Travelers to Costa Rica who are weary of
using do-it-yourself websites to look for
vacation rentals can now reach out for help
with one toll free call or a direct email.
Costa Rica Bedfinder now offers one-stop
personal service for offline renters in
addition to offering over five hundred
vacation rentals with direct online inquiry
feature.
“In other words, we are acting as
traditional travel consultants except we are
not dealing with flights but lodging,” says
the website’s founder, Elaine Turner.
“When customers call or email us,” Elaine
says, “we communicate with them on a
personal level to ascertain their criteria,
not just their budget, needs and
preferences, but to understand also their
dreams and purpose for the vacation; the
greater our understanding the better we can
narrow down the choices and provide them
with a meaningful shortlist that matches
their expectation.”
Presently internet users looking to rent
Costa Rican properties have more than a
dozen popular self-help vacation rental
websites to choose from, the majority of
those require users to contact owners or
agents individually for each and every
property that interests them, and that often
means repeating the question-and-answer
process multiple times. Seasoned vacation
rental shoppers commonly use ‘copy and
paste’ to email to a multitude of property
owners.
The problem with this approach, according to
Elaine, is that the customers tend to lose
track when the responses stream in as to
which reply relates to which property; “I’m
sorry, I have sent out many queries, which
property is this referring to?” is often the
customer’s response to a property owner’s
reply.
“It is no wonder many are finding it easer
to let us take over the time-consuming
process of search and communicate, and have
all their questions answered through one
source,” she says.
With Costa Rica Bedfinder, customers who
inquire about multiple properties are
provided with answers and recommendations in
one consolidated email that enables them to
easily compare prices, features and
amenities, Elaine explains.
Since the launching of www.BedfinderCR.com
less than a year ago, a growing number of
vacationers are accessing its service
through toll free calls and emails rather
than using the direct online inquiry
feature, and Elaine attributes this increase
to more travelers recognizing the value of
service and convenience in the ‘one-stop’
approach.
Costa Rica Bedfinder currently markets
vacation rentals in popular destinations
such as Dominical, Manuel Antonio, Jaco
Beach, Los Suenos, Nosara, Tamarindo,
Flamingo and Reserva Conchal. |
