How to promote activities around your home

There are several types of travelers. Those who go on vacation to relax, and who activate the farniente mode from the very first minutes. And those who want to do it all, see it all and discover it all. You need to provide them with all the information they need, according to their interests. Whether it’s places to relax for some, or physical and cultural activities for others.

When you write your rental ad, it’s in your interest to make it as attractive as possible, while sticking to the truth. Once you’ve described your property and its facilities, don’t hesitate to take the time to describe the strengths of the surrounding area. If you’re not sure how to do this, think about what you want and need to know when you go on vacation. All you have to do is adapt it to your location. Group nature activities together, indicating whether there are hiking trails or watering holes. Include museums, amusement parks and children’s activities. Finally, talk about the choice of restaurants, towns and villages to visit. You want your future guests to want to book with you, because they’re bound to find something they like.

When travelers arrive, it’s essential that they find the information they’re looking for quickly. Ideally, this should be communicated to them orally, but we recommend that you use the StyQR welcome booklet instead. The Around Me module is the ideal place to gather all the useful information you need about your surroundings. You’ll find categories such as transportation, activities, restaurants, museums and monuments. All you have to do is fill in the categories that correspond to your rental and tell us as much as you can.
Don’t hesitate to include opening hours, telephone numbers or prices in the comments section. There’s no limit to the number of locations you can list. This is a big plus, as it gives your travelers a real choice of different activities.
It’s also very easy to update, as all you have to do is delete or add a place of interest.
