The big question many owners ask us is how to "secure personal items," which is a perfectly legitimate concern when it comes to short-term rentals. Our Welkeys concierges are experienced and trained in check-in, check-out, and property inspection procedures for short-term rentals on Airbnb, HomeAway, Wimdu, Abritel, Likibu, and more.
We’ve put together a few tips here so you can head off with peace of mind. Securing your belongings when handing over keys to your Airbnb guests is essential. You don't want your things to go missing, or worse, return to an empty apartment when you thought you were hosting a nice, honest couple. Here are several ways to hand over your keys to one of our Welkeys concierges and travel with peace of mind:
Lock up closets in your short-term rental
Buy a padlock and install it on a closet door you want to keep locked during your Airbnb guests' stay. Store your personal items inside and keep the key in a safe place.
Close off rooms in your vacation rental
Do you have multiple rooms in your apartment available for short-term rental? We suggest closing off one of them to store any furniture or other items you value. You don't need to put everything from your apartment in that room. The "home away from home" rental concept is also about having guests who feel like they are staying in a real home rather than a sterile space. Keep this in mind; it will earn you great reviews on Airbnb, Abritel, Lodgis, and others.
Provide linens specifically for your guests
If you are truly uncomfortable with strangers sleeping in your sheets or using your household linens, such as bath towels or dishcloths, don't hesitate to provide extra sets. Your Welkeys concierge will set them up and take care of them before your guests arrive. By following these professional short-term rental management tips, you are all set to head off with peace of mind, knowing you can rent on Airbnb, Abritel, Wimdu, HomeAway, or Likibu with complete confidence.
