About Exceptional Vacation Rentals
At Exceptional Vacation Rentals (EVR), we believe that hospitality should always be just that—exceptional. From the start, our mission has been simple: treat every guest and property owner with the same care, professionalism, and warmth that we’d expect ourselves. We take a hands-on, boutique approach to vacation rental management, ensuring that every stay is seamless and every home is given the attention it truly deserves.
Unlike large-scale management companies that prioritize quantity over quality, we keep our portfolio intentionally curated. This allows us to provide a high level of care, and it shows—our listings have maintained a 100% 5-star review streak since we took them on. Whether it’s greeting guests with a perfectly prepared space or keeping homeowners in the loop with transparent communication, we pride ourselves on delivering a service that feels personal, reliable, and exceptional in every way.
With years of experience in both short-term and mid-term rental markets, we use cutting-edge technology, data-driven pricing strategies, and dynamic marketing to maximize your property’s revenue. From securing direct bookings and optimizing pricing to adjusting for seasonal trends, we ensure that your investment remains profitable year-round. Our San Diego roots mean we have a deep understanding of the local market, particularly high-performing coastal properties west of the 5 freeway. At the same time, our experience extends beyond California, allowing us to successfully manage high-yield properties nationwide.
But beyond property management, what truly sets EVR apart is our commitment to transparency and lasting partnerships. We believe in clear, open communication, so our property owners always feel confident and informed. Whether you’re a seasoned real estate investor or just getting started, we’re here to help you navigate the world of short-term rentals with ease and success.
And while we take our work seriously, we also know how to have fun—after all, we’re in the business of creating unforgettable vacation experiences. As a San Diego-based company, we embrace the laid-back spirit of our city, with a playful nod to Ron Burgundy and the Anchorman crew woven into our brand. But don’t let the humor fool you—we’re dedicated to delivering top-tier service with integrity, expertise, and a personal touch. At EVR, we’re not just managing properties; we’re creating memorable stays, fostering strong relationships, and helping owners achieve exceptional results. Let’s bring out the best in your property together.

Who’s behind EVR
Hey, I’m Sarah—San Diego born and raised (which feels like a flex these days), mama to two wild little humans (3 & 6), and a total health nut. If you see me, I probably have a bag of my own food and a stash of supplements in tow.
Hospitality is in my DNA. I’ve been hosting on and off since 2013, and after years in sales, event management, and start-ups, I built Exceptional Vacation Rentals (EVR) to do things differently—prioritizing quality over quantity, relationships over transactions, and a 5-star experience for every guest and owner. My background in customer service, guest communication, and property management means I know what it takes to make a vacation rental truly stand out. From creating high-converting listings to strategic pricing and top-tier operations, I take a hands-on approach to maximizing revenue while maintaining the integrity of every home in my portfolio.
I pour my energy into the things that matter—my kids, my business, and creating exceptional experiences. Life is messy, but integrity, hard work, and a good sense of humor keep me grounded… hence the Anchorman-infused nods throughout EVR. Stay classy, San Diego.
