Family friendly checklist

Alongside the essential items required to make your property comfortable, and well equipped, these items will make it more appealing to the family market.

Kitchen, lounge and dining

Set the stage for cozy, fun times together with well-appointed living areas that invite guests to make themselves at home. For families, this means having enough seating for everyone at the table — and ensuring that the children are taken care of too! So don’t forget the toddler, baby and pet essentials. 

  • Child-friendly utensils
  • Child-friendly plates and bowls (two sets/guest)
  • High chair
  • Travel cot
  • Push chair, Baby gate(s)
  • Water and food bowls for pets, Pet crate(s)

Bathroom

Make sure that your bathrooms are especially well stocked for families. Between everyone’s morning and evening routines, families can go through a lot of towels! So the more extras you provide, the better. Also, including child-specific accessories, such as a baby bath, is a great way to bring a smile to both children’s and parents’ faces. 

  • Extra bath towels (two/guest)
  • Extra hand towels (two/guest)
  • Toilet roll (two–four rolls/bathroom)
  • Baby bath
  • Children’s dressing gowns

Bedrooms

Help tired parents to get some rest with comfortable beds, luxurious linens and cozy bedding. Fun children’s beds are a great idea too. A racing car bed or Batman-themed children’s sheets might be just the thing to ensure that children finally spend their whole night in their own beds instead of waking up Mum and Dad!

  • Full-size cot
  • Child-size bed
