How to Make Your Krk Accommodation Attractive to Pet Lovers?

At Sol Tours, we work daily with property owners who have recognized the potential of this niche — and are reporting excellent results! Below, we bring you concrete tips on how to make your accommodation attractive to pet lovers.



🏡 1. Clearly State That You Are "Pet-Friendly"


The first step is simple – emphasize in your listing that pets are welcome. Use phrases like:

  • “Pet-friendly apartment”

  • “Pets welcome”

  • “Accommodation with a fenced yard”

💡 Sol Tours Tip: Highlight this information in the listing title or the first few sentences of the description – this will automatically set you apart on platforms like Booking.com and Airbnb.



🐕 2. Ensure a Safe and Practical Space


Pet owners look for a quiet and safe environment. If possible, ensure:

  • a fenced yard or terrace,

  • bowls for food and water,

  • Even if you don't have a large yard, you can add a pet-friendly corner with a cushion or blanket for dogs – a detail that guests highly appreciate.

💬 Sol Tours Tip: If there is a park, promenade, or beach nearby that allows dogs, be sure to mention it in the description and add a few photos.




🧼 3. Maintenance and Cleanliness are Key


One of the most common concerns regarding pet-friendly accommodation is cleanliness. That's why it is important to have:

  • easily washable floor coverings (tiles, vinyl),

  • washable covers on furniture,

  • a vacuum cleaner for hair and disinfectants available to guests.

💡 Sol Tours Tip: Include in the listing description that you pay special attention to hygiene and regular cleaning after every stay, so that future guests also feel comfortable and carefree.



🐾 4. Offer Small Amenities for Pets


A small token of attention often makes a big difference. Consider offering:

  • a welcome treat for the dog – a small bowl, a biscuit, or a toy,

  • a towel for dogs if they return from the beach,

  • information about the nearest veterinarian, groomer, and pet shop.

💬 Sol Tours Tip: Photograph these details and include them in the listing – guests traveling with pets will notice that you have made an extra effort, and this often decides between your accommodation and another.



🌊 5. Highlight Pet-Friendly Locations Nearby


Krk has an increasing number of beaches and promenades that are dog-friendly. Guests will appreciate finding a list of these places and useful instructions in their accommodation.

💡 Sol Tours Tip: Create a small informational map or brochure "Krk for Pets" – this is added value that shows guests you understand their needs.



💰 6. Charge a Reasonable Pet Fee


If you feel that extra cleaning requires more time, you can introduce a small pet fee – but be careful to keep it within reasonable limits (5–15 € per day). Transparency is important: always state all costs in advance.

💬 Sol Tours Tip: Our experience shows that guests are willing to pay more for accommodation that is adapted for pets, but they are not happy when the price is excessive.



✅ Conclusion


Investing in pet-friendly accommodation on Krk brings a concrete competitive advantage. More and more guests are looking for exactly these types of properties, and with a few simple adjustments, you can increase the number of bookings, guest satisfaction, and positive reviews.
