Four years in the making—this episode is a milestone for me.

In this special episode of The Accommodation Show, I sit down with Amiad Soto, co-founder of Guesty, the world’s leading property management software. But this isn’t just about Guesty’s success. I wanted to get personal: What drives Amiad? How does he make decisions as a leader? And what lessons has he learned that can help you grow your business?

Whether you’re running a B&B or scaling a global operation, this episode is packed with actionable insights on solving customer pain points, leveraging AI, and becoming a better leader. Take a listen—it’s more than an interview, it’s a toolkit for success in accommodation.
