3 Marketing Tips to Increase Vacation Rental Reservations

Three ways to increase your vacation rental business during the slow season:

1.  Cater to young families by offering along with their stay some toys and games that you can leave at your vacation rental for them to find.  You can leave a list of nearby children friendly facilities along with a list of baby sitting services. 

2.  You can cater to wedding parties, stags and does, anniversary and birthday  parties. 

If you have a large enough facility and the grounds to accommodate actual weddings on your property this might be an additional service you can offer. 

Weddings are now more about the destination as there is an increase in groups going to Jamaica and other islands for wedding parties. 

On that note you can cater to the older couples who are getting married for a second time and want to stay closer to home. 


3. Specializing in one market place is a good idea for increasing your business. For  example if you want to be pet friendly you need to get yourself listed on pet friendly websites. 

There's a whole new market place that you can cater to.   You can find the pet friendly listing sites by googling the words "pet friendly hotels". 

These are a few ides they I've seen working out very well with some of my Vacation rental and B&B buddies.  

Happy Investing
