12 Sep Holiday rental management: new technologies to promote your home

Our years of experience in holiday rental management have taught us a very important lesson. In this sector, not only must you attend to every detail and offer the best care and services to customers, but also be at the forefront of everything. Thanks to this philosophy, we are on top of all new developments in design, services, furniture, and customer service, and, of course, marketing. When it comes to promoting our Barcelona tourism apartments and all their virtues, we always opt to use the most innovative strategies and tools. One of the most powerful is 3D virtual tours.

3D tours show all the details

At Lodging we offer 3D virtual tours because they are a tremendously useful tool for both owners and guests. When it comes to holiday rental management, visualizing your potential space is essential. How many reviews have we read on the Web from guests disappointed in accommodations that looked nothing like the images they saw in the advertisements? These issues are avoided with virtual tours, because guests can enter each room, getting a realistic idea of the space. They can see every corner, find out the exact square meters, stop on details that catch their attention, and even calculate distances in the editing mode. At Lodging, we also like to include tours of the areas surrounding our apartments so potential guests can become familiar with the nearby streets, and get an idea of the atmosphere in the neighborhood.

Matterport: top of the line

When we decided to launch this 3D tours service, there were many options available, but it became clear that not all were of the same quality. We didn’t want to use half-measures on our website, or offer tours with low resolution or that would take forever to load. That’s why after extensive research and analysis, we came to the conclusion that the Matterport digital platform was the best at reproducing the feeling of really walking through an apartments, and made it our choice for our clients.

The Matterport system creates a real digital copy of spaces because it is not just a render. Through artificial intelligence techniques, it creates precise 3D models that translate into a totally immersive and interactive experience. These are not photos or panoramic images. Our virtual tours are created from software that connects physical spaces and makes them digital, offering an amazingly realistic experience.

Lodging continues to advance every day with this tool and others, always going a step further in our goal of being a benchmark of the avant-garde for our guests and owners. One more step towards optimal communication, attention and good service; one more step towards the best holiday rental management in Barcelona.
