Amenities help guests find the right property by filtering for features they want, such as pet-friendly stays, wheelchair access, or a hot tub.
They’re also used in full-content integrations with some third-party channels like Airbnb, Booking.com & Vrbo.
- Start with the basics first – Make sure you’ve ticked all standard amenities like Wi-Fi, parking, heating, and air conditioning. In particular pay attention to Guest safety like Smoke Alarm, Fire Extinguisher and Carbon Monoxide alarm. These are what most guests search for.
- Highlight unique perks – Anything that sets your property apart—hot tub, pool, workspace, pet-friendly—should be listed. It helps your listing stand out on both platforms.
- If you do not integrate with any channels using a full content integration, we would recommend to only use this functionality for non-API users with a large number properties.
- If you only have a few properties, it may work better to simply highlight key features directly on your website instead.
1. Go to Properties > Edit, choose Amenities from the settings dropdown, and click Go.
2. Check all amenities that apply, and if you want them on multiple properties, tick Copy to all properties before clicking Save.
3. After that, you can go back and customize each property with any unique amenities.
1. Go to Properties > Amenities > Add/edit amenity categories. You will see here a list of pre-populated Amenity categories ready there, if you need any additional ones as you continue to set up, you can add them in this section.
2. After adding categories, go to Properties > Amenities > Add/Edit. Name each amenity, assign it to a category, click Add New, and repeat for all amenities.
You don’t have to create amenity categories, but they can help you stay organized if you have a lot.
Categories are also needed if you want to add the same amenity to multiple properties at once, instead of doing it one by one.
1. Go to Properties > Edit > select Amenities to the right of the property > Go.
2. Untick the amenities that may no longer apply and tick any new ones.
Once finished, click Save.
For API users:
You can update amenities on your website by adding images or icons. There is also content within this page that your web developer can complete. It is possible to use amenities to pull through property facility options on to the property pages of your website.
