This means better reviews, and, hopefully, a busier year-round season.

What’s a deck without a great barbeque grill? Think of all the balmy summer nights that your guests will relish as they grill the evening away on the Char-Griller E3001 Grillin’ Pro gas grill. This grill not only offers you the sole ease of grilling up all kinds of meat easily, but it also looks pretty slick too.
This grill can meet your price point, and your guests will enjoy its quality, durability, convenience, and these great features:
The body of the grill is prone to rust. Make sure you purchase a grill cover and make it a requirement that your guests cover the grill after every use.

A fire feature on your deck will take your deck appeal to a hot new level. Consider buying the Outland Firebowl 893 Deluxe Outdoor Portable Propane Gas Fire Pit. With a centerpiece that encourages outdoor gathering year-round, you’ll be sure to highlight how versatile your Airbnb space is.
You won’t get the traditional crackling fire sound, nor will it give you a roaring fire, but this pit is enough to set the mood.

The fan only comes in one speed.

Bring the movie experience outside for your guests as a deck feature. This best-selling mini-projector is built to work great outdoors with a big or small projector screen.
Though this projector is affordable, it is not necessarily high-end. If you’re looking for something basic that appeals to your outdoor-loving guests, this should be just enough.

If your Airbnb allows outdoor parties or loud music, then give your guests the ability to turn it up! The Polk Audio outdoor speakers are great for all seasons and can withstand extreme temperatures. Mount the speakers on an outdoor wall or tuck them away in a corner so your guests can enjoy music while enjoying the outdoors.
Though the speakers promise powerful bass, they won’t provide a rumbling experience that can annoy neighbors. Most users rate the sound quality a 4/5 for its size.
Putting some money into your deck features is a great way to up your Airbnb game. You can quickly turn your home into a seasonal paradise with a fire pit, a rug, or maybe just a pair of speakers to encourage summertime fun.
