Things You Need to Know Before Renting Your Apartment Daily in Antalya

You have an apartment in Antalya and “Should I rent it out daily / for a short term?” you are wondering…

This idea can be very profitable if managed correctly.
But there are some critical points you need to know before you start.

In this article, we explain step by step what you need to consider before renting out your apartment in Antalya for a short term.

1. Location and Building Structure: Not Every Apartment is Suitable for Daily Rental

Not every district and building in Antalya has the same potential for daily rentals.

Things to pay attention to:

• Region:
  Lara – Kundu – Konyaaltı – city center – points close to tourist attractions,
  these are areas with higher demand and occupancy.

• Transportation:
  Proximity to public transport, main roads, beaches, shopping malls, and restaurants is a great advantage for guests.

• Building entrance & environment:
  Dark, unkempt, and unsafe-feeling building entrances;
  no matter how nice the apartment is, they negatively affect guest reviews.

Homeyday evaluates location and building potential together during the discovery phase and provides a realistic overview.

2. Legal Status and KBS: Just Saying “I Only Opened a Listing on Airbnb” is Not Enough

When renting out daily:

• KBS (Identification Notification System),

• Accommodation regulations,

• Municipal and tax obligations
  topics cannot be ignored.

Things to pay attention to:

• In every case where you are carrying out accommodation activities,
  it is mandatory to report guest identification/passport information to KBS.

• Having your listing on platforms (Airbnb, Booking, etc.)
  does not exempt you from legal liability.

• In the long run:

  • “I won't deal with it, I won't get an ID, I won't do KBS” can
    lead to serious penalties and risks.

Homeyday makes it a principle to manage the KBS process and guest information in a professional manner and according to procedures.

3. Site / Apartment Rules: Moving Forward Without Facing Your Neighbors

While some sites in Antalya do not look favorably upon daily rentals, some may be accustomed and supportive of it.

Things to pay attention to:

• Consult with your manager or the site management plan:

  • Find out if daily rentals are allowed,

  • If the security and reception are prepared for this traffic,

  • Learn about the entry-exit processes for guests with license plates.

• Your neighbors:

  • Constant guest traffic with suitcases,

  • Late-night entries and exits,

  • The risk of noise
    may be sensitive issues.

Homeyday, while preparing guest rules:

• Siler hours,

• Balcony and common area usage rules,

• By clearly stating items such as party/crowd event prohibitions,
  it ensures neighborly relations are not disrupted.

4. Apartment Equipment: You Are Hosting Guests, Not Long-Term Renters

It's more accurate to think of the guest profile in daily rentals as “hotel guests.”

Specific attention must be paid to:

• Beds and bed headboards:
  Directly affect the perception of comfort and hygiene.

• Bedding, towels, pillows, comforters:
  Must meet the minimum standard in number and quality.

• Kitchen equipment:
  Basic cooking and serving equipment (pot, pan, plate, fork, knife, glass).

• Internet & TV:
  Indispensable today; especially decisive for long stays.

• Air conditioning / heating:
  Antalya is hot, but heating is also important in certain times of the year.

Homeyday creates a “minimum standard check-list” for your apartment,
helping you identify deficiencies and complete them cost-effectively if necessary.

5. Pricing and Seasonal Logic: You Cannot Survive the Entire Year with a Single Price

In Antalya:

• Summer season,

• Spring and autumn,

• The winter period
  requires different pricing.

Things to pay attention to:

• In the summer months:

  • 
    

    High occupancy potential,

  • Prices can be positioned higher.

• Spring/autumn:

  • Moderate price balances “occupancy + income”.

• Winter:

  • 
    

    Knowing there is lower demand,

  • You may turn to long-term stays or discounted campaigns.

Homeyday strives to optimize each period individually instead of getting stuck on a single price with dynamically pricing and seasonal management.

6. Cleaning, Laundry, and Operations: This is the Toughest Part

In daily rentals:

• After each guest's departure:

  • Cleaning,

  • Bedding and towel changes,

  • Renewal of consumption materials are required.

• Check-in/check-out times:

  • If check-out and check-in are both on the same day,

  • The cleaning time is very critical.

When you attempt to manage this operation by yourself:

• Constant running between guests and cleaners on the phone,

• Last-minute cancellations, postponed flights,

• Late-night questions like “where is the key?”
  you will be exposed to many details.

Homeyday model:

• Guest communication,

• Cleaning planning,

• Key/keybox management,

• Target to take over KBS and check-in processes
  professionally.

7. Security, Damage, and Insurance

As a homeowner, you have a legitimate concern:

“What will happen if they damage the house?”

Things to pay attention to:

• Security programs offered by platforms (for example, Airbnb's guarantee system),

• Home insurance you can take for your apartment,

• Clearly writing guest rules,

• Checking the apartment after check-out.

Homeyday, with post-departure condition checks:

• Instant damage assessment,

• Following up on steps like opening a file through the platform if necessary.

8. By Yourself or with Professional Management?

The final decision point is actually this:

• Do I want to manage
  the whole process:

  • Finding guests,

  • Listing management,

  • Pricing,

  • Message traffic,

  • Cleaning, laundry,

  • KBS, check-in/check-out
    want to manage myself?

Or:

• “I would like to trust my property to the right team,
  receive regular reports, and see my net profit at the end of the month”
  andwant to proceed with professional management?
