Providing your guests with a restaurant binder full of local recommendations can greatly improve their rental experience.
Creating an amazing vacation rental experience comes down to the details. You don’t want your guests to just have a great time when they’re staying at your property. You want them to have a fantastic experience during their entire vacation. One of the strategies you can use to improve your guests’ experience in your city and at your rental is to offer a “Best Of” restaurant binder that contains the best eateries in the area.
Your vacation guests don’t know the area like you do. When looking for a great restaurant, they may benefit greatly from your personal recommendation.
Tab It Out By Food Type
As you explore local restaurants, take note of what they offer to your guests. Create tabs in your restaurant binder based on the different types of food the area offers. This way, your rental guests can flip straight to what they’re craving and have the information in the palm of their hands. Include things like:
- The best seafood (with call-outs for the best crab, the best crab cakes, or the best local favorites)
- The best Bloody Mary
- The best pizza in town (Make sure to highlight the places that deliver!)
- The best Mexican restaurant
- The bar or restaurant with the best Happy Hour
- The best Chinese food (Don’t forget to mention take-out or delivery options!)
- The best sushi
Mention Special Occasion or Event Restaurants
Don’t just focus on specific types of food. You may also want to look at where your vacation rental guests might want to go for specific occasions. Try listing:
- The best breakfast or brunch locations
- The best restaurants for a date night out
- Restaurants with a unique atmosphere
- The best family-friendly restaurants in the area
- Any unique restaurants likely to appeal to tourists
Provide the Right Information
Make sure your restaurant binder includes all the details that vacation rental guests might need to have a great dining experience. In addition to the names of relevant restaurants and “Best Of” categories, your binder should offer:
- Information about restaurants that deliver
- Any information your vacation rental guests might need to receive a delivery (gate codes, access information)
- Menu copies—many are available online!
- Highlights about specific restaurants
- Any information they might need to have a great experience with the restaurant, including whether they may require reservations and when to make them
- The restaurant’s address and, if possible, an approximate drive or walk time from your vacation rental
Many people look for great restaurants when they go on vacation. It’s a critical part of their overall vacation experience. When they come to visit your local area, make sure they have the information they need to have a great experience, from details about the best restaurants to insights into the places that might best fit their needs. With a comprehensive “Best Of” restaurant binder, you can provide your guests with all the information they need to have a great night out or a quiet night in—and entice them to come back to explore more restaurants in the future.
