How to Turn Your Property Into a Successful Short-Term Rental - Far & Beyond

7 Practical Tips

The short-term rental market in Greece continues to grow, but competition is becoming increasingly demanding. For a property to stand out, it needs proper preparation, professional presentation, and excellent service.

We have gathered 7 practical tips that can transform your property and increase bookings from the very first season.

  1. Invest in functional upgradesSmall improvements such as fresh paint, smart lighting, and replacing old furniture can significantly increase your property’s value. Guests appreciate a space that looks clean, well-maintained, and modern.
  2. Professional photography
    Photos are the first and most crucial point of contact with potential guests. The right angle, natural light, and clean aesthetic directly boost bookings.
  3. Equip the space with essential “must-haves”
    High-speed Wi-Fi, a comfortable mattress, a fully equipped kitchen, and storage space are now considered standard expectations.
  4. Optimized pricing
    The right price is not fixed. It changes depending on demand, seasonality, and local events. Dynamic pricing is essential for maximum revenue.
  5. Professional cleaning & maintenance
    Cleanliness is perhaps the most important factor for good reviews. A consistent, organized cleaning system ensures reliability—something guests frequently mention in their feedback.
  6. Create clear procedures for guests
    A clear check-in guide, transparent house rules, and prompt communication before and during the stay.
    Guests feel safe and well-taken-care-of when they know what to expect, which increases satisfaction and positive reviews.
  7. Work with a professional management company
    Professional management can double a property’s performance through optimized pricing, strong online presence, and excellent guest service.
