Seaside Vacations is pretty excited to participate in the second annual Vacation Rental Week! We'd like to use this opportunity to highlight the value and key benefits of professionally-managed vacation rentals for both guests and property owners alike and to encourage you to book a stay or entrust your vacation property to a professional manager.
As a guest, vacation rentals are a great alternative to hotels in every aspect, offering you much more for your money, with additional space, privacy, convenience, and amenities included. Vacation rentals offer a cleaner, more socially-distanced experience as well, with fewer touchpoints and outside interaction compared to hotels, which is a key benefit as we navigate the last mile of the pandemic.
Vacation rentals also present you with a unique opportunity to create a more personalized, memorable vacation experience when compared with traditional hotels. You'll have the practical comfort of an actual residence, the ability to explore the neighborhood, and the opportunity to discover aspects of your destination you might not encounter when staying at a hotel. If you're vacationing with family, vacation rentals are an excellent option, typically offering multiple bedrooms, kitchens, laundry rooms, and easy access to local entertainment.
For property owners, safely renting your second property through a professional manager can be an easy and reliable revenue source, transforming it into an asset that offers a significant return on your investment. You'll also be able to use the property when you choose, spending your own vacations there with family, while renting it to guests the rest of the year.
A professional vacation rental manager will handle all the logistics, securing responsible guests, and maximizing your return through an expert understanding of the industry and in-depth knowledge of the local community. They'll also handle cleaning the property to the highest standards, advertise, handle inquiries, collect deposits and balances, generate agreements, and follow-up post-rental, so you can sit back and simply enjoy the experience.
