The Importance of Interior Design in Holiday Rentals: Standing Out in a Saturated Market

The Importance of Interior Design in Holiday Rentals: Standing Out in a Saturated Market

In a conversation the other day, I heard a familiar lament: a holiday rental owner was struggling with low bookings. It's a common tale in today's saturated holiday let market. Many people hopped on the holiday rental bandwagon, lured by the promise of easy and quick money. Unfortunately, some furnished their properties with the cheapest items available or neglected interior design altogether.

Now, the market is flooded, and standing out from the competition is more challenging than ever. This is where the importance of interior design comes into play. Investing in a well-designed interior can make all the difference in attracting potential guests and securing bookings.

Think about it: when guests scroll through countless listings, what will make them stop and choose yours? It's not just about the location or price anymore; it's about offering something unique and aspirational. A thoughtfully designed interior can be that distinguishing factor that sets your property apart from the rest.

By investing in quality furnishings, paying attention to details, and creating a cohesive design scheme, you're giving potential guests a reason to choose your holiday rental over others. It's about creating an experience that they can't resist—a home away from home that they'll be excited to stay in.

So, if you're struggling to attract bookings for your holiday rental, take a closer look at your interior design. Consider how you can elevate the look and feel of your property to appeal to discerning traveler’s. Remember, in a saturated market, standing out is key, and aspirational interiors can be your secret weapon.

3 things I would never do as an interior designer

Imposing my personal style

Lots of clients come to me for my personal style and want an interpretation if it for themselves. But as an interior designer, I also firmly believe in respecting my clients’ individual tastes and preferences. While I may have a penchant for certain design elements I understand that my clients may not want an exact replica of my style and I will always make sure to include elements of their personal style into the design so each clients home is unique and a reflection of them.

Lack of budget transparency

From the outset of a project, I make it a point to provide my clients with clear and transparent pricing options. I provide a comprehensive breakdown of all the costs and provide alternative options for many sourced items at various price points for the clients to choose from. Although these proposals demand time and effort, I consider it essential for establishing clarity regarding costs and expectations. This approach empowers my clients to make well-informed decisions, aligning the project with their financial goals and preferences based on our past experiences.

Overwhelming with options

In the pursuit of providing exceptional service, I am mindful of overwhelming my clients with too many options. We are appointed for our expertise, and while variety can be stimulating, inundating clients with endless choices can lead to uncertainty. Fortunately, we have had lots of repeat clients, who really trust the process, this approach not only saves time and reduces stress for my clients but also results in a more cohesive and harmonious design outcome.
