Fractional COO services for Small Hotels, Boutique Inns, and Charming Chaos
At Inndeate we specialize in turning visions into vibrant, profitable hospitality experiences. With over 20 years of industry expertise, we offer strategic, personalized consulting for:
Bed & Breakfasts
Boutique Inns & Lodges
Whether you're launching from scratch or scaling an existing operation, we’re your partner from concept to completion—and beyond.
Why Works
Fractional = Flexible: No long-term contracts, just right-fit support.
Small property specialists: We know boutique, independent, and off-the-beaten-path.
Owner-minded: We’ve been in your shoes—and know how to make the numbers (and people) work.
Why Hire Us?
Because running a charming inn shouldn’t feel like running a three-ring circus.
You opened your doors to welcome guests, not to drown in spreadsheets, staff schedules, and supplier snafus. That’s where we come in.
As your fractional COO, we help bring calm to the chaos—without stripping away the personality and magic that makes your property unique. Whether you're a seasoned innkeeper juggling too many hats or a new owner navigating the wild world of operations, we step in with practical strategies, clear systems, and a knack for making things run like a dream.
What You Get:
✔️ A partner in the back office – no full-time salary required
✔️ An eye for inefficiencies – and a plan to fix them
✔️ A hospitality nerd – who speaks guest experience and gross margin
✔️ A fixer, not just a planner – we don't just make SOPs; we roll up sleeves and help implement
