How to Advertise a Holiday Property Online

State the location, accommodation type, sleeping capacity, room layout, access, parking, outdoor areas and important restrictions. Explain stairs, steps, shared facilities, heating, internet, pets, smoking and accessibility where relevant. Do not describe a feature as available unless it has been checked.

Show the rooms, exterior, views, access route and relevant facilities honestly. Keep photographs current and avoid images that make a space look larger or better equipped than it is. Captions can clarify what guests can expect and which facilities are shared or seasonal.

Explain the rental period, base price, cleaning, linen, utilities, deposit, taxes, booking fees and any optional charges. State the currency and the conditions for changes or cancellation. The guide to setting a rental price can help owners build a realistic calculation before publishing.

Tell guests how keys are handed over, when they can arrive, who to contact during the stay and how urgent problems are handled. If the owner is remote, arrange a dependable local contact for cleaning, repairs and emergencies. Keep booking information consistent with the listing.

Check every claim against the property, current rules and the agreed booking conditions. Update the listing when equipment, prices, access or availability changes. For preparation tasks, use the holiday-property preparation checklist.
