How to Manage an Airbnb Remotely: A Chester Rental Run From Australia

Peter Dawson on automating guest replies, cleaner updates, and review requests from the other side of the world.

Peter Dawson owns five properties in the UK, and the short-term rental near Chester is the most successful by a long way. The catch is that Peter lives in Australia, so guests usually arrive while Peter is asleep.

In this episode, Peter explains how AdvanceCM, Automata, and TokeetAI keep bookings, guest replies, cleaner notifications, and review requests running without daily input. Peter also shares the one habit that keeps the AI accurate, which started with a Booking.com guest asking about a £90 difference.

The result, in Peter’s words, is “almost no time on admin work whatsoever.” And for hosts still managing bookings by hand, Peter has one question: why give yourself a second job?

Key Takeaways:

✅ Automate the messages that happen every stay

✅ Let AI answer guests during the hours you’re offline

✅ Teach the AI whenever it misses a question

✅ Send review requests a few days after checkout

✅ Explore the backend early; it’s simpler than it looks
