It is finally that time of year again when the weather begins to warm up and the thoughts of spring return. We are gearing up for another exciting spring season that includes the ever popular Spring Break. Everyone knows Spring Break is a popular time of year for travel as kids are on a short break from school and the parents are ready for a bit of fun. Spring Break is especially popular here in Arizona as the temps have not hit high digits yet, so many out of town travelers will visit the state. Now is the perfect time to get your vacation rental prepared for your Spring Break in Arizona. Here is how you want to do that:
Little Bit of Spring Cleaning
There is the age old saying that the spring season is the perfect time for a little bit of spring cleaning. This can always be true when managing your vacation rental and just in time for Spring Break. Vacation homes can be known to host many furniture and items that property owners do not want to keep at their primary residence. Use the spring season to go through what items you no longer need and get rid of the clutter. Spring Break is all about excitement and movement, so having extra items around will only get in the way for your guests.
Have Spring Related Items Available for Guests
The addition of Spring Break means that you will have plenty of guests who are ready to enjoy some sunshine. There are so many outdoor activities to enjoy in Scottsdale, Sedona, and Flagstaff that your guests may not know what to do. Having a guide book on hand at your property with recommendations can help them experience the perfect vacation. Once they have an idea of what to do they will need the tools to do them. This includes having items on hand to make their experience easier. This can simply be having pool towels readily available for properties that have a swimming pool and/or hot tub. It can also be having hiking gear for homes located up North where most individuals want to hit the trails. Having items on hand for your guests will have them leaving happy and satisfied with their stay.
Prepare for Snow Bowl
Our properties in Flagstaff can still experience snow in early March when many Phoenix Valley schools are on Spring Break. Snow Bowl, our local skiing mountain, tends to not shut down for the season until early to mid-April. If you have skiing or snowboard gear on hand for your guests to use they will be thrilled to save on the overall cost of their rentals. This is especially important for our Flagstaff homes that are located just off the interstate on the way up to Snow Bowl.
Stage Your Backyard
Spring Break is a time when most individuals are ready to experience some warmer weather but do not always want to leave the home. By having a staged backyard that is ready for fun, you can help your guests have as much fun as possible. Many backyards that are ready for guests have some kind of covered patio. Shading them from the direct sun with patio lounge seating is always a great choice. Help them do some outdoor cooking by offering a BBQ grill or outdoor kitchen; everyone loves a good burger or steak over Spring Break! Outdoor patio tables are perfect to enjoy your meal outside with. We all know that Arizona can get hot especially in the summer. Spring Break is around the time the temps in Scottsdale start to climb up. Have your swimming pool ready for your guests to enjoy the moment they arrive. When they see a crystal-clear swimming pool ready for them to jump in they will be ready to return time and time again. Make sure your swimming pool is clean and ready for guests. If Spring Break is expected to have lower temps you can offer your guests the option to heat the pool for an additional fee. Hot tubs are another great choice they are perfect for any of our vacation rental locations in the state of Arizona. As you can see, the backyard really is the place to be for our clients over Spring Break.
