How to Determine Your Property Type on Our Certification Platform

To accurately classify your vacation rental property for certification, it’s important to select the correct property type. Below are descriptions of each type to help you identify the category that best fits your property:

City Apartments:

• These are typically located in urban areas within residential or commercial buildings. City apartments are usually part of a larger complex or block, and they are designed for short or long-term stays in a busy, metropolitan environment.

Townhouses:

• Townhouses are multi-story homes, often attached to other similar houses in a row, commonly found in suburban or urban areas. They usually have their own entrance, but share walls with neighboring properties.

Country Homes:

• Country homes are standalone properties located in rural or countryside settings. These homes often provide large spaces and scenic views, offering guests a quiet and peaceful environment away from city life.

Cabins:

• Typically small, rustic homes made of wood, cabins are often found in remote or forested areas. They are designed to give guests a cozy, back-to-nature experience, perfect for outdoor activities like hiking or fishing.

Villas:

• Villas are large, luxurious standalone properties, usually found in upscale or resort-like settings. They often include private pools, gardens, and ample outdoor spaces, making them ideal for guests seeking a more exclusive vacation experience.

Beach Houses:

• Beach houses are properties located near or on the beach. These homes offer easy access to the shoreline and typically feature open layouts, outdoor decks, and large windows to take advantage of ocean views and breezes.

Ski Chalets:

• Ski chalets are homes designed specifically for winter sports enthusiasts, located in mountain or alpine areas. These properties usually feature rustic designs with easy access to ski slopes and may include amenities like fireplaces and ski storage.
