How To Make Your Vacation Property Ready For The Holidays
You can do many things throughout the year to keep your vacation property appealing to guests, but there are more than a few things you can do specifically for the holiday season. These are some major ones that are sure to make an impression.
Cooking, Baking, Family Dinner Plans
No matter where you are during the holidays, a family dinner is common. Having the kitchen clean and ready for dinner prep makes sense. Ensure your kitchen has essential equipment for cooking, baking, eating, and replacing kitchen utensils that have walked off over the years.
Prepare A List Or An Email Blast About Upcoming Holiday Events
Give your guests some suggestions for festive holiday events on the islands. The holidays are packed with fun, family-friendly activities. Look for events like Christmas tree lighting ceremonies, holiday markets, holiday parades, marathons, boat parades, concerts, and more.
Encourage Creating Memories, and Traditions
Emphasize the extra value owners can provide to keep guests returning year after year and establish a holiday tradition of staying on their property. Start a rapport with your guests to make your vacation rental stand out. Welcoming baskets and thank-you follow-ups can go a long way toward building a connection and eventually starting a family tradition of celebrating the holiday season in Hawaii every year.
