5 Beautiful Additions To Your Vacation Rental Property

Here are five additions that could keep your property busy this summer.

Free Wi-Fi and Netflix

A Small Convenience Store

Holiday apartments sit far from public markets and thrift shops. Thus, most guests would either travel far to buy some goods or eat the same food they ate from a few days ago.

To provide a wide array of food choices and a place to buy fresh produce and other essentials, set up a 24/7 convenience store a few steps away from the property. Instead of losing potential income, shall your guests decide to step out, let them savor some instant noodles, hotdog sandwiches, and other snacks they can buy back at home.

Pet-Friendly Facilities

People who usually opt for extended stays and would probably spend more would have pet companions. Don’t ignore this particular customer segment, or you would have missed a lot of sales opportunities.

Allowing pets opens doors for increase income as you may offer amenities like a dog nursery, grooming services, a mini-pet shop, and more. However, it’s important to emphasize the house rules with the pet owner and provide some guidelines for handling their pet to prevent unwanted circumstances.

A Beautiful Kitchen

Guests would be happier to see their apartment with complete cookware and other amenities. It means that they can enjoy their long vacation without having to break the bank by ordering fancy meals every day or eating what’s only available on the nearby restaurant’s menu.

Invest in quality cookware, dining utensils, a high-quality exhaust system, and modern appliances like food processors, juicers, microwave ovens, and more.

Takeaway
