Choosing the best accommodations for a vacation, whether it\u2019s a weekend getaway or a weeklong stay, is more than just a hotel happy hour and nice toiletries. Travelers are looking for more in their vacations. They want amenities that help them create a memorable experience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

While some people choose for the ease of a hotel, more travelers are using vacation rental sites like VRBO and Airbnb. They can filter their searches for the features and locations that will help them truly escape. They can choose properties with full kitchens and bicycles, pools and ocean views.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For property owners, it\u2019s important to make your vacation rental stand out from the rest. While you can\u2019t just create a view of the water or mountains, thoughtful design and amenities like a hot tub can help you attract more renters.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Designer Jess Davis transformed a turn-of-the-century cottage in St. Augustine, Florida, into a must-rent home for a beach vacation. Davis is known for her approachable yet sophisticated home design style and DIY projects.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Shire <\/em>is a 2-acre property that has views of a surrounding marsh, as well as the Atlantic Ocean. Guests can walk out to the pier or enjoy the view of the water while soaking in a Master Spas hot tub.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Clarity Spas Balance 7<\/a> is ideal for a vacation home like the Shire. It\u2019s spacious enough for six adults, while easy to maintain.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Designer Jess Davis installed a Clarity Spas Balance 7 at one of her rental properties. The hot tub is a premium amenity for guests.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Vacation home with hot tub<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

There\u2019s no doubt about it \u2014 amenities matter. An Airbnb survey<\/a> found that 97% of travelers say amenities affect their vacation. Some of the most popular amenities are about convenience \u2014 a coffee maker and free parking.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Also among the top 10 vacation rental amenities are features that add comfort \u2014 air conditioning, a pool, and hot tub. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

A hot tub is something that guests can enjoy, no matter the season or location. While Florida is known for being the Sunshine State, it\u2019s not always pool weather. In fact, the temperatures can be in the 40s at night in St. Augustine. And, in the winter, the high temperatures might not hit 70 degrees \u2014 definitely not pool weather.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But when guests book Davis\u2019 Shire property, they can enjoy the water of the Clarity Spas Balance 7 without dipping their toes in the cold water of the Atlantic Ocean. Guests can easily access the hot tub from the steps coming from the rooftop patio or the patio door.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You might wonder whether it’s worth it to install a hot tub at your vacation home. However, rentals with a spa are booked more frequently and at a higher nightly rate.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Should you install a hot tub in your vacation rental?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Vacationers want to check in to a property and check out from the stress of daily life. And what better way to do that than by soaking in your rental property\u2019s hot tub? <\/p>\n\n\n\n

But hot tubs are not just a way to attract more guests to your rental and demand a higher rate. The spa could be the deciding factor for potential guests, especially if you have a cabin or mountain area property. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

A vacation property with a spa can require additional upkeep. However, chemicals and maintenance do not have to be time-consuming. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Consider keeping a log that tracks any major repair work or mechanical servicing, as well as the next time it’s due. This log is especially helpful if you are contracting with a company to add chemicals to the hot tub or service it between guests.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It\u2019s also important to include guidelines for using the hot tub in your rental agreement. Be sure that they know how to safely use the spa, set a maximum temperature, and remind them that they are using it at their own risk. A damages clause is also important to add to the agreement.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
