Hostaway is participating as a platinum sponsor at Short Stay Athens Conference 2026 (19–20 February, DAIS | Athens), strengthening the thematic focus on operational maturity in short-term rentals—from organizing processes to using data for profitability.
Who Hostaway is
Hostaway is an all-in-one vacation rental software platform that combines property management tools, channel management, messaging, and growth functions, with connections to major channels such as Airbnb, Vrbo, and Booking.com. At the same time, it offers Marketplace integrations with 100+ apps/partners, allowing professionals to “build” their own tech stack based on their needs.
Hostaway: Operational excellence in short-term rentals: What actually makes the difference
The panel focuses on what determines the operational success of a property management business today “beyond tools and trends”: how the right organization of operations, workflow automation, and the use of data translate into measurable results: Fewer mistakes, a better guest experience, and greater profitability.
Speaker: Chris Henly (Director of Sales, EMEA)
Joining the discussion will be Chris Henly, Director of Sales, EMEA at Hostaway. With more than 15 years of sales experience and a data-led approach to business development, he has a strong understanding of the international short-term rental market. He is based in Barcelona and operates across the broader EMEA region.
Why it matters for property managers
In a market that is maturing quickly, the “difference” is not made only in occupancy or pricing. It’s made in how the business runs every day: How clear the workflows are, how automated the flows are, and how data is used to reduce failures and increase consistency of the experience, especially as the portfolio grows.
Hostaway’s presence at Short Stay Athens Conference brings to the forefront the discussion every professional cares about: what truly “moves the needle” in performance when the goal is scaling with control and predictability. The operational excellence panel is a strong opportunity for practical takeaways and an exchange of experience from the European market.
