These special touches can be the deciding factor between your home and the next.
When searching for a vacation home to rent, properties tend to run together and it's hard to distinguish one beachfront condo from the next. Make your property stand out by including fun and unique amenities.
Here are just a few fun amenities you might consider:
1) A ping pong table. Great for basements, garages, and screened-in porches. Ping pong tables are cheaper than their billiard counterparts ($100-$300 vs. $300+) and have fewer pieces for your guests to lose.
2) A soft serve ice cream maker. Ideal for summer destinations.
3) An espresso machine. Coffee connoisseurs will love having a tasty cup in the morning without having to leave the house.
4) A horseshoe set. Inexpensive to buy and easy to set up.
5) Terrycloth bathrobes. Make your guests feel like they're staying at the Ritz.
6) A Belgian waffle maker. Guests love playing with kitchen gadgets that they don't have at home.
7) A Bocce Ball set. An easy game that your guests can play in the yard or at the beach.
8) A margarita machine. Get one of these for your beach property and watch the inquiries roll in.
9) A karaoke machine. Kids and adults alike enjoy channeling their inner Cher.
10) A dart board. Looking for an amenity to add to your 400 sq. ft. studio home? All you need to set up a dart board is a little bit of wall space.

Personal Note: Get a magnetic or electronic Dartboard, do not get one that uses steel tipped darts, teenagers and kids will use them and create holes around your dartboards from missed shots. Trust me. I had a dartboard that used steel tipped darts and there were numerous holes in the drywall around the dartboard. If are going to get a dartboard with steel tipped darts, I recommend putting cardboard around the dartboard to protect the drywall.
