The ‘Secret Sauce’ in Luxury Rentals: Advice to Homeowners in Marbella

At Swish, we don’t just offer luxury rentals; we provide our guests with an opportunity to immerse themselves in an unparalleled experience, one where waking up in paradise is just the beginning. We understand that luxury isn’t just about extravagant amenities; it’s about crafting a lifestyle, a feeling of well-being that resonates with every moment of your stay.

If you are a homeowner looking to rent out your property in Marbella, why not follow our tips? Read on to discover how to create that magical feeling and make a profitable rental business.

Mood is Everything:  Your Rental Needs to Convey Serenity, Coupled with Comfort

Marbella’s lively ambience needs some balance, so create a peaceful sanctuary of seclusion for guests in their home-from-home. Create a noise-insulated haven, where they can forget about the busy world outside. Make sure bedrooms are furnished with soft and calming colours, bathrooms are large and inviting, and you set the scene with finishing touches like plush towels.

Next Level Pampering: Spa Facilities and Beautiful Bathrooms Create the Perfect Indulgence

Guests want to picture themselves unwinding in a private spa, possibly where skilled therapists can be sent to pamper them or at least where they will find some respite from the outside world.

Consider building a sauna, steam room or spa into your rental villa in Marbella to add value to the property, but more importantly, add value to your guests’ stay!

Practicalities First: Is There Room for the Cars? Is there Device Connectivity?

Guests may be able to picture themselves lounging by a pool but if there is no room for their supercar, or the bedrooms are cramped and awkward, that luxury lifestyle dream will be shattered. Practicalities are so important, and in fact, more and more guests are asking for smart homes and device connectivity as standard.

Guests want to effortlessly dim the lights, adjust the room temperature, and play their favourite music.  It’s not just about convenience; it’s about creating that magic feeling of “anything is possible!”  You, as a homeowner, can set the stage for your guests’ perfect, dream-like adventure by making your home as “smart” as possible, in all senses of the word.

A Kitchen that Sells a Dream

One word: Indulgence: That is what luxury is all about.
The perfect kitchen in a luxury rental may hardly be used, but that is not the point: You need to allow guests to dream: To have the opportunity to picture themselves waking up every morning and baking their own sourdough bread in the top-of-the-line, state of the art oven.  You need to let them imagine the smell of the coffee from the designer coffee machine before they even arrive. A good kitchen is really the heart of any home, and in luxury rentals, it’s still a focal point. This is the part of the house where guests congregate, where stories are shared and where memories are made. Don’t scrimp on the fixtures and fittings. Does your kitchen look the part?

Games with Light

Guests come to Marbella in part for the climate. As a homeowner, it’s important to use the light in sunny Marbella to its advantage. Choose interior designs and architecture that showcase the sun at its best, with solariums and well-designed spaces in the shade too.

Guests may wish to host elegant gatherings in vast living areas that seamlessly blend indoor and outdoor spaces. Does your villa give that breezy- indoor to outdoor feeling?
