Everything you need to feel at home — even on night one
Booking a vacation rental for the first time? You’re in for a refreshing change — more space, privacy, flexibility, and that cozy home-away-from-home feeling.
Still, your first night in a rental might feel a little unfamiliar if you’re used to hotels. Here’s what to expect — and how to make the most of it — so you can settle in smoothly and start your trip right.
1. A Seamless Arrival (With Zero Lobby Lines)
Most vacation rentals offer contactless check-in, which means:
-
You’ll receive access info (like a key code) in advance
-
You can arrive on your own schedule — no front desk, no waiting
-
Instructions are clear, and help is just a message away if you need anything
Ero Rentals Tip: We send your check-in instructions, local tips, and emergency contact info ahead of time so you're fully prepared.
2. A Space That’s Ready for You — Not Just Clean, But Comfortable
Expect a fully prepared home that’s been professionally cleaned and stocked before your arrival, including:
-
Fresh linens and towels
-
Cleaned and sanitized kitchen and bathrooms
-
Basic essentials like toilet paper, soap, paper towels, and dishwashing supplies
-
Climate control set to a comfortable level
You might even find thoughtful extras like a welcome note or local snacks.
3. That “Where’s the Light Switch?” Moment
Your first 10 minutes might feel like a light scavenger hunt — just like when you stay at a friend’s house.
-
Explore and familiarize yourself with the space
-
Check for labeled Wi-Fi info, remotes, and light switches
-
Look for the thermostat, trash bins, and kitchen gear
-
Review any printed or digital welcome materials provided
Tip: Take a few minutes to unpack and settle in — it makes the space feel like yours instantly.
4. Your Own Kitchen, Your Own Rules
One of the biggest perks of a vacation rental is the full kitchen. Your first night is a great time to:
-
Cook a simple meal
-
Reheat leftovers from dinner out
-
Stock up on breakfast items or snacks for the next day
-
Enjoy wine or drinks in a relaxed setting — no dress code, no bar tab
Ero Rentals kitchens come fully equipped with cookware, utensils, and dinnerware, so you can enjoy real meals right away.
5. A Homey Vibe (Not a Hotel Feel)
Unlike hotels, vacation rentals are designed to feel like a home — so expect:
-
Unique decor and local character
-
Softer lighting and cozier seating
-
More quiet and privacy
-
A space where you can truly unwind — not just pass through
That means no noisy hallways, no surprise wake-up knocks from housekeeping, and no sharing amenities with strangers.
6. Peace of Mind with 24/7 Support (If You Need It)
At Ero Rentals, we’re just a text or call away if you:
-
Can’t find something
-
Have a question about the area
-
Experience a maintenance issue
-
Need a recommendation or special request
We want you to feel at home — and that includes knowing help is available if needed.

Your first night in a vacation rental might feel a little different from a hotel — and that’s a good thing. You get more comfort, more freedom, and a space that actually works for how you travel.
