Short term rental must haves
13
items These are all items that we have used in one or both of our vacation rentals. Some may be obvious, some you might not have thought of, but they're all tried and true and we'd buy them again in a second!
My number 1 recommendation and first purchase for a new short term rental property! Easy to set up, easy to lock and unlock, and you can change the access code remotely via the app!
Smart Lock C220 - Secure, Convenient Home Access | Halloween Sale 2025
Love these especially if your rental is geared towards outdoorsy guests! Put one near each door. They work so well and changing the cartridges is oddly satisfying
Flying Insect Trap, Fly Trap (1 Plug-In Base + 1 Cartridge)
A must have. Guests don’t always come prepared for accidents but things happen and they will be grateful to find this in your rental!
First Aid Kit
A good nights sleep is essential and will help your rating! Add one to each bed plus one in a closet for each pull out sofa!
Mattress Topper
Having somewhere to put luggage will make the bedroom feel much more cozy
AMHANCIBLE Foldable Luggage Rack Set of 2
Self explanatory I think! I’ve purchased this for our rentals again and again! Always a popular addition to the bathroom.
Poo-Pourri Before-You-Go Toilet Spray, 2oz
We’ve purchased these sheets again and again. We always go with all white for ease of cleaning. They are super affordable and very soft and comfy. You’ll need a few sets for each bed.
Amazon Basics Ultra Soft Microfiber 4-Pc King Sheet Set
Absolutely love this floor cleaner for any wood, tile, etc. It’s very easy to use and works amazingly well- it’s like a vacuum and mop in one! Makes floor cleaning a breeze.
Tineco iFLOOR 3 Breeze Cordless Wet Dry Mop
If your rental is near a beach, you’ll want to provide as many beach accessories as possible to make your guests stay the best it can be. These chairs fold up slim for storage and are easy to carry to the beach.
CARIBBEAN JOE Folding Beach Chair Lightweight
We supply as many baby and kid items as we can to make traveling a little easier for parents. A high chair is a simple item that parents will be so grateful for!
Funny Supply 3-in-1 Folding High Chair Cream
A portable crib is another item that parents will be so grateful to find in your rental. It’s a great amenity to offer!
Pamo Babe Travel Crib Lightweight Playard
We love to provide a coffee station with a Keurig and all the supplies! This model holds plenty of water and even has an iced coffee option! Guests love being able to make their own coffee in the comfort of our cozy rentals.
Keurig K-Elite Single Serve Coffee Maker
We supply the K- cups for the Keurig in our rental, and we offer high quality coffee to our guests! They notice the difference and little things like this really set us apart from the rentals that cut corners
