Vacation Rental Decoration Ideas That Drive Bookings & Reviews

Thoughtful decor can do more than make your vacation rental look great — it can help you drive more bookings, earn better reviews, and encourage return stays. One of the most effective ways to elevate your property’s appeal is by adding a local touch that helps guests feel connected to their destination. YHM Designs’ home decor collection — featuring vintage baggage tag throw pillows, throw blankets, and prints — offers a simple way to create that “wow” moment guests will remember and mention in their reviews.

Best Practices for Decorating a Vacation Rental

Before diving into specific decor ideas, here are a few best practices every property owner should consider when designing a standout vacation rental:

  • Embrace local style: Guests choose vacation rentals over hotels for a more authentic, personal experience. Reflect the spirit of your destination with carefully chosen decor accents.
  • Prioritize comfort: Cozy textures, soft fabrics, and inviting spaces help guests feel at home and encourage positive feedback.
  • Use meaningful accents: Unique decor elements — like artwork and textiles — add personality and charm, helping your property stand out.
  • Create Instagram-worthy moments: Well-styled spaces inspire guests to share photos of their stay, generating valuable organic promotion for your property.
  • Design for reviews: Exceptional design details can turn a good stay into a memorable one. Guests often highlight thoughtful touches in their reviews — driving more bookings over time.

How YHM Designs Home Decor Enhances Your Vacation Rental

YHM Designs’ throw pillows, throw blankets, and prints are easy ways to add professional polish and local flair to your vacation rental, helping you create the kind of space guests rave about.

Celebrate the Destination with Vintage Baggage Tag Designs

Each YHM Designs piece features a vintage-inspired baggage tag design with the airport code of your choice. Highlighting your property’s nearest airport connects guests instantly to the location — whether it’s LAX for a breezy Los Angeles retreat, JFK for a stylish New York loft, or YYZ for a modern Toronto apartment.

Create a Sense of Place That Delights Guests

Decor that reflects the destination deepens guests’ connection to your rental. A throw pillow on the couch, a cozy blanket on the bed, or a framed airport code print on the wall makes your space feel purposeful and curated — enhancing the guest experience.

Add Comfort, Texture, and Visual Appeal

Our throw pillows and blankets are soft, durable, and easy to care for — ideal for high-traffic rental properties. They add warmth and texture to living areas and bedrooms alike. Prints make excellent focal points and can complement a wide range of interior styles, from modern to eclectic.

Customize Decor to Match Your Property

Each item is made to order, so you can tailor your space with unique pieces that reinforce your rental’s story and setting.
