It's always important for holiday rental owners to review their holiday rental and their guest experience and to examine other ways to make sure they are earning the full potential income on their vacation property.

  1. Listing your holiday rental on Search and Stay is a great first step to making extra money on your holiday rental with no commission payment or owner charges.
  2. Offer additional amenities: Providing guests with extra amenities such as toiletries, towels, or even a continental breakfast can increase your nightly rate and make your listing more appealing.
  3. Enhance your space: Investing in furniture and decor upgrades can make your space more attractive to guests and increase the overall perceived value of your rental.
  4. Examine seasonal demand: Take advantage of seasonal demand by adjusting your nightly rate accordingly. For example, raise your rates during peak tourist season or during popular events in your area.
  5. Optimise your listing: Make sure your Search and Stay listing is accurately priced and well-presented, with high-quality photos and a detailed description.
  6. Offer longer-term rentals: Consider offering discounts for guests who stay for an extended period of time, such as a week or a month. This can be especially appealing for travellers on extended business trips or for families relocating to a new city.
  7. Be flexible with check-in and check-out times: Offering flexible check-in and check-out times can make your property more appealing to guests, especially those with early morning or late-night travel plans.
  8. Install smart home technology: Installing smart home technology such as smart locks or voice-activated lighting can make the check-in and check-out process more seamless for guests and add a touch of luxury to your rental.
  9. Provide an exceptional guest experience: Going above and beyond to provide exceptional guest service and holiday experience such as making your holiday rental welcoming with a letter or basket, including basics and essentials for guest convenience and offering personalised recommendations for local attractions, travel experiences, cafes and restaurants, can help you stand out from the guest experience of other holiday rentals and increase your bookings.
  10. Offer discounts: Encourage guests to book your holiday rental by offering discounts at quiet times throughout the year or special offers for a longer or mid-week stay.
  11. If you are located close by offer experiences: If you have a unique skill or talent, consider offering an experience to guests. This can be a great way to supplement your income and provide guests with a memorable and authentic experience.
