What Our Clients Say

"Island Services has been a game-changer for me. We had some rowdy guests that caused the neighbor to call two nights in a row at 2AM. Island Services took the calls and handled the situation. Knowing they are on top of these issues for me gives an incredible peace of mind. Their team is professional, responsive, and always on top of things." - Susan L., Inlet Beach Property Owner

"I was so overwhelmed trying to get through the new ordinance since we live in Michigan. The different sites, forms and making sure we everything was right to pass inspection was a lot of stress. Island Services made the whole process simple. Their online portal is amazing, and I love that I can see everything that's happening at my property in real time." - David R., Short Term Rental Investor

"We had originaly planned to field the calls ourselves and pass them along to our housekeeper and/or neighbor who had offered. Horrible mistake. The one time we needed them the Sheriff was at our property. We tried to get the neighbor but they were out of town, and the housekeeper was too far away to drive down. Island Services was recommended and so far the experience has been great! Very Knowledgeable." - Allison W., Laguna Beach STR Owner
