The published facts, in plain English
5 Star STR is a full-service operator based in Las Vegas, NV, covering Las Vegas, Henderson. The number it puts in writing is Not published (flat, perf clause). Published portfolio size: Undisclosed. In scale, we file it as local.
Data-desk note: Licensed Vegas group-estate specialist; no-5-star, no-commission clause.
Who it’s for
This company is suited for property owners with investments strictly within their identified markets of Las Vegas and Henderson. Given their 'local' size designation, it's most appropriate for owners who value a concentrated, geographically specific management approach.
Our take
5 Star STR operates as a full-service manager, though specific details regarding their management fee structure are not published. Their presence is limited to the Las Vegas and Henderson markets, and the number of listings they manage is undisclosed. A notable point is their connection to a licensed Vegas group-estate specialist, and they do not appear to have a commission-based fee structure or use the term '5-star'.
How it compares to One Fine BnB
On the published figures alone, 5 Star STR shows Not published (flat, perf clause) and One Fine BnB shows 20% for hands-off full service, or 10% if you keep your own local crew, plus a one-time onboarding retainer. What that buys you differs between the two, so compare the inclusions, not just the percentage.
Verdict
For Indiana owners seeking a manager for properties outside of Nevada, 5 Star STR is not a viable option due to its limited market scope. For those with properties in their specific service area, consider them, though fee transparency is limited compared to owner-first alternatives like One Fine BnB.

What we would ask 5 Star STR
- “What does the published Not published (flat, perf clause) exclude?” Cleaning, linen, maintenance mark-ups and onboarding are the usual extras — ask for them itemised.
- Notice period and exit. Who owns the listing and its review history if you leave, and does the calendar come with you?
- Who is on the ground. Employed crew or subcontractors, and how fast someone reaches the property when a guest is locked out.
