exposed ones a little lower.
Supply is limited and costs are high, so the goal is protecting rate in peak weeks rather than chasing occupancy with discounts that the market does not need. Island-hopping is common, so flexible stays and clear ferry and flight information help guests plan around several islands. That is the view I bring to hotel revenue management consulting in Seychelles.
Results depend on the property, the starting point and the season, so I do not promise a number. In Seychelles the first gains from hotel revenue management consulting usually come from the change with the clearest local signal: use weekly stays. I review progress against your own occupancy, ADR and RevPAR, not a market average.
Seychelles sells mostly through Airbnb and Booking.com. April to May: Calm seas and clear water make this a favourite window for diving and snorkelling, so I raise beachfront rates and target couples with ten-night stays.

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 Seychelles, not the city. Price by island and beach access. Next: confirm self-catering licensing.
La Digue: A small island where bicycles replace cars; I price for charm stays of three or four nights and keep rates high because supply is tight. Beau Vallon, Mahé and Côte d'Or, Praslin get their own treatment. For hotel revenue management consulting, i review your comp set and rate position for your own part of Seychelles, not the market average.
