B&B Guests: Special Occasions

Perhaps your bed and breakfast guests are celebrating a special occasion, such as a wedding, honeymoon, anniversary, birthday, or reunion.  When you communicate with them, be sure to find out if they are coming for a memorable reason.

You may offer a special package for honeymooners or people celebrating their birthday or anniversary. Depending upon the size of your bed and breakfast and the number of relatives, you could offer a deal to a family if they book all of your rooms.

Make mutually beneficial agreements with local florists, musicians, and other business people offering complementary services. You can refer each other to more business.  Just as important, your guests will enjoy their stay so much that not only will they return again, they will also refer your bed and breakfast to other potential guests.

Send Out of Town Guests to Your Local B&B

Bed and breakfast owners, you can put on your website the question, “Are you overwhelmed because all of your out-of-town relatives want to stay at your house this year?  Then have your family members stay at our B&B.”

  • Perhaps those entertaining guests cannot comfortably house all of their guests overnight or the task is too overwhelming
  • This easy solution puts less stress on the host family to cook and clean for visiting family
  • This gives the visiting guests a chance to stay somewhere new and visit their relatives at the same time without feeling like a burden
  • The relatives staying at your bed and breakfast can experience the beauty of B&B vacations

There is no reason for those entertaining family to pull their hair out this holiday season.  They can refer their family to stay at your bed and breakfast.  Everyone wins–those entertaining family, those visiting family, and the B&B owners who book more rooms!
