Preparing a property for short-term rental

Guests compare your property against hotels as much as other rentals. Preparation matters.

Essentials

Quality beds and linen, reliable Wi-Fi, a well-equipped kitchen, blackout curtains and clear instructions.

Safety

Smoke detectors, first-aid kit, fire extinguisher and any locally required documentation.

Presentation

Professional photography and a calm, uncluttered interior make the biggest difference to bookings.
