How to Create Welcome and Arrival Experiences for Guests with Local Goodies.

A welcome basket of local goodies is a lovely surprise for guests when they are arriving at your short term rental property. It is so thoughtful. And, it is so exciting for guests and a very fun way to start their memorable experience at your rental accommodation.


Find some local delicacies and bakeries and ask what their trade mark specialties are and create a delightful platter or basket. Your guests will feel like they are getting a local experience eating all these wonderful local goods. Or you could even leave out some wine or port from one of Mornington Peninsula's wineries with some handmade chocolates and truffles from Mornington Peninsula Chocolaterie... yum! Also check out Two Girls and a Cocktail. They do amazing colourful grazing boxes.


You may want to check for food allergies and diet restrictions prior to guests arriving to avoid disappointment. If they have a gluten free diet then check out The Good Food Bakery in Mornington. Everything in this bakery is gluten free and looks so sweet. The aim here is to make guests feel special that their surprise arrival welcome pack has been created just for them. You may be able to strike up some great deals with the local shop owners if you are buying products regularly or in bulk.


Have fun with this!
