Nestled along Ireland’s rugged west coast, County Clare captivates holiday‑makers with its dramatic cliffs, verdant landscapes and rich cultural heritage. Whether you own a cosy cottage near the Cliffs of Moher or a coastal retreat on the Wild Atlantic Way, ensuring your property remains in pristine condition all year round can be a challenge, especially from afar. With over 1.5 million visitors to County Clare each year, proactive management is essential to protect your investment and maximise returns. That’s where Frank Salt Property Management steps in, offering a comprehensive holiday home care service tailored to County Clare’s unique environment and tourism cycles.


Your Irish Holiday Home Is Here With Us.


The value of local expertise


A local property management company brings invaluable on‑the‑ground knowledge. From understanding Clare’s microclimates to navigating local contractors and suppliers, a trusted manager can anticipate seasonal maintenance needs - such as winterisation to protect against Atlantic storms or summer garden and outdoor repairs to keep your home welcoming for guests. Frank Salt Property Management’s head office in Kilnaboy, Ennis, ensures that every property benefits from swift response times and a network of carefully vetted tradespeople.

Benefits of appointing a local property management company


1.      Key‑holding and security

A secure key‑holding service removes the stress of coordinating arrivals and departures. Homeowners can rest assured that guests gain access smoothly, while any emergency entry requirements are handled professionally.


2.      Regular inspections and maintenance

Monthly property inspections catch small issues before they become costly repairs. From checks on heating systems and safety tests (gas and electricity) to monitoring inventory and seasonal adjustments, proactive oversight keeps your home guest‑ready at all times.


3.      Reactive and routine maintenance

Whether it’s a dripping tap or a malfunctioning boiler, having a dedicated team on call means swift remedial action. Frank Salt Property Management maintains a carefully vetted pool of contractors, ensuring reliable workmanship and transparent costings.


4.      Emergency assistance

Unexpected emergencies - storm damage or sudden plumbing failures - require immediate intervention. With 24/7 emergency support, property owners avoid lengthy delays and mitigate potential losses or guest inconvenience.


5.      Mail collection and financial oversight

Handling incoming mail, settling service‑charge invoices and assistance with tax or insurance paperwork may seem minor but can become overwhelming. Property managers streamline these tasks, providing owners with clear financial reporting and peace of mind.


6.      Marketing and guest liaison

A strong online listing, professional photography and prompt guest communication are key to maximising occupancy and rental rates. Frank Salt Property Management supports both local and overseas owners by promoting properties on leading holiday‑rental platforms and handling enquiries from initial booking through to departure.


7.      Cleaning coordination and linen services

First impressions matter. Co‑ordinating reliable cleaning teams and stocking fresh linens keeps your property in top condition, encourages repeat bookings and generates positive reviews.


8.      Legal compliance and regulatory support

From fire safety regulations to short‑term letting licences, navigating Ireland’s evolving holiday‑rental legislation can be complex. A professional manager ensures your property meets all local requirements, avoiding fines and ensuring guest safety.


9.      Data‑driven performance insights

Through regular reporting on occupancy rates, seasonal trends and revenue forecasts, property owners gain valuable insights. This data empowers strategic decisions - whether adjusting nightly rates or investing in targeted upgrades - to boost long‑term profitability.
