[Celebration] My World of Welcome

Welcome to my corner of the world Down Under, in Huskisson, where we share our beach cottage, Hidden Gem. We believe every guest who knocks on our door deserves to be greeted with warmth, respect, and genuine hospitality. Our goal is to ensure they feel welcome, valued, and leave as friends.

 

Making our guests feel welcome begins from the moment a booking is confirmed. We send a thank-you note along with details about the check-in process, local community highlights, and an invitation to let us know if they need anything special, such as a porta cot, highchair, or nappy bin.

 

On arrival we personally greet our guests, show them through the accommodation, and provide thoughtful touches like a welcome note and a breakfast hamper stocked for both continental and cooked breakfasts. For families, we include small gifts for the children, along with games and books to enjoy.

 

We also share up-to-date information about Huskisson, including recommendations for tourist attractions, activities, dining, and shopping. Guests will find the cottage well-stocked with quality linens, bedding, and kitchen equipment to ensure their stay is comfortable. If a guest mentions that they are celebrating a special occasion, we leave a card and a small gift. During festive seasons we add seasonal touches. For example, Easter eggs in the morning and a small Christmas present to bring a little cheer.

 

Before our guests leave, we always take a moment to thank them for staying and send a message wishing them safe travels.

 

At Hidden Gem, our personal touch turns a simple stay into an experience for them to reflect our spirit of a World of Welcome.

Hey @Laurelle3 !

It’s truly wonderful to find host as caring as you, who knows how to turn a simple stay into a meaningful experience.

 

I believe guests deeply value personal attention and thoughtful details and when they arrive as strangers and leave as friends, it speaks volumes about the true essence of hospitality ❤️

 

Sending you warm greetings from Tenerife 🌴🌴

Happy holidays and all the best for 2025!

Hi @Laurelle3 😊

You truly capture the essence of making guests feel at home! 😍

I love how you also adapt to special occasions and seasonal events to make stays even more meaningful.

 

What strategies do you use to ensure the personal touches remain consistent and thoughtful, even during peak booking times?

 

Happy holidays! 🌟

 

Warm regards 🌻,
