The Ryder Cup 2027 Accommodation Opportunity

Ryder Cup 2027 takes place at Adare Manor from 13 to 19 September 2027, with the three match days falling on 17, 18 and 19 September. The event is expected to bring a significant number of international and domestic visitors to County Limerick and the surrounding region, many of whom will be looking for private accommodation that can house a group comfortably — something that separate hotel rooms simply cannot replicate.

Understanding How Golf Event Stays Listing Fees Work

Golf Event Stays is an event-specific property-listing marketplace. It is not a letting agency, property-management company or hotel booking platform. The listing fees described here are one-time payments that give your property visibility on the platform for the Ryder Cup 2027 event period. There are no monthly charges under either option.

The fee structure is designed so that ordinary homeowners, people who do not normally run a rental business can participate in the accommodation market around a major golf event without committing to ongoing costs or long-term contracts.

Option 1: The Self-Managed Listing (€299 Once-Off)

The Self-Managed listing option costs €299 as a one-time payment. This is the default option for homeowners who are comfortable managing their own enquiries and guest arrangements.

What the self-managed listing includes

  • A dedicated property listing page on Golf Event Stays, visible to golf travellers searching for Ryder Cup 2027 accommodation
  • Space for up to 12 property photographs
  • A full property description covering bedrooms, bathrooms, guest capacity, parking, facilities and approximate travel time to Adare Manor
  • An enquiry function so that interested guests can contact you directly
  • Exposure to an audience of golf-event travellers — including international visitors from the USA, UK and Continental Europe — who are actively looking for private accommodation

What you manage yourself

Under the self-managed model, you remain responsible for responding to enquiries, assessing prospective guests, agreeing rental terms, collecting payment, managing a security deposit where applicable, preparing the property, and handling check-in and checkout. If you are organised and comfortable communicating directly with guests, this is a very manageable process. Most of the practical steps involved are simply good preparation: cleaning thoroughly, securing personal belongings, confirming payment terms in writing and providing clear check-in instructions.

When the self-managed option suits you

  • You are comfortable replying to enquiries and making your own judgement about guests
  • You have time to prepare the listing, respond promptly and coordinate the stay
  • You want to retain full control of pricing, availability and guest communication
  • You want to keep costs straightforward — a single known fee with no commission on your rental income

Because there is no commission under the self-managed model, the full rental amount you agree with your guests is yours to keep.

Option 2: The Fully Managed Service (€595 Upfront, Refunded on a Successful Rental)

The Fully Managed service has a €595 upfront listing fee, which is refunded when Golf Event Stays successfully secures a rental, plus a 15% success commission on the confirmed accommodation rental value. It suits homeowners who would prefer additional support with enquiries and the booking process rather than handling everything themselves.

The 15% applies only to the accommodation rental value. Optional independent services such as cleaning, laundry or transport are arranged separately, priced separately and paid directly to the provider.

Which Option Costs Less Overall?

The self-managed listing has a lower upfront fee and no commission, so the full rental income goes to you. The Fully Managed service costs more when your property rents, in exchange for support through the booking process.

As a rough illustration: if your property rents for €24,000 during Ryder Cup week, the self-managed option costs €299 in listing fees, while the Fully Managed service costs 15% of €24,000 (€3,600), with the €595 listing fee refunded once the rental is secured.

What Both Options Have in Common

Regardless of which option you choose, several things remain consistent:

  • Golf Event Stays does not control your pricing, you set your own rental amount
  • You decide whether a particular booking is suitable for your home
  • Accommodation booked through Golf Event Stays does not include event tickets; guests arrange their own tickets through official Ryder Cup channels
  • Property maps on the platform may display approximate locations to protect your privacy; the confirmed address is only shared after booking
  • Golf Event Stays is an independent property-listing marketplace and is not affiliated with Ryder Cup Europe, the PGA of America, Adare Manor or the event organisers

Other Practical Costs to Be Aware Of

The listing fee is your cost for platform exposure. There are other practical costs to factor in separately when planning your rental:

  • Cleaning: Whether you clean the property yourself or use a local cleaner, there will be a cost associated with preparing the home before guests arrive and restoring it after checkout.
  • Linen and towels: If you are supplying bed linen and towels, laundering them after the stay is a direct cost.
  • Optional coordination services: If you or your guests would like help arranging airport transfers, grocery stocking, additional cleaning support or similar services, Golf Event Stays may be able to help coordinate these through independent local providers. These are optional, separately priced, paid directly to the provider, and never included in or bundled with the listing fee.
  • Insurance: Contact your insurer before the stay to confirm whether your existing home insurance policy covers a short-term paying-guest arrangement, or whether a temporary adjustment is needed.
  • Tax: Rental income may need to be declared. Keep a clear record of what you receive and retain receipts for direct costs. If you are unsure of your obligations, a brief conversation with an accountant will give you clarity.

Listing Early: Why It Matters

With Ryder Cup 2027 running in September, international visitors particularly those travelling from the USA and UK often plan accommodation well in advance. A property listed early has more time to be discovered, more time to receive enquiries from suitable groups, and a greater opportunity for you to compare options and choose the guests that are right for your home.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the listing fee to advertise my property for Ryder Cup 2027 on Golf Event Stays?

The self-managed listing is €299 as a one-time fee.

Golf Event Stays offers two options for homeowners listing a property for Ryder Cup 2027 at Adare Manor. The Self-Managed listing costs €299 as a single, once-off payment with no monthly charges and no commission on your rental income. The Fully Managed service has a €595 upfront listing fee that is refunded when Golf Event Stays successfully secures a rental, plus a 15% success commission on the confirmed accommodation rental value. The 15% applies only to the accommodation amount it does not apply to any optional independent services such as cleaning, airport transfers or grocery coordination, which are always separately priced and optional.

Is there a commission on my rental income under the self-managed listing?

No. Under the Self-Managed listing, there is no commission on your rental income only the one-time €299 listing fee.

The self-managed listing at €299 is a one-time platform access fee. Golf Event Stays does not charge commission on the rental income you agree with your guests under this model. Whatever price you set and collect from your guests is yours to keep.

Can I set my own rental price regardless of which listing option I choose?

Yes. You set your own rental price under both options. Golf Event Stays does not control your pricing.

Golf Event Stays is a property-listing marketplace, not a letting agency. You decide what to charge for your property, and you retain control over pricing, availability and guest selection under both the self-managed and managed listing options. The platform provides exposure to relevant golf travellers and an enquiry function — you remain in charge of the commercial terms you agree with your guests. The Golf Event Stays rental income calculator can help you form a view on what your property might realistically achieve during Ryder Cup week.

Are there any other costs beyond the listing fee?

The listing fee covers your platform exposure. Cleaning, insurance, linen and any optional local services are separate costs you manage independently.

Any costs associated with preparing and managing the property are separate. These may include cleaning (before and after the stay), laundering linen and towels, and any optional coordination services such as airport transfers or grocery stocking, which are independently supplied, separately priced and paid directly to the provider. You should also contact your home insurer before the stay to confirm your cover for short-term paying guests, and keep a record of rental income received in case it needs to be declared a local accountant can advise if you are unsure.

Which listing option is better for a first-time homeowner rental?

Both are suitable for first-time homeowners.

First-time homeowners can use either option successfully. The self-managed listing is straightforward for most homeowners who are prepared to reply to enquiries, confirm a written agreement with their guest and manage check-in and checkout directly. The process involves mostly ordinary preparation — cleaning, organising the property, confirming payment terms and providing clear instructions. The Fully Managed service is worth considering if you would prefer support with enquiries and the booking process: it costs €595 upfront, refunded when a rental is successfully secured, plus 15% of the confirmed rental value. Weigh the additional cost against the reassurance it provides, particularly if you have a higher-value property or limited time available around the event.

Does the listing fee include Ryder Cup event tickets?

No. Accommodation listed through Golf Event Stays does not include event tickets. Guests must arrange tickets separately through official Ryder Cup channels.

The Golf Event Stays listing fee covers property exposure on the platform only. It does not include, and must not be presented as including, Ryder Cup 2027 event tickets or any official hospitality package. Golf Event Stays is an independent property-listing marketplace and is not affiliated with Ryder Cup Europe, the PGA of America or the event organisers. Guests are responsible for sourcing their own tickets through authorised Ryder Cup ticket channels. Accommodation availability and ticket availability are entirely separate.

Golf Event Stays pricing is reviewed from time to time. For the current Self-Managed listing fee for each event and the current Fully Managed terms, see the Golf Event Stays pricing page or list your property.
