Fiber Internet for Orlando Vacation Rentals
Fast Internet for Short-Term Rentals: A Guide for Orlando Hosts and Guests
Orlando is one of the most popular tourist destinations in the world, attracting more than 74 million visitors a year. While most visitors come from within the United States, more than 6 million come from Europe, Asia, and South America.
For Orlandoans, entertaining these visitors is second nature—many locals work in the hospitality industry as hoteliers, restaurateurs, tour guides, and theme park workers. Many local property owners also rent condos, houses, and townhomes to visitors via Airbnb and VRBO. With such a competitive market, being a successful rental property manager requires attention to detail, world-class amenities, and responsive customer service.
When booking a place to stay, travelers look for amenities like laundry, parking, air conditioning, and WiFi. Travelers consider fast and reliable internet a must-have. Nearly seven out of eight travelers (87%) are less likely to book a place if vacation home internet options are lacking. Guests could be discouraged from booking your property if travelers call out spotty and slow service in reviews. Make sure you have the vacation home WiFi options that lead to high guest satisfaction.
Quantum Fiber is available throughout Orlando and delivers lightning-fast speed, reliability, and bandwidth to handle a variety of online activities, from work meetings to 4K streaming.
Choosing internet for your vacation home in Orlando
The first step to finding the right internet for your vacation home is checking Quantum Fiber availability at your rental address. Quantum Fiber provides ultra-fast fiber internet in Orlando. If your neighborhood is part of our multi-gig coverage area, your guests will benefit from speeds up to 8 Gig. For those guests who are working from the road or using multiple devices to stream movies and play games, you’ll be set up for success with Quantum Fiber high-speed internet.
Quantum Fiber also has flexible terms for you with no annual contract and unlimited data plans. No matter how many games and movies your guests stream, you’ll pay the same monthly rate. And without an annual contract, you’re free to cancel and resume service, providing temporary internet service for your vacation home when you need it.
Setting up your Airbnb guest WiFi
Help ensure your guests have a positive travel experience by providing high-speed internet in your Airbnb. You’ll want a reliable fiber or broadband connection with download speeds fast enough for video calls and streaming. Most travelers bring multiple devices on vacation with them, which they use for both work and entertainment when they’re not taking in Orlando’s best attractions.
To set up your WiFi, you’ll need a quality router that can handle the demands of multiple users. Dual-band support and strong security protocols are important features to consider. For the best WiFi signal distribution, place your router in the highest, most central spot. Avoid installing the router near thick walls, appliances, or metal objects to minimize interference and help eliminate dead spots.
Bonus tip: Label your router and install it where guests won’t accidentally disconnect it. Be sure to include instructions and passwords in your guest welcome packet.
Secure your WiFi for cyber safety
Your guests will want to know that the Airbnb WiFi is safe to use and won’t expose them to security risks. For a secure network, use an upgraded router with features like WPA3 encryption and built-in firewalls. You’ll also want to set up a dedicated guest network with a simple name and a secure password.
For added protection, a guest Virtual Private Network (VPN) can help protect your visitors’ sensitive information by keeping outsiders from accessing the network. This layer provides a higher level of protection that will put your guests at ease.
Bonus tip: Disable guest network access to router settings. This will prevent guests from being able to change your settings and passwords.
Set up an office for remote work
The flexibility to work from anywhere has changed vacation travel. Remote workers value a well-appointed workspace in a quiet location. It’s a key amenity that, combined with fast internet, can make your Orlando vacation rental more desirable for a variety of travelers.
An ideal workspace should include a desk and comfortable chair, an adjustable desk lamp, electrical outlets, power strips, and USB ports. It should also be located away from the main living space to provide a quiet spot away from other guests.
Bonus tip: Promote your property as being remote-worker friendly by including pictures of the office and describing amenities and features.
Know how to access your WiFi service remotely
If your guests encounter an issue with WiFi, knowing how to access the property’s router remotely will save you a major headache. Most routers have built-in remote management capabilities that you can access via an internet connection. Make sure you have the information you need to log in remotely to troubleshoot connectivity issues should there be a problem. Your guests will appreciate a fast, capable response, resulting in better reviews and future bookings.
Set up your smart home
A fiber internet connection lets you connect multiple smart devices from security cameras and thermostats to locks and lights. Guests will appreciate the added security and safety, and you’ll be able to streamline property management.
- Smart locks: Your guests get convenient keyless entry and you get remote access in case of an emergency.
- Security cameras: While guests don’t want to be monitored inside the home, many will appreciate security cameras and video doorbells monitoring the exterior of the home. A fiber internet connection will provide the bandwidth you need for high-resolution coverage with virtually no lag.
- Smart thermostats: In the hot Orlando summer, you’ll want to be able to monitor the thermostat in case of a problem with your HVAC system. Smart thermostats can also save you money by optimizing the indoor climate.
Boost your Orlando bookings
Connecting with Orlando visitors can be difficult when you’re competing with thousands of other short-term rentals. Make sure your property stands out by writing a compelling description that highlights your property’s best features and amenities.
Start with the basics like location and number of rooms and bathrooms. Then detail the amenities. Make sure to list swimming pool, washer and dryer, and the number and type of television screens. If you have features that appeal to remote workers, like fiber internet and an office space, highlight them prominently.
For most travelers, fast WiFi is essential to their travel experience. If you have a fiber internet connection at multi-gig speeds, that’s an amenity worth underlining. Lightning-fast WiFi is so important to travelers that Airbnb recommends their hosts take an internet speed test to check their download and upload speeds.
If your customers tend to be remote workers, highlight your video call-friendly setup. For large groups and families, assure them they can connect multiple devices simultaneously without losing their internet connection.
