California tourism is reaching pre-pandemic numbers, which means Orange needs to prepare itself for the incoming summer rush. With gorgeous beach aesthetics and Disneyland Park, there's so much to love about Orange in the summer.
Readying your summer vacation rental is crucial if you want to get the most business out of the tourists making their way here.
To help you figure out the most effective strategy, we've put together a list of the top rental tips. Read on to learn everything you need to do before summer arrives!
Plan Ahead
A key element to your summer success is to plan well ahead of time. Preparations will be much harder to complete in the middle of the summer rush.
Instead, start this process several months beforehand. This gives your beachfront property the updates it needs to satisfy the surge of guests.
Comprehensive Marketing
Attracting guests requires revamping your listing so you show potential guests that they can celebrate summer on your property with ease. You can do this in many ways, including:
- Uploading high-quality summer-inspired property photos
- Describe property amenities that'll make summer better
- Focus on fun-loving descriptors
- Show off nearby beaches and botanicals
Prepare Vacation Property
Since you'll be hosting many guests during the summer season, you'll need a good maintenance and cleaning plan. You don't want multiple days of downtime spent cleaning. This will prevent you from taking on more guests and lower your overall earnings.
Put together a thorough cleaning list so you can go through the property in record time and get it back on the market as soon as possible.
Optimize Pricing
With higher demand comes the joy of dynamic pricing. You want to have competitive rates while still earning a profit. Don't be afraid to adjust your pricing per booking so that both you and your guest get the most from the exchange.
Minimum stay requirements and discounts for guests who stay for a long time can make a big difference in the success of your property.
Enhanced Guest Experience
The types of amenities you offer will impact the number of bookings you'll receive. Even with the increase of interested guests during the summer season, you need to stand out among the crowd.
Remember that your guests are coming to you for their vacation, not a hotel. While professionalism is important, personality is also a vital part of your rental's appeal.
Give your guests a personal insight into local attractions, such as your favorite restaurants or seaside shops. This gives your listing a unique charm they can't get anywhere else.
