Entertainment amenities are mentioned in 67% of 5-star reviews. Guests specifically call out quality TVs, coffee makers, and entertainment options as reasons they'd book again.
Most STRs have basic 43" TVs with no soundbar and cheap coffee makers.
Upgrading to 55-65" smart TVs with quality sound and premium coffee creates immediate differentiation. Guests notice and choose your property over competitors.
Large TVs and entertainment setups photograph well and make spaces feel upscale.
Professional listing photos featuring quality entertainment equipment increase click-through rates by 15-20%. Guests visualize themselves relaxing and enjoying the space.
Quality entertainment encourages guests to spend more time at your property.
Properties with premium entertainment see 20% longer average stays and higher rebooking rates. Guests enjoy the property itself rather than treating it as just a place to sleep.
We only recommend TVs with built-in Roku, Fire TV, or Google TV. External streaming devices create guest confusion and support headaches. TCL and Samsung offer the best value for STR use— reliable, easy to use, and guests already know how to operate them.
Soundbars must connect via HDMI ARC (one cable, automatic power on/off). Avoid complex surround sound systems—guests won't use them correctly. Sonos offers the best combination of sound quality and ease of use. Guests notice the audio upgrade immediately.
Traditional coffee makers create cleaning issues and guest complaints about stale coffee. Keurig and Nespresso eliminate these problems—guests make fresh coffee instantly, no cleanup required. Provide 20-30 pods per stay. Guests mention great coffee in reviews.
Include mix of family games (Monopoly, Scrabble), party games (Cards Against Humanity, Jenga), and kids options. Board games are low-cost, high-impact amenities that families specifically search for. Store in visible location with clear organization.
Create dedicated Netflix, Hulu, Disney+ accounts for your STR. Pre-login so guests can watch immediately. Use profile names like "Guest 1", "Guest 2" and clear watch history between stays.
Create one-page laminated guide: "How to Use TV", "How to Use Coffee Maker". Include photos and step-by-step instructions. Place next to each device. Reduces guest support requests by 80%.
Use label maker: "TV Remote", "Soundbar Remote". Attach Velcro to back of remotes and furniture so they can't get lost. Keep spare batteries in labeled drawer.
Take photo of complete game collection. Include in checkout instructions: "Please ensure all games are returned to shelf as shown in photo." Reduces missing pieces and replacement costs.
Provide variety pack (regular, decaf, flavored) in clear container. Include note: "Enjoy complimentary coffee! Need more? Extra pods available in pantry." Guests appreciate the hospitality and mention it in reviews.
