5 Spooktacular Tips to Keep Your Holiday Let Haunted by Visitors, Not Ghosts


As the autumn mist rolls in across the Isle of Wight and pumpkins begin to appear in windows, we at Silver Arch Holiday Let Solutions know that maintaining a successful holiday let requires more than just warding off unwanted spirits! Here are our top 5 tips to keep your property filled with happy guests rather than haunting ghouls.


1. Banish the Cobwebs (The Real Ones!)

While cobwebs might be perfect Halloween decorations, they're not so charming in your holiday let year-round. Regular deep cleaning is essential to keep your property looking pristine. Consider:

- Weekly cleaning between guests

- Quarterly deep cleans of soft furnishings

- Regular exterior maintenance to prevent actual spider habitats


2. Illuminate Dark Corners

Nothing says "haunted house" quite like poor lighting! Keep your property welcoming and bright by:

- Installing smart lighting systems for energy efficiency

- Ensuring all outdoor areas are well-lit for safety

- Adding ambient lighting options for cosy evenings

- Maintaining clear paths with solar-powered garden lights

Your guests should feel like they're in a warm, inviting space – not the Addams Family mansion!


3. Update Your Property's Life Force

Just as zombies need brains to stay "alive," your holiday let needs regular updates to stay competitive:

- Refresh décor every 2-3 years

- Keep technology current (fast WiFi is essential!)

- Maintain modern kitchen appliances

- Consider seasonal touches that can be easily changed

A well-maintained property attracts guests who'll return year after year.


4. Cast a Spell with Outstanding Photography

Don't let your property listing look like a ghost town! Capture its best features with:

- Professional photography that showcases your space

- Seasonal updates to your listing photos

- Virtual tours to give potential guests the full picture

- High-quality images of local attractions


5. Enchant Your Guests with Extra Touches

The devil is in the details, but so is success! Consider these additions:

- Welcome baskets with local Isle of Wight treats

- A comprehensive guest guide to local attractions

- Small seasonal decorations 

These thoughtful elements will have guests under your spell and booking return visits.


While Halloween might have us thinking about ghosts and ghouls, the real horror story would be an empty holiday let! By following these tips, you'll ensure your property remains a haven for happy holidaymakers rather than wandering spirits.
