Recently, Airbnb released information to their hosts and renters highlighting exactly what folks are looking for in a short-term vacation rental.

According to a consumer survey, an overwhelming 97 percent of domestic (US) travelers say amenities impact their travel experience and while accommodations have the highest impact on the quality of their vacation quality, folks responded that amenities, like pools and hot tubs, come in second for travelers, ranked ahead of shopping/dining, location, culture, and family/friends. The majority of respondents surveyed rated pools a top amenity.
