Short-Term Rental Tips and Advice: Offering Extra Amenities

Providing extra services at your Airbnb property can significantly enhance the guest experience and set you apart from the competition. Guests often look for more than just a bedroom and a bathroom—they want to feel comfortable and enjoy additional amenities that make their stay unique. Here are some tips on how to offer extra amenities and improve your guests’ overall experience.

1. Personalized Services
   

   Offering personalized services can make a big difference. Consider providing services such as:

   
   

   • Local Activity Guide: Create a guide with recommendations for activities, restaurants, and attractions in the area. This will help your guests discover hidden gems and show that you care about their experience.

   • Transportation: Offer transport services to and from the airport or train station. This service can be especially appealing to guests visiting the area for the first time.

     
     

2. Experiences and Activities

   
   

   Think about organizing or recommending activities that will make the stay more enjoyable. This can include:

   
   

   • Recreational Activities: Partner with local providers to offer tours, classes, or other experiences, such as culinary tours or art workshops.

   • Special Packages: Offer packages that include activities or discounts at local businesses. Guests often look for added value during their stay.

     
     

3. Creating a Unique Atmosphere

   
   

   The atmosphere of your property can greatly impact the guest experience. Some ideas include:

   
   

   • Decor and Comfort: Create a warm and welcoming environment with thoughtful decor and comfortable furniture. Guests will appreciate the attention to detail.

   • Natural Elements: Consider adding plants or flowers for a fresher atmosphere.

     
     

4. Feedback and Adjustments

   
   

   After guests leave, ask them for feedback on the amenities you provided. This can help you improve your services in the future. You can make adjustments to your offerings based on their needs and preferences.
