Are you looking to furnish or update your new STR (Short Term Rental), Airbnb, or VRBO? Then, look no further. I have curated much of these items while on my lunch break. I get creative when I do a completely different task. Then, WHAM! An idea comes through! I have learned to write them do, email myself, or add it to my Amazon Shopping Cart. Otherwise, I will forget all about it 20 seconds later.
Please note: items are subject to change. While this is NOT a complete list of what I have at The Great Beach Escape, it is quite comprehensive. Please check back often as this list will have ongoing updates.

Fake Diamonds for Treasure Chest
Message in a bottle for Treasure Chest
Bedroom
Comforter- Order the next size up to cover mattress. White in the Primary bedroom screams clean.
Fish Quilt - Too cute not to have. Two please for the Queen beds!
Blue Blanket or Blue Throw - Small blankets are always a hit. Have you seen the knot on YT?
Bamboo Sheets - Over 160,000 reviews. 4.5 stars
Mattress Protectors – Shhhhh . . . it’s quiet . . .
Box Spring Covers - I am liking these way more than the ruffled version. Plus, it's easy to check under the beds before guests depart.
Valances - I needed to order two for my secondary bedroom window. The color was off when I ordered the second one.
Hide TV Cords Cover - Makes the bedroom look more streamlined.
Bed Scarf - Great way to spiff up a room without spending lots of money.
Blue Octopus Wool Rug – I have found that wool rugs are the way to go. You will spend a little more in the beginning, but a wool rug will last much longer than other rugs.
7-Port USB Data Hub Splitter - This is a much with up to four guests in one room.
Two Spa Robes for Primary Bedroom - A great amenity
Office
Keyboard & Mouse (Wireless) - Ordered 20+ of this keyboard and mouse combo while working in an office and setting up new workstations. I use this in my home office as well.
Bathroom
Wall Mount Hair Dryer - An absolute must! My regular blow dryer kept walking off.
Black Makeup Remover Washcloths - Great option for us gals!
Striped Shower Curtain - Make the shower rod touch the sky. Well, at least to the ceiling.
Toilet Boil Cleaner & Plunger Set Stainless Steel
Bathroom Towels - I no longer provide beach towels as those kept walking off.
Shower Head - These were replaced not too long ago.
Kitchen
Individually Wrapped Mini Sponges - 40 ct.
15-Piece Knife Set w/Wooden Block
Bissell Crosswave Pet Pro All in One Wet Dry Vacuum Cleaner and Mop for Hard Floors and Area Rugs - Fantastic piece of machinery!
Liquid Soap Dispenser Option #1 or Option #2
Electric Kettle - For our tea drinkers
3 Piece Glass Canister Set - Airtight
Brita Water Pitcher - Instead of water bottles
First Aid Kit - Zip tie the clips so you know when items need to be replenished.
Fire Extinguisher - Florida law. Ours is located under the kitchen sink.
Spices
Non-stick Spray

Bar Stools - four, please!
Entry Way
Rug - Runner
Laundry Room

Other
A/C Filter - Change them monthly. We are dusty in Florida and Texas.
Peppermint Oil - A couple of drops on the a/c filter makes it smell clean.
Magnetic Ties - Unlike zip ties, these can be re-used.
Guest Book - Online reviews are great, but guests enjoy writing in your guest book too.
Book: Sea Glass - Books make me happy. I love the kindle, but my books will always be cherished.
Book: Beach House Happy
Book: Art
Book: Capri Dolce Vita - Pretty pictures and the binding is great as well.
Book: Reef - I read somewhere that you should always place something red in the primary bedroom. (A book, or even a red pillow will work.)
Life Preserves - A fun way to brand your beach house, lake house, or any house.
Owner’s Closet
Instead of shoes, I put screws, batteries, etc. in this clear Over The Door Hanging Shoe Organizer.
Door Stoppers - At the beach, mine had all rusted out. Such a small thing, that makes The Great Beach Escape look fresh and clean.
Decorator Wallplate - White Plug Cover - mine were outdated. These were easy to install. No electrician required. These were a game changer!
Tool Set - Always keep one on hand. We have a full-time maintenance staff, but it's great to have a hammer at 10 o'clock at night when trying to get things done.
Games
Plan to replace board games on a yearly basis. It's the cost of doing business. Here are some that we recommend:
Ping Pong Set - Great option on a rainy day
Outdoors
Solar Powered Outdoor String Lights
Bar Height Table & Chairs - https://amzn.to/3PLxW0P and https://amzn.to/3cbJXOq
