It is no secret that the majority of our renters are single families who are exploring the area for a brand new vacation memory. By reserving a vacation rental, they can save on the cost of multiple hotel rooms while providing their family with various amenities to enjoy. The best way to ensure your vacation rental is set up for success is by having it offer features that appeal to our family demographics. What that entails depends on the setup of your vacation property. Here are some must have features for any Arizona family-friendly vacation rental in our portfolio:

Children’s Bedrooms

Most of the rooms in vacation rentals will be geared towards adults with queen- or king-size beds. However, at least one of the bedrooms should be designed for children. Staying in a brand-new home can be nerve-wracking for young children, but by offering them a comfortable space, they will ease into their new setting.

Children’s bedrooms can be designed with quite a few things in mind. First, having beds that are appropriately sized for children is ideal. This means beds that are twin or full size will be the perfect fit. Ask any kid if they love bunk beds, and they are sure to say yes! Add a bunk bed to the bedroom to offer even more appeal for them. Colorful linens will add the perfect touch too.

Kids will need plenty of time to unwind while they are getting ready for bed or enjoying time off during the day. Play areas in the bedrooms will go the distance. Make sure to include play areas that can adapt to a variety of ages so the kids can enjoy time in the room. Creative play including blocks and other objects that can be assembled are always a hit. Young children will do well with pretend play scenarios such as play kitchens.

Kids of any age will always appreciate having a Smart TV in the bedroom too. Having a TV will enable the little ones to wind down with their favorite movie or show as the lay down in bed. Most properties feature Smart TVs with complimentary Wi-Fi so guests can always log into their favorite streaming apps during a stay.

Feature a Game Room

Nothing says excitement quite like including a game room right in your vacation rental. Kids will love the opportunity to play their favorite board or card game in a room designated for all kinds of fun. Many of our more popular rentals feature a game room. In addition to board and card games, they can also feature video games on the most popular gaming systems. Additional options also include billiards, shuffleboard, ping pong, and more. You can make it a mini arcade with an arcade set up or two. Those with older kids in their family may even appreciate a card table to play a family friendly competition of cards or dominoes one night. The options are nearly endless with a game room!

Sprawling Backyard with Amenities

Arizona features sunny weather all year round, so take advantage of comfortable temperatures outside of the summer months and let your guests get outdoors. If you have a vacation rental with a sprawling backyard, you will be pleasantly surprised by the reviews you will receive from families with kids. Many properties all around Scottsdale and Northern Arizona include spacious patio decks in their backyards. If you have an area to lounge in the sun, you are doing it right. Of course, no backyard is complete without a gas BBQ grill to cook up the perfect burgers and steaks. While mom or dad is behind the grill, the kids can play on an outdoor playset or run around a grassy green lawn; the more the kids get out their energy, the easier it will be to get them to sit down to eat!

Arizona is known to get hot especially in the summer, so why not put a pool in the backyard? Having a pool is an instant draw for anyone looking to book a vacation rental here in Arizona. Pools have multiple options such as having a shaded cover or offering a heated option so it can be enjoyed during the winter. Kids love a good pool, and so will everyone else in the family!
