Tips to save electricity in your vacation rental property.

1.Check the electrical installation.
It is probably the most important point of all. Electricity leaks are quite common. It is best to hire an electrical expert to review your installation and make sure there are no leaks, as well as perform the necessary maintenance.

2. Unplug appliances you don’t use.
A very common custom is to leave the devices connected to the current despite being turned off. Despite not being active, leaving them plugged in consumes energy in a constant and silent way that is reflected in the monthly bill. The extra seconds it takes to plug and unplug them when not in use can be very expensive, so take action.

3. Responsabily use of heaters or air conditioners.
Although it is not as common in the center and south of the country, the northern states spend a lot on heaters and air conditioning due to their extreme temperatures. To optimize use, be sure to keep your thermostat in good condition and regulated. Tell your guests to close the doors and windows when using them. Also check that there is no furniture obstructing its spread, and call an expert to check and maintain it at the beginning of the strongest hot or cold seasons of the year.
Is a good idea that the technician installs a lock for extreme temperatures that make your climate devices work too much.

Forget about the arduous task of keeping your property in excellent condition!

Business Travelers

The business traveler has different requirements related to their work activity, your vacation accommodation must have a good WiFi connection so that they can carry out their work from their computer. For this reason, having a good workplace for them is essential.

Couples

Depending on your age, it can be a more or less quiet sector. Although they are not a group characterized by organizing parties or causing problems, they can cause some other noise at night.

Children and dog

Couples with children can cause you some damage or other. Not that they organize wild parties or crazy parties in your apartment, but the little ones are unruly in nature and your guests may have to pay a little more in terms of security. Before they leave the apartment, it is best to take a look to see if they have caused any damage. As for pets, be sure to make it clear to the owner where their pet should relieve itself.

Groups of friends

Be careful with these guests. A crazy night in your holiday accommodation can cost you more than one dislike, so you have to be careful with these types of guests. For these types of clients, it is best to be prepared for the noise and perhaps post a deposit.

So, is the disappearance of hotels imminent? … Not exactly, although it is true that they have been forced to share a market with other online platforms, they continue to maintain a strong market. Even Airbnb has sought to diversify its business and include hotel rooms directly in its offer.
