FOR SILKHAUS OWNERS · UPDATED NOVEMBER 2026

The Silkhaus Alternative for Dubai Property Owners

Silkhaus has announced it will stop operating at the end of November 2026. If your apartment is managed by Silkhaus, you need a new operator before your agreement ends — ideally without losing December bookings, your listing's momentum or a month of income. Arami Vacation Homes is a Dubai-licensed holiday home operator managing 80+ apartments with 1,700+ guest reviews and a 4.78 average rating. We can take your unit over quickly and with as little disruption as possible.

What Silkhaus Closing Means for Your Apartment

When an operator closes, owners usually have the same few questions. Here is what to sort out now:

Two Ways to Work With Arami

Revenue Sharing

You keep the upside. We manage everything — pricing, listings, guests, cleaning, maintenance — and earn a share of the rental income, so we only do well when you do. Best for owners who want to benefit fully when Dubai demand returns.

Guaranteed Rent

We rent the apartment from you and pay a fixed rent, whatever the occupancy. No vacancy risk and no surprises, while your apartment is still professionally looked after. Available in selected buildings — ask us whether yours qualifies.

How Switching From Silkhaus Works

  1. Free valuation — tell us your building and unit type and we send an earnings estimate within 24 hours.
  2. Choose your model — revenue share or guaranteed rent, with a clear written agreement.
  3. Handover — we collect keys and access, check the apartment and take a fresh inventory.
  4. Bookings and registration — we move your unit's holiday home registration onto our licence and work to keep your upcoming guest bookings.
  5. Go live — your apartment is listed on Airbnb, Booking.com and our direct booking site, with dynamic pricing from day one.

Frequently asked questions

Is Silkhaus really closing?

Silkhaus announced that it will stop operating at the end of November 2026. Check the exact end date of your own management agreement with Silkhaus in writing.

When should I move my apartment to a new operator?

As soon as possible. Moving before your Silkhaus agreement ends gives the new operator time to transfer your holiday home registration and protect December bookings, the busiest part of the season.

What happens to bookings already made through Silkhaus?

That depends on what Silkhaus does with existing reservations. Send us your list of upcoming bookings and we will tell you which ones we can take over and how.

Do I need a new holiday home permit?

Your apartment has to be registered under a licensed holiday home operator. When you move to Arami, we handle moving the unit onto our licence.

Can Arami pay me a fixed rent instead of a revenue share?

Yes, in selected buildings we offer guaranteed rent: we rent the apartment from you and pay a fixed amount regardless of occupancy. Send us your building and unit type to check.

What does it cost to switch to Arami?

Contact us on WhatsApp with your apartment details and we'll send you our terms together with a free earnings estimate.

Is Arami connected to Silkhaus?

No. Arami Vacation Homes Rental Co. LLC is an independent Dubai holiday home operator. This page is for owners looking for a new operator after Silkhaus's closure.
