Podcast Every year brings new learning, and 2015 has been no different. Mike owns one property and I have two, along with the 190 managed by our PM company, so there’s always some issues we’ve not come across before. In this episode we talk about the year and share what surprised us, a few new trends, and the changes we’ll be making next year.

Julia Hill - December 23, 2015 Heather and Mike, Merry Christmas to you all! on the “faux” days and real day! Thanks for the 2015 recap. This is a great time of year to reflect on the successes and struggles of 2015. Thankfully the struggles were limited 🙂 We too have an extremely high rate of returning guests and it’s one of the things I continue to challenge myself with- adding and updating constantly. It’s the smallest things guests notice and acknowledge. Continually updating shows pride in ownership and also sends a clear message we invest in the business. This year we added : Green Egg Cooker Ipad Blu Tooth Speaker Netflix subscription Cuisinart Ice Cream Maker/ recipe book and supplies for no cook vanilla ice cream when children are visiting. 🙂 New cookware New bigger TV Biggest challenge: 1949 cast iron pipes on the beach 🙁 Excited for 2016 and carrying forward the momentum of Social Media initiatives, booking capabilities on our independent website, and providing Simply Outstanding Service to our guests. Wishing everyone a Merry Christmas and Happy New Year! Julia Leave a reply: Cancel Reply Name* Email* Website Save my name, email, and website in this browser for the next time I comment.
