We are particularly interested in Acquisition Partners with relationships across the luxury property, villa, hospitality and professional accommodation sectors.

Build With Your Network - and Ours

Develop opportunities through your own relationships and prospecting while gaining performance-based access to MadeStays' property acquisition infrastructure.

We are particularly interested in Partners who already have credible access to villa owners, luxury agents, developers, professional property managers and established operators.

This is not about submitting property portal links. We want Acquisition Partners who can create genuine conversations with owners and decision-makers.

Opportunity access depends on availability, territory, performance, lead quality and compliance with the Acquisition Partner Agreement. A specific number of leads or successful outcomes is not guaranteed.

What You Will Be Introducing

MadeStays helps owners and operators improve how qualifying homes are positioned, presented, distributed and booked.

For Marbella and the surrounding approved Costa del Sol locations, our current acquisition focus is primarily on Marketing & Bookings relationships where established local owners or operators retain responsibility for physical fulfilment.

MadeStays does not currently advertise Fully Managed as a generally available service within this territory. Any interest in additional service models will be recorded and reviewed internally, and availability must be expressly confirmed by MadeStays.

Every property assessed. Only qualifying homes published.

Commission

Commission is determined by the service model, exclusivity and property category:

  • £500 for an approved Marketing & Booking operator.
  • £1,000 for an exceptional Marketing & Booking operator, subject to written approval.
  • £1,000 for an approved Fully Managed property.
  • £2,000 for an exceptional Fully Managed property, subject to written approval.
  • Bespoke written commission for Fully Managed multi-property portfolios.

MadeStays determines the final service model, property classification and applicable commission. Commission is earned and paid according to the current Acquisition Partner Agreement.

Who We Are Looking For

You must have:

  • At least one year of sales experience.
  • Strong local property, hospitality, luxury or owner-network relationships.
  • Confidence approaching property owners and business decision-makers.
  • Strong written and verbal communication.
  • The ability to communicate credibly with international owners and local operators.
  • Professional working English.
  • Good organisation and consistent follow-up habits.
  • The ability to work independently and manage a sales pipeline.

Spanish capability is strongly preferred.

Experience in luxury property, estate agency, villa rentals, property management, hospitality, development, concierge, business development or another commission-led environment is particularly relevant.

Existing relationships with property owners, luxury agents, developers, villa operators or professional property managers are highly valuable.

Eligible applicants will receive further information about the Acquisition Partner programme, onboarding requirements and instructions for getting started.

Spanish owner-facing communications and campaign materials must use MadeStays-approved copy reviewed by a fluent Spanish speaker.
