1. Fast, stable Wi-Fi
Today, it's an essential. Whether for telecommuting, video calling or streaming entertainment, a good Internet connection is a must. Install a high-performance router, test the speed and ensure good coverage throughout the cottage.
🔧 Lodixa tip: Mention the average speed in your ad. It's a plus for business travelers or extended stays.
2. An outdoor hot tub
It's a classic that's sure to win you over. A well-maintained spa, with a beautiful view or an intimate corner, greatly increases the perceived value of your accommodation.
What's more, this investment generally pays for itself within 12 to 18 months, thanks to the increased booking rate and the ability to charge a higher rate.
3. A well-equipped kitchen
Travelers love to cook on vacation, especially in a cottage. Offer them a complete kitchen with :
- Quality kitchen utensils
- Filter coffee maker and/or espresso machine
- Basic appliances: toaster, blender, oven, microwave, kettle.
- And essential products (oil, salt, sugar, flour, coffee...)
The result: a better experience and enthusiastic feedback.
4. An interactive digital welcome guide
Goodbye dusty filing cabinets! A digital guide, accessible via a link or QR code, allows you to :
- Give clear instructions (spa, heating, waste separation...)
- Recommend local activities
- Present your payments simply
- And keep it up to date much more easily.
Fewer recurring messages, more fluidity and professionalism.

5. Intelligent detectors (smoke, CO, noise)
Safety is paramount. Install connected sensors to :
- Monitor for smoke or carbon monoxide
- Prevent problem behavior (excessive noise)
- Reassure travelers of your reliability
Tip: Mentioning your safety equipment in your accommodation details increases tenant confidence.
