About Us
de Mile & Gard's Art
de Mile & Gard was founded on a simple conviction: there is an art to caring for places — and a savoir-servir for those who inhabit them.
Our work brings together discretion, precision, and presence — blending human care with modern efficiency to offer homeowners peace of mind and travelers a sense of belonging.
As part of a wider hospitality network that serves over 1 000 owners across Europe, we operate independently under our own exacting standards of excellence, guided by a single principle: quiet mastery in every detail.
Managing a home — whether lived in or shared — is a matter of trust.
At de Mile & Gard, we cultivate an understated form of hospitality, rooted in respect for the property, the people, and the passing of time.
Each gesture is deliberate, every decision measured — not to impress, but to preserve what makes a place truly feel like home.
This is our philosophy: an invisible discipline that transforms service into an art.

The People Behind the Promise
Behind de Mile & Gard stands a dedicated circle of professionals who embody our philosophy of quiet excellence. Each contributes to a seamless experience where every home — and every stay — receives thoughtful, human care.
The Managing Team
Our management structure combines central coordination with a local presence across each of our destinations.
For every region — Valais, Ticino, Grisons, French Alps, Northern Italian Lakes, Mediterranean France, Atlantic Region, and Andalusia — a Territory Portfolio Manager oversees operations.
They act as the owner’s single point of contact, ensuring that communication, logistics, and service quality remain consistent and transparent. Each manager is trained in both hospitality standards and property management, blending data-driven oversight with a deep respect for the individuality of each home.

The Housekeeping Team
Housekeeping is at the heart of our signature. Our cleaning and linen specialists are selected through a rigorous process and trained according to de Mile & Gard’s internal standards — focusing on precision, presentation, and discretion.
From the quiet perfection of a folded sheet to the care of natural materials, their gestures are deliberate, thoughtful, and guided by an understanding of what makes a home truly feel ready.

The Local Partners
We collaborate exclusively with trusted local artisans and service providers — electricians, plumbers, gardeners, chauffeurs, house painters, heating engineers, and maintenance experts — all chosen for their reliability and professionalism.
Beyond technical skill, we value those who share our sense of place: individuals who know the rhythm of their region and care about preserving its character. This network allows us to respond swiftly and elegantly to every need, while ensuring that the soul of each home remains intact.

Our Manifesto
The Art of Care
de Mile & Gard — Signature Home Management
Because there is an art to caring for places —
and a craft to serving those who inhabit them.
At de Mile & Gard, we cultivate the art of savoir-servir:
a subtle, almost invisible art, where discretion, precision, and presence come together in perfect balance.
Every property deserves the right kind of attention.
Every gesture matters — made in respect of the place, of time, and of those who pass through it.
Our home management service is dedicated to owners of rental properties and second homes seeking an approach that is impeccable, confidential, and deeply human.
A trusted partner, attentive to the soul of each home as much as to its use.
We serve properties that carry a story.
Homes people return to.
Refuges, landmarks — places that stay with you.
Our commitment is simple:
to serve each entrusted space with care,
to honor its singularity with rigor,
and to accompany every owner with heart.
