Rise and Shine Hawaii Highlights

May 14, 2025 | Property Managers Blog

The Rise and Shine: The Vacation Breakfast Series touched down in paradise—Kauai and Maui—and the StreamTeam was proud to be at the heart of the conversation. With a packed room of property managers eager to learn smarter strategies for growth, we shared tools, trends, and tactics designed to help them move beyond the booking and drive long-term performance.

Catch up on the Hawaiian market insights we shared!

From Search to Stay: Streamline’s Ecosystem in Action

The vacation rental booking journey doesn’t start with a reservation, and it doesn’t end when guests check out. That’s why we walked attendees through the complete booking lifecycle, spotlighting how a Streamline-powered ecosystem delivers at every touchpoint:

  • Property Management Software that removes roadblocks
  • Integrated websites and marketing that convert
  • Ancillary services that boost revenue without extra work

Vacation rental operators came away with clear takeaways on how to drive higher efficiency, stronger margins, and better guest experiences.

Hawaii Market Pulse: What the Data Tells Us

Streamline’s market experts shared the latest performance insights for Kauai and beyond:

  • Kauai occupancy is up nearly 10% in 2025 compared to 2024
  • ADR is holding strong, with some months already tracking higher than last year
  • Bookings are on the rise, in part due to shifts following the Maui wildfires

Pro tip: With demand trending up, this is a prime opportunity to revisit your revenue management strategy. Pay close attention to ADR trends and booking pace—especially as stay dates approach.

We also highlighted shifting trends in international traveler behavior, particularly among Canadian guests. Bookings and stays from Canada have dipped year-over-year since late 2024, possibly tied to election cycles and broader economic signals. The message? Know your guest mix—and adjust accordingly.

Profit Beyond the Booking: The Power of Ancillary Revenue

As we reminded attendees: revenue doesn’t end with rent.

In 2024, fees and services made up nearly 18% of property manager revenue—and that number is growing. With Streamline, you can easily unlock this profit center through smart upsells, insurance offerings, and more.

What’s Next: Advocacy and Regulation

Regulations are evolving—and the Streamline community is paying attention. We closed the session with a candid conversation around legislative concerns and the importance of proactive advocacy. It’s never been more important for operators to stay informed and united.

One Community, One Platform

We built Streamline to power the future of vacation rental management—and that future was on full display in Hawaii.

Mahalo to everyone who joined us in Kauai and Maui! Your engagement, questions, and collaboration made this stop a powerful one.
