The short version

  • Each has a real cost: Properly properly solves only the turnover, so it is an additional per-property cost on top of a PMS that already claims to schedule cleaning, and the overlap is real.; ResortCleaning pricing is not published on the vendor site, so comparison against Turno or an in-house scheduling board requires a sales conversation and third-party figures vary widely.
  • They diverge on capability: Properly covers Photo-verified checklists, ResortCleaning covers PMS-driven job creation.
  • Prices and features above were last checked on 31 August 2026.

Where each one falls short

Documented limitations, not opinions. Every one is a constraint you would hit in normal use.

Properly

  • Properly solves only the turnover, so it is an additional per-property cost on top of a PMS that already claims to schedule cleaning, and the overlap is real.
  • The photo requirement adds time to every clean, and cleaners paid per turnover often resist it, which becomes a negotiation about rates rather than a software rollout.
  • Real-time inspection is billed at five dollars per inspection rather than included, so using it on every changeover materially changes the per-property cost.
  • The managed services tiers are priced an order of magnitude above the software, and operators sometimes discover the pitch is really about those rather than the app.
  • The cleaner marketplace has depth only in established North American destinations, and in thinner markets a missed turnover still means calling round yourself.

ResortCleaning

  • Pricing is not published on the vendor site, so comparison against Turno or an in-house scheduling board requires a sales conversation and third-party figures vary widely.
  • It is a housekeeping system only, so it depends entirely on the PMS integration; if your platform is not on the supported list the automated job creation that justifies the product does not work.
  • There is no cleaner marketplace, so an operator who does not already have a workforce gets scheduling software with nobody to schedule.
  • The vendor is small, which means less depth of documentation, a smaller partner ecosystem and more dependence on direct support than a large platform offers.
  • Mobile field use is functional rather than polished, and cleaning crews with low technical confidence typically need in-person training before inspections are completed properly.

Answered from the vendors’ own pages

Properly: What does Properly actually cost per property?

The platform starts at 12.99 US dollars per property per month, falling toward 5 dollars at higher volumes. Remote inspections cost 5 dollars each on top.

ResortCleaning: How is it different from Turno?

Turno matches hosts with cleaners from a marketplace. ResortCleaning is back-office software for a team you already employ or contract.

Properly: Does it replace my property management system?

No. It connects to one and covers turnovers only. Distribution, guest messaging and accounting stay elsewhere.

ResortCleaning: What does it cost?

Not published. Expect quoting by property count or job volume, and ask whether there is an account minimum for small portfolios.

Properly: Will cleaners actually use it?

They will if you require it, but the mandatory photo steps lengthen each clean and often need to be reflected in what you pay per turnover.

ResortCleaning: Does it replace my property management system?

No. It takes reservation data from the PMS and handles the operations layer only.

Properly: Does it help with damage claims?

Yes. Timestamped before and after photographs from the checklist are the main evidence operators use when claiming against a guest.

ResortCleaning: Does it handle contractor pay?

Yes. Completed jobs feed pay calculations for contractors as well as owner invoicing.
