LYWALT Solar Outdoor Motion-Sensor Lights
These go along the walkway and near the lockbox so late arrivals can actually see the steps and the keypad. Solar means no wiring and no one has to remember to switch them on.

These go along the walkway and near the lockbox so late arrivals can actually see the steps and the keypad. Solar means no wiring and no one has to remember to switch them on.
We line the walkway and driveway with these so a guest arriving after dark can find the door and the lockbox without calling us. There is no wiring to run, and a ten-pack means a broken light gets swapped instead of leaving a dark gap.
One of these in the kitchen or laundry area covers the scrapes and small burns guests would otherwise message about late at night. It restocks quickly, so put it on the turnover checklist and it is never picked clean when the next guest needs it.
The two grill grates make this a cooking setup and not just a fire, which is the kind of thing that photographs well and shows up in the amenity filters guests search. Spell out your fire rules in the house guide and keep it clear of anything with a roof.
A 20 inch foam ring with 98.4 feet of floating rope attached. We hang one at every home with water so guests see it on the way out back, and the rope is long enough to reach from a deck or a dock.
We line the driveway and side path so a late arrival can find the door and the steps without a phone flashlight. Nothing to wire, no switch to explain in the house guide, and no call at 11pm about a dark walkway.
This lives in the owner closet and holds spare keys, documents, and anything that should not sit out between stays. It is big enough that a cleaner can lock up a laptop or camera a guest left behind until we sort out the return.
Each unit holds 2.5 pounds of dry chemical and is rated 1-A:10-B:C for small common household fires. A two pack means one of our houses gets two units instead of one, and with seven homes we are ordering in multiples anyway.
This one is 150 pieces in a small red hard shell case that keeps water out. The sealed case is why we keep one outside by the fire pit and one in the car, instead of in a cabinet indoors.
If buying, installing and reordering all of this sounds like a lot, that is the part we take off your hands.
