House Cleaning Tips That Get You Great Reviews

You know this very well: every season is peak season for vacation rentals in Santa Fe NM, and the holidays and winter activities are opportunities for Airbnb and vacation rental owners to stand out and ensure glowing reviews that will bring more business in the year to come. How to make this happen? By partnering with expert vacation rental cleaning services, who know how to deliver and leave every Airbnb spotless! 

With travelers flocking to enjoy the city’s festive lights, winter landscapes, and cozy Southwest charm, the holidays are a busy season. With one booking after another, Airbnb and vacation rental owners need to make lasting impressions and ensure all cleaning aspects are covered. 

Cleaning Reset
As a vacation rental owner you can approach holiday prep like a “deep reset”. Think about the things that can improve from a house cleaning perspective, and implement the changes you’ve been putting off, as long as they are not too dramatic and interfere with the cleanliness and organization of the vacation rental property. 

Getting a five-star review is the goal of any Airbnb or vacation rental owner, and you don’t want to miss any opportunity to get one. Since the devil is in the details, HomeHotel Luxury Cleaning has made this ‘cheat-sheet’, a list of things to review prior to Guests arriving, to ensure the vacation rental cleaning has been done properly: 

  • Ensure all linens, blankets, and towels are freshly washed and neatly folded. Vacation rental Guests can tell when the linens have been stored in a closet for too long.
  • Trash and recycling bins emptied and clean. No visible odors in any area of the house. 
  • Floors vacuumed/mopped with no debris or stains, including under the furniture (not just around it).
  • Any good house cleaning is not done until all high-touch surfaces have been polished: doorknobs, switches, and countertops. 
  • When house cleaning for Airbnb, all bedrooms should look pristine. Check the beds have no stains, hair, or wrinkles, and ensure every bed has mattress protectors and pillow covers in perfect shape.
  • Keep all linens, extra pillows and blankets at hand, clean and stored neatly.
  • In house cleaning, dusting is essential and sometimes, overlooked. Make sure the property is well-dusted, from top cabinets to tables and of course, all closets. In many cases closets and hangers are overlooked, but many Guests like to come in and unpack, finding dust in the wrong places.
  • Many Airbnbs and vacation rental properties included a fireplace, make sure it’s cleaned and ready to use — nothing says “holiday comfort” like a safe, crackling fire.
