Staymarquis

What Staymarquis does

StayMarquis is a privately held luxury vacation rental and property management company founded in 2018 and headquartered in Melville, NY. The company operates a direct-to-consumer booking platform that connects affluent vacation renters with premium properties across five geographic markets: the Hamptons (Southampton, East Hampton, Montauk, Sag Harbor, Amagansett, Bridgehampton, Water Mill, Westhampton, Sagaponack), Shelter Island, North Fork, Hudson Valley, and Litchfield County/Berkshire County. Its core product is a proprietary website platform featuring curated property listings with a 100+ point inspection checklist used to vet every home before onboarding. The Marquis Collection, a premium sub-brand, offers fully managed properties with in-stay housekeeping, curated concierge partners, and round-the-clock support.

The company serves two primary customer segments: affluent vacation renters seeking vetted luxury accommodations for leisure, family getaways, corporate retreats, and major events; and property owners seeking to maximize rental income through professional management. Revenue is generated via management fees and commissions on short-term rental bookings, with pricing varying by property size, location, amenities, and seasonal demand—peak periods such as the U.S. Open at Shinnecock Hills command premium rates, with the highest-value single booking recorded at $150,000. Beyond core rental management, StayMarquis offers ancillary services including real estate purchasing assistance, renovation consultation, and StayProtected, a damage protection insurance program providing up to $25,000 in coverage per booking. Distribution is exclusively direct-to-consumer via the company's proprietary website, with no third-party marketplace dependency.

Leadership includes CEO Alex Goldstein and co-founder/managing partner Bryan Fedner. The company remains privately held with no disclosed funding rounds, patents, or AI/ML capabilities.
