Just posted a listing . Appreciate your comments

Hi I have just published a listing. I am maybe a little premature as it is just complete and we have a few weeks finishing outside but i didn't want to miss Spring / Summer Bookings. I have blocked out until March 21st until I know everything is 100% complete and I will update photos as I go along.

Looking forward to hearing your comments

@Orlagh1 Wow love it! Well done. Longtime superhost here and recommend adding art - vintage if you can find it and maybe some vintage decor pieces or furniture. I second the other host input like adding plants, layers, throws etc - you're at the fun stage now 🙂 Don't forget pics of amenities too like soaps, towels etc. Professional photos are great but you can also get by at first with your own. Take interior shots from waist height and brighten the exposure, a subtle filter is ok but nothing obvious and use the same filter for all interior shots. No wide angle shots. Guests love vignettes! Guests also love seeing how and where they'll make and drink their coffee and tea lol and more shots of the nearest things to do/attractions and quaint shops/restaurants on the closest high street - you can probably find some that are public domain. Tell them why you love the area so they can experience it like a local. Have fun and don't worry about not getting it perfect from the jump - you'll learn as you go! I'm bookmarking your listing - it's exactly the kind of place I love to stay.

Hi @Anna10478

 

Thanks so much for your reply, I have carried out a few of yours and others tips with the photos by getting professional photos done and adding a few touches with more to come. The Listing I am continuously working on everyday adding stuff and my guidebook.

Fortunately my condo is very energy efficient now that I installed a mini split.
