In this episode, we dive into the essentials every host should consider when setting up a vacation rental property. From choosing the right electronic lock for guest convenience and security, to selecting the right beds and furniture (yes, even a sofa sleeper—just don’t list it as a bed), we cover the details that make your rental stand out.

We also discuss how to set up a well-equipped kitchen, why landlord or commercial insurance is critical for protection, and the must-have safety features such as smoke detectors, fire extinguishers, and even a second-floor escape ladder. You’ll learn why adding a programmable thermostat improves both guest experience and energy efficiency, and how features like a pool fence or locking door can protect your guests while keeping your property compliant with safety standards.

This podcast is hosted by an experienced partner in ChristiesGulfBeachRentals.com on the Mississippi Gulf Coast, who has personally purchased, set up, and managed dozens of vacation rental properties over many years. The insights shared come directly from real-world experience, offering practical guidance you won’t find in generic guides.

Packed with actionable tips, this episode helps new and seasoned hosts alike create safe, comfortable, and profitable vacation rentals. Stay tuned for the next episode, where we’ll continue with even more insider knowledge on making your property a success.
