Company Overview

Rely advances beyond the traditional responsibilities. It presents a range of services to drive the strategic development, growth and profitability of hotel assets. Delivering an unrivalled guest experience is essential to cultivating customer loyalty but Rely is positioned to provide more than just a raise in RevPAR. We embody a trifecta of disciplines - investment, development and management - and we are backed by a proven track record of success. Characterized by this continuum of services, we embrace an owner's mindset from project inception to completion to become more than just their advisors, but keen strategists maintaining the health and wealth of real estate assets. The experience of seeing the final product open its doors - after the owner and Rely have shared the experience from inception - is extremely gratifying.

When every stage of launching a hotel is handled by teams from the same company from the investment decision to acquire an existing asset or break ground, to the conceptualization and growth of the property, to handling all the important particulars and then managing it to the highest levels of customer satisfaction there is an undeniable seamlessness to the process. This is the role of the Rely management partner, where a single company crafts a customized program of investment, development and management strategies to create an operationally sound and fiscally strong property.

FEASIBILITY STUDIES

Aim of the feasibility study is to obtain a neutral, professional and qualified opinion and a thorough analysis of the current project plans. The study examines site and market circumstances, market research, all relevant economic issues as well as financial estimations for the proposed hotel project. In completing such a study, we prepare an Operating Budget, a Marketing and Business plan, as well as the Action Plan of the Preopening period.

TECHNICAL SERVICES

We act as the expert consultant in supporting all the professionals engaged to design a project, in order to obtain the maximum functionality in terms of operation of the final product. We will assist the preopening team to obtain full compliance of the project as to all relevant requirements by the national authorities, Health and Safety standards set by the Tour Operators and/or by the governing bodies.

PRE/RE OPENING HOTEL SERVICES

Our extensive experience on all areas of Hotel development can provide tailor made services to projects, carefully designed to meet the owners' visions. The pre/re-opening phase of a hotel is both a big challenge and a great opportunity. We ensure that the promotion of the hotel begins as soon as construction/renovation has begun and that there is a constant flow of images and information through the various stages of construction to keep people updated and draw their attention on the progress using specific and appropriate media outlets.

HOTEL MANAGEMENT SERVICES

Our management services ensure the most efficient operation of the Hotels under our management, reducing costs and maximizing income through a dynamic management strategy. Like any business, a hotel is a highly complex operation. It functions optimally when each of those operations runs in harmony with the others. This is best accomplished when the organization is maintained by those with experience as well as integrity. Rely manages the numerous parts of each property from finding the right team members to targeting the right guests. Our hands-on approach guarantees an open and accessible relationship with our clients. We are targeting in adding a variety of privately owned as well as Branded Hotels in Cyprus to our portfolio and look forward to broadening our spectrum and welcoming hotels to our group.

HOTEL REVENUE MANAGEMENT SERVICES

Our revenue management services drive profitability for our properties by supporting sales tactics, advising on pricing and inventory strategies and exploring new revenue opportunities. Today, revenue management is no longer just about data-analysis requires equal finesse in communicating with the entire Hotel team to ensure everyone is making informed decisions on ways to bring in the right mix of business. Integrating brand and market knowledge allows for flexible revenue management decisions that are very market specific. By continually monitoring the mix of sales for each project, we maximize revenues on a consistent basis working towards the goal of profitable returns. Our team's experience has proven to be a strong strategic and tactical tool that has enabled us to implement our strategies rapidly, thus giving the Hotels under our management a huge competitive advantage.

INTERNATIONAL BRAND FRANCHISE

Rely Management will be proposing several internationally established and recognised hotel Companies (Brands), for granting the franchise of its brand through an International License Agreement to the propose Hotel.

ASSET MANAGEMENT

Given the volatility in the travel market many hotel owners would no longer take the risk of entering a relationship with a hotel operator without the ongoing support of a hotel asset manager or asset management company. Employed by the asset owner, the role is to ensure that the property reaches its full potential so that it can create increased returns in the long term or to be sold at the peak of its real estate value.
