4 Things to Avoid When Redecorating Your Holiday Home

Holiday homes (or vacation homes in North America) are the perfect escape from the rest of the world and, if you play your cards right and rent them out during the summer months, a brilliant source of income. However, not every holiday home looks perfect, to begin with. They often need renovating to reach their full potential. But knowing your holiday home might face scrutiny from those you’re renting to, many property owners don’t know how to go about decorating. So, we’ve written this article to give our readers some helpful tips on everything they need to avoid when doing up their holiday home. Keep reading to find out what they are.

Doing It Yourself

Though DIY is a great idea when refurbishing your own property, you should avoid it where possible when decorating your holiday home. There are certain standards for safety and aesthetics that your property must meet if you want to successfully rent it out to other people. Therefore, you should hire professional contractors to do the big jobs for you, as this will help to ensure your holiday home is meeting safety standards and has a sophisticated finish. For example, we recommend using a painting contractor Boca Raton based for your interior and exterior painting, and a specialist fitter when installing new flooring.

Buying Cheap

Many people want to save money wherever they can when redecorating because of how expensive it can be overall. However, buying cheap could actually end up costing you much more in the long run. This doesn’t mean to say you need to spend an absolute fortune, though. Instead, you should focus on cost-effectiveness when redecorating your holiday home. We recommend purchasing furnishing made from beautiful, high-quality materials that are durable. This is will keep everything looking better for longer, which is especially important when hosting guests who might damage things.

Decorating to Your Taste

Personal touches will go a long way when it comes to creating a cosy and welcoming holiday home. This being said, it’s important to not go overboard and decorate the place according to your taste. While you want everything to look nice, keep in mind that not everybody will like what you do. You might end up deterring potential customers, otherwise. So, it’s better to choose furnishings that are subtle and sophisticated, appealing to a broad range of tastes.

Catering to One Type of Person

When decorating your holiday home, you should also avoid only catering to one party size because this will limit the scope of your customers. For example, try including multiple bedrooms in your property, and ensuring there’s enough space in the communal areas for larger families. Moreover, consider the type of person who might want to rent your home for the summer. Are there suitable facilities for those with disabilities or children? Will older couples have trouble getting up the stairs to the bathroom?

We hope you have found this guide helpful. By following this advice, your holiday home is sure to be a success. Learn more about holiday home rentals from an experienced Holiday letting agency.
