Fastest Growing. Top 3 Ranked. Best of Southern Utah Nominated. Stay Propr Becomes the Only Luxury Focused Vacation Rental Management Company in Southern Utah to Achieve All Three.

Property Owners Are Taking Notice. Stay Propr managed properties report 20-40% revenue increases as the region's only triple recognized luxury vacation rental management company cements its position as the definitive choice for Southern Utah property owners
ST. GEORGE, Utah - April 20, 2026 - In a short term rental market that has grown increasingly competitive and complex, one company has separated itself from the field in a way that no other luxury vacation rental management firm in Southern Utah has matched: Stay Propr has now achieved recognition across all three pillars that property owners rely on when choosing who to trust with their most valuable asset.

In the span of a single calendar year, Stay Propr has been recognized as one of the fastest growing luxury vacation rental management companies in Southern Utah, officially ranked among the Top 3 vacation rental management agencies in the region by BusinessRate, a nationally recognized business evaluation platform, and nominated for Best of Southern Utah 2026 in the vacation rental property management category. No other luxury focused short term rental management company in the Southern Utah market holds all three distinctions simultaneously.

Stay Propr founder Kevin Hafen calls it the company's Trifecta of Trust.

"Each of these recognitions measures something different, growth reflects execution, a Top 3 ranking reflects the experience we deliver to property owners, and a Best of Southern Utah nomination reflects what the community sees in us," said Hafen. "The fact that we've achieved all three at once isn't a coincidence. It's what happens when you build a company that's genuinely designed this way with intent for this segment, and for the owners who deserve more than a standard management template applied to a luxury Southern Utah property."

"Properties managed by Stay Propr have been seeing 20-40% revenue increases, regardless of whether they were previously self managed or managed by another company." - Stay Propr Portfolio Data, 2026

The Market Moment That Makes This Matter

The timing of Stay Propr's recognition aligns with an unprecedented demand window for Southern Utah vacation rentals. Searches for stays "near a national park" have surged 35 percent in 2026, according to Airbnb trend data, and Zion National Park remains one of the most in demand destinations in the American Southwest. Southern Utah's short term rental market, spanning Washington County, Kane county, Garfield county and Iron county communities including St. George, Ivins, Washington, Hurricane, and gateway corridors approaching Zion, now supports several thousand active short term rental listings across communities ranging from Entrada and Snow Canyon to Desert Color, Kayenta, Sun River, Little Valley, Washington Fields, and the Zion corridor communities of Springdale, Virgin, and LaVerkin.

Luxury properties at the upper end of the market command average daily rates between $500 and $1,000+ per night, but that ceiling is only reached by properties operating with professional management infrastructure behind them.

That reality has created a critical fork in the road for Southern Utah luxury property owners evaluating their options: continue self managing in an increasingly professional market, or partner with a company purpose built for the luxury segment. For owners who have asked "is it worth hiring a vacation rental manager in Southern Utah?" Stay Propr's portfolio data answers the question directly. Properties that move to Stay Propr management, whether previously self managed or managed by another company, have seen significant revenue increases.

"Southern Utah is no longer a secondary vacation rental market, it's a primary one," Hafen said. "Owners in places like Desert Color, Copper Rock, and Pecan Valley are sitting on exceptional assets. The ones who are still self managing or utilizing average management are competing against properties that have professional photography, daily dynamic pricing, multichannel distribution, and 24/7 guest communication systems in place. The gap is growing every season. That's the reality we want owners to understand."

What the Trifecta of Trust Means for Property Owners

For property owners searching for the best vacation rental management company in Southern Utah, the Trifecta of Trust cuts through the noise. It represents the three questions every owner is really asking when evaluating a management partner: Is this company growing because it delivers results? Has it been independently evaluated and ranked against its competitors? Does the community, the people who live and work here, trust and recognize it?

Stay Propr answers all three.

BusinessRate's Top 3 designation is based on an independent evaluation of service quality, client satisfaction, and operational reputation, it is not purchased or self reported. The Best of Southern Utah nomination is driven by community recognition across Washington County. The fastest growing designation reflects Stay Propr's triple digit percentage growth in managed properties in Southern Utah produced by owner referrals and portfolio performance, not marketing spend. And behind all three recognitions is the outcome that matters most to property owners: a 20 to 40 percent revenue increase across Stay Propr's managed portfolio, regardless of how a property was managed before.

The operational engine producing those results is what Stay Propr calls the Stay Propr Signature Standard Trademark a proprietary management approach built specifically for distinctive, high performing luxury properties. The Signature Standard Trademark integrates white glove property care and inspections, institutional grade revenue modeling, AI driven dynamic pricing, real time owner reporting, and concierge level guest hospitality into a single system. It is the reason Stay Propr properties earn more, stay in better condition, and generate the kind of owner loyalty that has driven the company's triple digit growth. It is also what separates Stay Propr from national management companies that apply broad templates to properties that deserve a purpose built standard.

Property owners describe the Stay Propr difference in straightforward terms. Nick S., who owns multiple vacation rental properties managed by Stay Propr, put it this way:

"As a property owner of multiple vacation rental homes, Stay Propr has been a breath of fresh air. Typically I see two problems with management companies, they either screw up your house and make you some money, or they take care of your home and make you very little money. I finally found a company that does both: makes me money, keeps me profitable, and takes extremely good care of my homes. On top of that, they have excellent tech and reporting components that keep me informed. Look no further for your STR management, I highly recommend them, you will not regret it." - Nick S., Multi Property Owner

"That is exactly what we set out to build," Hafen said. "The industry has trained owners to accept a tradeoff between performance and care. We reject that tradeoff entirely. Luxury properties deserve luxury management and luxury management means your home is earning at its ceiling and being treated like the asset it is."
