What features have you found boost your rental appeal, especially in off-peak months?

I’ve been looking at data on rental properties in Destin and Panama City Beach, and certain amenities seem to drive higher booking rates. From personal experience, outdoor entertainment areas, modern kitchens, and even beach gear can make a huge difference. What features have you found boost your rental appeal, especially in off-peak months?

Quote from @Andrew Steffens:

We are in FL too, and heated pools!

In general totally maximizing the outdoor space.  Our slow season is months with some of the best weather IMO and people come here to escape bad weather further North.

Heated pools are great, but have you ever looked at the extra cost of energy and maintenance? I wonder if the extra cost is worth it or not?
