Deserve A Break - About Us & Background

What Made Me Develop Deserve A Break
Deserve A Break was developed because of my involvement in the Bed and Breakfast Industry. After owning my own
Bed and Breakfast and selling it, I wanted to stay involved in the Industry. I set up Deserve A Break which
is a relieving service to Lifestyle Accommodation Owners. It is an Australian and New Zealand Hospitality
service for Bed and Breakfasts, Guest Houses, Boutique Hotels, Self Contained Cottages and Cabins, Farmstays
and Homestays, Management Rights, Motels, Backpackers, Caravan Parks and other lifestyle properties.
Along with other owners, I found it difficult to find a relieving manager to manage my Bed and Breakfast when
I needed to go to a special family event, to attend a special function or business seminar, to travel, have a
holiday or a relaxing break. I was running a professional business and I did not want to close it, while I
had that break.
The question I was asking myself was "where can I find a relieving manager that I can trust and is suitable
to cope with all the day to day matters of managing my B&B while away?" Thus I set up Deserve A Break for
this reason.
A relief manager would provide the answer, instead of closing I have the answer for owners of Lifestyle
Accommodation properties. They have the option to stay open, be comfortable that their business is being
operated correctly and they can relax and enjoy there well deserved break.
Deserve A Break allows this well deserved break to happen and looks forward to helping the owner of
Bed and Breakfasts make it happen.
