Why It’s Best to Wait Before Parking at Your Vacation Rental

We’re just as excited as you are for your vacation to begin! But before you head straight to your rental, we kindly ask that you wait until your designated check-in time to park at the house. This little bit of patience goes a long way in ensuring your home is perfectly ready for you.

Why Waiting Helps Everyone

Parking at the house before check-in can cause a few hiccups:

  1. Giving Our Cleaners the Space They Need: When cars are parked in the driveway early, it can make it tough for our cleaners to do their job efficiently. This might delay their work or cause them to miss important tasks, and we want your place to be spotless when you arrive.
  2. Keeping Your Belongings Safe: If you bring your things into the home before it’s ready, there’s a chance they could get in the way of the cleaning process. We’d hate for anything to get misplaced or damaged before your stay even begins.
  3. Avoiding Awkward Moments: Showing up before the cleaners are done can create a bit of an uncomfortable situation for everyone. They’re focused on getting everything perfect for you, and having guests around can make things a little tricky.
By giving our cleaning team the time they need, you’re helping ensure that your vacation home is in tip-top shape for your arrival.
