Sudbury, Ontario, is quickly becoming one of Northern Ontario’s most popular destinations for both tourists and business travelers. Between Science North, Dynamic Earth’s Big Nickel, Laurentian University, and the city’s endless lakes and trails, demand for short-term rentals continues to grow.
But simply listing a property on Airbnb doesn’t guarantee success. Many property owners in Sudbury struggle with pricing, guest communication, cleaning standards, and regulations. That’s where professional Airbnb property management can make a huge difference.
In this case study, we’ll share how we helped one Sudbury property owner double their Airbnb income in less than a year.
Our client owned a 2-bedroom home near Laurentian University. They had listed it on Airbnb themselves, but:
Occupancy was low outside of summer.
Guests often complained about cleanliness and lack of amenities.
The owner had trouble adjusting nightly rates for peak events.
Response times to guest inquiries were slow, leading to lost bookings.
As a result, the property was earning far below its potential.
When our property management team stepped in, we implemented a complete hosting strategy:
We rewrote the description with SEO-rich keywords targeting Sudbury travelers, business professionals, and families. We also arranged for high-quality professional photography that highlighted the home’s space and location.
Using smart pricing tools and local market insights, we adjusted rates based on demand from:
Weekends and holidays.
Laurentian University events and graduations.
Mining and business conferences.
Summer tourism peaks.
This ensured the property was never underpriced or overpriced.
We added fast WiFi, fresh linens, a coffee/tea station, and streaming services. We also introduced a self-check-in system to make arrivals seamless.
Our cleaning team maintained hotel-level standards, while regular inspections ensured the property was always guest-ready.
We managed all guest inquiries with lightning-fast responses, improving booking conversion and guest satisfaction.
Within 12 months of working with us:
Occupancy jumped by 45%.
Nightly rates increased by 30% thanks to dynamic pricing.
Guest reviews improved from an average of 4.2 stars to 4.9 stars.
The property was featured on Airbnb’s “Guest Favorites” list.
Overall, monthly income more than doubled compared to self-management.
This case shows that with the right property management strategy, even an average-performing Airbnb can become a top earner. The biggest factors were:
✅ Professional presentation.
✅ Smart pricing based on Sudbury’s unique travel demand.
✅ Consistently excellent guest experiences.
