Coffee Makers Can Help Your Guests Feel at Home

Part of providing an excellent guest experience when renting your home to vacationers are the simple hospitality items that you’d find in a normal hotel room. For instance, fresh linens, small toiletry items, a small supply of paper products, etc. are common items vacation renters expect to find.

Another item is a coffee maker; 62% of Americans enjoy a cup of coffee daily, and that number is growing. What’s more, of those coffee drinkers, 79% prefer to brew their coffee at home rather than a cruise through the local Starbucks drive-thru.

Make Sure You’re Covered

Reminder: Check with your Insurance Agent before offering food and drink, as there may be exclusions in your insurance policy, even if it is designed for short-term rentals. Your best bet is to provide only prepackaged items and include language in your rental waiver about the products you offer.

Concerned that you might not be covered? Call Proper Insurance today at 888-631-6680.

Coffee makers can be as inexpensive as $20 or as extravagant as several thousand dollars for a restaurant-quality machine. The needs of your short-term rental guests likely will be covered by the lower-end coffee makers unless you have a high-end rental, in which case you may want the coffee machine to match the upscale experience.

It’s these extra comforts of home that will make guests want to return to your rental property for their next vacation.
