Visit Website ↗Based in St. George, Ember Stays operates with a distinct focus on the luxury segment of the Southern Utah market, particularly within the Desert Color development. The firm maintains a strong presence on Google, where it holds a 4.8-star rating across 47 reviews. While technical data for Airbnb and Vrbo averages were not provided for this specific reporting period, external market evaluations have previously noted guest ratings for the operator as high as 4.96 to 4.98 stars.
A notable component of the Ember Stays model is its integration with the ThirdHome exchange program. This partnership allows property owners to trade unused time in their vacation homes for travel credits within a global network. This functional utility suggests a strategy aimed at owners who view their short-term rentals not only as revenue vehicles but as flexible assets for personal leisure.
Despite its market visibility, several contractual particulars remain opaque. Their fee structure is not publicly disclosed, and information regarding contract length and specific home quality metrics was missing from the available dataset. The operator does not currently hold a Vrbo Premier Host status according to the reported figures, though its local standing in St. George remains significant with a state rank of 4.
This operator is best for luxury property owners in the St. George area seeking a management model that includes global travel exchange benefits.

Google reviews written by property owners or management clients, identified conservatively by an explicit qualifying phrase in the reviewer's own words (for example "manage my home", "our rental", "as a homeowner"). Ambiguous reviews and guest stays are excluded, and we never paraphrase or infer. Guest reviews measure the stay; owner reviews measure the management relationship. They are scored separately.
No owner-identified reviews found across all 47 Google reviews.The Owner Reviews component scores at the market average across companies with sufficient owner-review data, rather than at zero, because absence of an owner-authored review among sampled Google reviews is not evidence of a poor management relationship.
