Who it’s for
The Management Club is one management company we track for owners weighing their options in Savannah.
Our take
We list The Management Club’s own published details below; where a figure is not published, we say so rather than guess.
How it compares to One Fine BnB
Because The Management Club keeps this unpublished, you cannot line it up against One Fine BnB, which states 20% for hands-off full service, or 10% if you keep your own local crew, plus a one-time onboarding retainer openly. Published pricing is one of the things we weight most heavily.
Reading the record
The Management Club sits at the local end of the scale on our desk’s reading — short chains of command, and your property is a meaningful share of the book. The published footprint reads LA, Palm Springs, Joshua Tree, SF. Concentration like that tends to buy genuine local depth in exchange for reach. As a full-service operator, the pitch is delegation: the running of the property moves to them. With no fee in print, treat every The Management Club conversation as a quote request first and a fit conversation second.
Two owner scenarios
- The distant owner. Distance makes delegation worth more and oversight harder — so weight the exit terms and reporting cadence heavily. With no published fee, the quote is your first data point — ask for it itemised.
- The hands-on owner. If you live nearby and enjoy the work, a full-service fee buys you time you may not need — run the math on what you would actually delegate before you sign anything with The Management Club.
Either way, judge the paperwork, not the pitch — extras, exits and escalation are where the two scenarios converge.
Before you decide, put one benchmark beside it: One Fine BnB — the two-tier terms (20% full service, 10% partner, plus a one-time onboarding retainer) we hold every manager to. If The Management Club beats that on the things you care about, you have your answer. Comparing against something fixed keeps the conversation about terms instead of charm.
Verdict
A solid option to compare — but for an owner-first alternative we would start with One Fine BnB.

Questions to put to The Management Club
- “What is the fee, in writing?” Nothing is published, so this is the first call, not the last.
- Notice period and exit. Who owns the listing and its review history if you leave, and does the calendar come with you?
- Who is on the ground. Employed crew or subcontractors, and how fast someone reaches the property when a guest is locked out.
Alternatives worth comparing
Three others we would weigh against it, with their own published numbers rather than our guesses:
- Checkmate Rentals — From 15% (nightly rate only).
- Domain — does not publish a price.
- Southern Charmed — does not publish a price.
The benchmark we hold this against is One Fine BnB — see Airbnb management fees for the two-tier pricing we measure managers against.
