New STR Rental Property in Cape Coral

My parents closed about 2 months ago on a beautiful condo in Cape Harbour. Updated 3 bed 2 bath, great view and amenities. I know the summer months is bad to get traction down there and the current overall market there. They signed up with a management company that covers everything. Wondering if there's any tips and tricks for them/management company to do to help get some people in the unit. I think one of the main things is there are no reviews on the unit yet. 

Appreciate any insight!

Cape Coral, Florida

No big trick here, but undercut your competition's prices for a month or two to force bookings. Old school, but it still works for new Airbnbs and STRs going live here in Colorado during shoulder season between skiing and hiking.
