Julie & Jason Batey own and operate Retreats Tasmania for our owners and guests. We strive to make your Short Stay rental experience simple and completely transparent for both you as the owner and for our valued guests.
We are completely open and honest about our fees from the start. You'll never be out of pocket as we add all of the associated booking costs, fees and commissions into the nightly rate. It is as simple as that! We don't get paid until you do.
Julie worked as Finance Manager/2IC for a Publishing Company for 16 years and also has extensive experience in HR/Office Management. She also owns and operates a Virtual Bookkeeping company.
Jason has extensive experience in Tourism & Hospitality operations and spent 10 years as an Operations Manager for a Publishing Company, specialising in Advertising, Sales and Marketing. Jason has also had various roles involving his passion for photography and he now owns and operates a photography business, Retreats Photography.
They also own and operate Retreats Victoria and Australian Retreats.

We will then arrange a time to meet with you and do a walk through the property. Once that has been done and both sides are happy we have an Agreement to be signed which gives us authority to manage your property. We do not have any lock in contracts. All we ask is that you give us a minimum of four weeks written notice if you wish to terminate your Agreement for any reason, and honour any bookings already in the system at the time, or the cost of their relocation, for the following three months. We believe our service speaks for itself as we have had owners with us for a number of years who are not under contract to do so. They stay because of the service we provide.
Absolutely. We pay owners at the end of every month. You will always be paid by the 7th of the month for the prior month’s bookings. We provide a detailed statement of income and expenses.
Once we have all of the information we require from you to list your property, and the photography has been done, we can generally have your property live and available for bookings within 2-3 business days.
