Meet Krystina:
Founder & Chief Experience Maker.
The Idea
My Airbnb journey was fairly typical. I wanted to spend more time with family overseas and had recently designed and renovated the perfect Airbnb space. I enlisted the help of several of the top tier property management companies to look after our place whilst I was overseas, but found they were not giving guests the experience which we wanted them to have.
Experience Making
I left my corporate career in start- ups and retrained in Interior Design. I started working alongside one of APAC's largest Proptech companies -Hometime. Over a 4 year period I worked as a strategic partner building one of their most successful Airbnb portfolios. This involved concept and interior design, undertaking fit outs, optimising low performing properties as well as managing the end to end guest experience.
Our Results
The Cleary & Co. property portfolio is currently ranked as one of AU's top performing. All of our client properties are in the top 10% of Airbnb listings worldwide. We are guest experience gurus, always aiming for the stars. We combine this with a strategic commercial outlook to optimise your property performance.
The Team
It's a family affair here at Cleary & Co. literally. I am a creative with big ideas and my other half Neil is the operational and practical one. He keeps me on the straight and narrow. There's also our trusty assistant Baxter, a 16 year old JRT X Whippet, known as B Man to his friends.
Our team comprises of local staff who actually care. They are dedicated to our properties and provide a 5 Star service to our guests. We are unique as we are local experts providing a personalised service to our owners, we are on hand and nearby always ready to help out.
Where it started...
My Airbnb journey started after I retrained in interior design and undertook a large scale renovation and fit out on this old student house in the inner West.
It's been featured in ad campaigns, rented for wedding stays and hosted some fabulous guests.
Over 20,000 Happy Guests.

We are thinkers.
We’re shamelessly driven by our imagination, thinking through every guest touchpoint. We collect our guest feedback (there's a lot of it) and we use these insights to strive for excellence. When things go wrong, which inevitably they do, we know how to handle it. After all, we've heard it all before ;)
We like to do good.
In order to give the best experience, you have to share! We profile the very best local stuff, from cool artists, hip bars, to a cup of coffee. We support our artisan network here in Sydney and give back to small business to ensure we are actively contributing to the local ecosystem.
