Meet Emily Revell – Owner
Having visited Revelstoke every year since the ski hill opened in 2007, it came as no surprise to most that Emily moved to Revelstoke permanently in 2011. As a self-acclaimed Revelstoke local, she has always been interested in what ignites people to want to visit or move to Revelstoke. After graduating from university with a Bachelor of Tourism Management degree, she knew it was her destiny to do something different and share the beauty of Revelstoke with the world.
Stay Revy was started as a passion project from years of experience in the hospitality industry. Emily desired to create something that drew people to Revelstoke and contributed to the well-being of residents, especially those with properties to offer to visitors. Stay Revy’s vision is to make renting your property in Revelstoke profitable and straightforward. Emily’s personal mission is to provide a bespoke service to both owners and guests, drawing the line closer between locals and travellers alike.
