As a vacation rental host, one of your top priorities is making sure your guests have a clean and comfortable place to stay.

As a vacation rental host, one of your top priorities is making sure your guests have a clean and comfortable place to stay. Cleanliness is essential for all vacation rentals, but it's especially important in our post-COVID-19 pandemic world we live in today. When your rental property is clean, and offers the tools needed to keep it clean in the event of a mess, your guests will feel more comfortable and be more likely to leave positive reviews. To help you achieve this, we've put together a list of must-have cleaning supplies to keep on hand at your vacation rental.

  1. Multi-Purpose Cleaner

A multi-purpose cleaner is perhaps the most essential cleaning supply in your arsenal. It can be used on countertops, floors, and even in bathrooms. Choose one that's effective against germs and bacteria, as well as being safe for your floors and surfaces.

  1. Disinfectant Spray

In light of the COVID-19 pandemic, disinfectant sprays have become essential for vacation rental hosts. Use them on high-touch surfaces such as doorknobs, light switches, and remote controls. Make sure the spray you choose lists the virus as one of the things it kills.

  1. Microfiber Cloths

Microfiber cloths are effective at picking up dirt and debris on surfaces, and can be used with or without chemicals. They're also machine washable, making them an eco-friendly option. Keep a few different colors on hand to avoid cross-contamination and reduce any potential for spreading germs.

  1. Mop and Bucket

Floors can get dirty quickly, especially in high-traffic areas such as kitchens and entryways. A proper mop and bucket can help make quick work of any messes that arise. Choose a mop with a washable and reusable head to save on waste.

  1. Vacuum Cleaner

A high-quality vacuum cleaner is essential for keeping your carpets and upholstery clean. Consider investing in a cordless stick vacuum for convenience. It's also important to have a few different attachments on hand for reaching tight spaces and cleaning upholstery.

Keeping your vacation rental clean can be a lot of work, but having the right cleaning supplies on hand can make the job much easier. We recommend investing in high-quality, low-cost products that are effective against germs and bacteria, and safe for your surfaces. By prioritizing cleanliness, you'll not only impress your guests, but also create a more comfortable and enjoyable environment for them to stay in - driving positive reviews and more future bookings!
