When you look for a vacation home, you look for the whole package. You want to walk in the door and be in a home that has whisked you away to a perfect escape from the rest of the world.
If you are trying to add value to your vacation home, making sure it is properly decorated to create this feeling is essential.
You need to create a space that is welcoming and inviting at a glance. After all, that is often all those considering renting your vacation home will get - a glance at a photo in a brochure.
Your best bet is to look at Shabby Chic or Cottage Décor. Often people think that when they are decorating they need to go with a complete old country feel. But not everyone wants to feel like they have stepped back in time 100-200 years and that they have to work to get through their day. They want the comforts of old country and cottage life while still appreciating their status.
Incorporating cottage and shabby chic furniture into your vacation rental is not a difficult proposition. Think of what makes cottage furniture work. It's not necessarily the shape of the pieces of furniture, but the accents that really sell it or fail.
Your couches and chairs should offer plenty of extra support in the form of pillows. We are not just talking about physical support, but visual support as well. A pillow that has embroidered sea turtles, shells or other nautical treasures on them add to the theme of your home.
Do not forget the finishing touches.
f there is a lot of wall space or plenty of open tabletops, make sure to dress them up with wall art, mirrors or decorative objects that add that finishing touch to your theme.
