Why choose Wilkuma to manage your vacation rental?

Welcome to Wilkuma

When I began creating my vacation rental management company, I wanted a name that embodied warmth, hospitality, and a deep sense of welcome. This is how Wilkuma came into being. "Wilkuma" is derived from Old English, meaning "a person whose coming is welcome." It combines "wil" (desire, pleasure) and "cuman" (come), perfectly encapsulating our mission: to make every guest feel relaxed and genuinely welcomed. On top of this, our goal is to provide guidance and management that helps our client's properties outperform the market by 15-25% annually. We strive to make every property a happy place for our guests to enjoy and create lasting memories.

The Essence of Wilkuma

At Wilkuma, we believe in the power of a heartfelt welcome. From the moment you find vacation rentals and book your stay to the time you check out, our goal is to provide an experience that is seamless, comfortable, and memorable. We want guests to feel that their arrival is anticipated and their stay is cherished. This is important not only for the guest experience but also for property performance. With the saturation of vacation rentals, your property needs to stick out as much as possible, and top-rated properties consistently outperform properties with lower ratings. We maintain over 4.93 ratings across thousands of reviews on major OTA platforms (Airbnb & VRBO).

Our Mission on the North Shore: Vacation Rentals

The North Shore of Massachusetts is a charming and thriving vacation rental market featuring a variety of appealing destinations. The coastal towns of Gloucester, Rockport, and Manchester offer a unique blend of scenic beauty, excellent restaurants, and recreational activities. We chose to open Wilkuma on the North Shore, explicitly focusing on vacation rental houses in Gloucester, Rockport, and Manchester by the sea. We are proud to manage some of the finest vacation rentals in this area.

Gloucester: Known for its maritime heritage, Gloucester offers stunning ocean views, classic New England-style fresh seafood, and a vibrant arts scene. Our properties here are carefully selected to provide guests with easy access to the best of what Gloucester offers, whether a whale-watching adventure or a perfect beach day.

Rockport: This quaint, artistic town is a haven for those looking to escape the hustle and bustle. Our Rockport rentals are designed to immerse guests in the town’s unique charm with cozy accommodations that feel like a home away from home. Enjoy a stroll through Bearskin Neck or explore the many galleries and shops.

Manchester: Often referred to as Manchester-by-the-Sea, this beautiful town is perfect for a weekend getaway. Our properties in Manchester offer a tranquil retreat with all the modern amenities you need. Spend your days exploring Singing Beach or indulging in the local culinary delights.
