Property Description	Does it include plenty of information about your home's interior, setting & location? Did you mention some of your valuable amenities including any special entertainment packages like Netflix, Prime, Wii, etc.?
Nearest beach field	Do you provide both the name AND the actual distance (not the time it takes to get there)?
Photos	Do you have enough? Are they large? Good quality? Do they include the nearest beach?
Photo captions	Are they descriptive and informative to really market your home?
Guest reviews	Do you have at least one or two reviews from each year? Do you use the Guest Review Request Form to easily solicit reviews from your guests each booking?
