Fresh Products in the Vacation Rental Industry Mean Less Worrying

Passive assistant-listening devices such as the Amazon Echo, Google Home, and Apple Homebot can play music, order products, and answer questions- effectively transforming your house into a smart home.
Noise Monitoring Devices
The vacation rental industry benefits from noise monitoring devices. Companies such as Noise Aware and Minut let you purchase a passive listening device that sends your phone an alert when ambient noise levels exceed a preset limit, effectively eliminating loud parties at your vacation rental.
