Elevating Boutique Hospitality
Founder-led consulting, education, and advisory services for luxury STR operators, boutique hospitality brands, and destination-focused stay experiences.
Founded by an Operator,
Not a Guru
Hi, I'm Nicole.
For nearly a decade, I've built and led a boutique luxury vacation rental company on Anna Maria Island, growing from a single property to a curated portfolio of luxury homes while navigating the realities of hospitality, owner relations, team leadership, guest experience, market shifts, hurricanes, and sustainable growth.
Through that experience, I've learned that exceptional hospitality isn't created through shortcuts, hacks, or algorithms alone. It's built through systems, standards, relationships, and a deep understanding of both guests and place.
Reserved Hospitality was created to share those lessons with hospitality professionals, property managers, resort operators, boutique stay brands, self-managing vacation rental owners, and investors exploring short-term rental opportunities.
Whether you're launching a new hospitality venture, scaling an existing operation, refining your guest experience, seeking guidance as a self-managing owner, or evaluating a vacation rental investment property in collaboration with a trusted real estate professional, my goal is simple:
Help you build a hospitality brand or investment strategy that is profitable, sustainable, and memorable.

Testimonials
This experience was all brand new for us, as this was a new adventure in the vacation rental business. Nicole made what could have been a very intimidating process for us into something very easy and simplified. She is a hard worker and basically takes care of everything for us... Another attribute she has is her attention to details. This is especially important on all of the documents she provides for taxes, bookings, and others that are needed.
D. Schaefer, FL - Vacation Rental Owner
Nikki does accounting and licensing, but more importantly, she is a top tier marketer. She knows how social media works and has an active presence online. She continually monitors the pulse of the market for premium pricing, bookings, and solid occupancy rates. They have a terrific team around them. From the office, to their immaculate cleaning crew, to their hand picked local contractors if needed. Most have been working on the island for years. They are responsible and do an outstanding job. What do the guests think? I like 5 Star reviews and they get them. It is just about all they ever get! If you are just getting set-up, contact them early as they have a lot of ideas to share about what works and what doesn’t. You will be happy!
D. Panella, GA - Vacation Rental Owner
Over the past several years, [Nicole has] done an outstanding job of managing two of our vacation rental properties on AMI. In one year alone, they more than doubled the revenue yr/yr achieved by the previous property management company on one of the properties.
