Wifi is one of the most sought after facilities by travelers according to Airbnb, so it would be a shame to miss out on reservations for lack of a missing internet connection, right? Indeed, the Internet has become an essential tool in the panoply of perfect short-term rentals and many travelers are looking for wifi for their vacation.
As announced, the Internet allows travelers to stay connected and to be able to continue their leisure or professional activities. By installing wifi in your vacation rental, you will be able to satisfy and target these three target groups:
Domestic travelers.
They will thus be able to save their data and will be able to research activities in the region to do or watch a movie on a streaming platform.
International travelers.
They will appreciate being able to connect to wifi in your vacation rental because very often they will not have internet on their phone. So they can organize their stay and their next visits as well as share photos and memories with their family or friends.
Teleworking professionals.
They have become more mobile and are looking for inspiring places with a stable and fast wifi connection to be able to telework in complete peace of mind. Airbnb has also launched a tool to test the speed of your internet connection, a decisive factor for digital nomads.
With OIQIA for example, you can create a digital welcome booklet to share all the essential information for your travelers to have a pleasant stay. But you can also share your own recommendations: walks, restaurants, shops, atypical experiences etc. By installing an internet connection, you will allow your travelers to easily consult your document via our OIQIA Traveler application.
If you want to modernize and make your vacation rental more “smart” with connected objects, then you will need internet.
The advantage of offering WI-FI in your home is that we can more easily install a smart lock for your home.
This is an essential prerequisite for setting up short-term rental management with the OIQIA digital concierge solution!
Today, new generations almost no longer watch classic channels, but are turning to movies, series or documentaries produced by audiovisual giants NETFLIX AND AMAZON.
We advise you to offer a recent TV capable of offering access to these subscriptions (travelers integrate their own access codes during their stays)
Or even better, subscribe to your own subscriptions, dedicated entirely to your short-term rental!
> Make a request for rental management in your city!
So, the numbers speak for themselves... Tourists want to stay connected during their stay and a simple small box will allow you to increase your rental income!
Sometimes it is even this Wi-Fi connection that will make the difference between your accommodation and a similar accommodation that does not offer Wi-fi to vacationers. Installing a Wi-fi connection is therefore an additional tip to boost your bookings.
