As the weather gets crisp and the holidays start to approach it’s time to start decorating. When we think of the holiday season we may forget that our short-term rentals need to be put in the holiday spirit as well. With an estimated 15 billion trips being taken during the holidays to visit loved ones or just to get away for a few days when everyone is out of school and off work, guests still want it to feel like it’s the holiday season. Here are a few affordable Amazon finds that can bring a little home for the holiday’s feel into your short-term rental space.

Deck the Halls

Put your guests in the holiday spirit before they even enter your abode. Welcome them with a festive wreath or door hanger on the front door.

Adorn the Mantel 

The mantel or a shelf is a great way to give the feel that Old Saint Nick will be dropping by soon. Adding simple stockings and some garland will give your guests the feel of the holidays without having to add a Christmas tree.

A Cozy Place to Gather

The holiday season means cozy nights in, all snuggled together, and what better way to encourage the snuggles than with a throw blanket and comfy seasonal pillows.

Add a Festive Ambiance

Nothing says the Holidays like the smells of Balsam firs, cinnamon, and cloves.  Adding a centerpiece to the table can give your guests the feeling of home when they gather together over their meal.
