Services Available at our rental properties
In addition to offering short-term rental of premium properties in South Jersey throughout the year, we offer a variety of extra services. Services vary throughout the year, based upon availability and time constraints. Contact info@maryhouse.com or call 610 505 7362 for more information.
Babysitting
We can provide names and contact information for local babysitters. Each sitter can provide information about experience and references.
Baskets
We can put you in contact with a local vendor who will create custom baskets, full of gourmet goodies and treats. (We even had one tenant request an engagement basket, with the ring hidden inside!) A basket can be a nice gift or a welcome treat and can be ready for your arrival or prepared and delivered anytime during your stay.
Catering
We have a variety of catering services available to serve you. Services range from cooking foods (and delivering them to the property) that you serve, to buffet service, to sit-down affairs that are served by the caterer. Meals, including brunch and dinner, as well as snacks for cocktail parties, even 'breakfast in bed', are available. Bartending services are also available for small parties. Menus and services range from casual to elegant, including beach picnic preparation, barbeque, and gourmet meals!
Cleaning Services
Each house is professionally cleaned between rentals. You are expected to leave the property in the condition in which you found it and cleaning supplies are provided by the owner, in the house. We give you the option of requesting cleaning (and having the fee deducted from your security deposit). You may also make arrangements directly with a local cleaning service to have them do all the cleaning for you (we can provide you with a list of preferred vendors). (If the house is not left in a clean and orderly condition, the costs of cleaning are deducted from your security deposit.)
Concierge Services
If you need help with plans, making reservations, suggestions for 'things to do and places to go', just ask. Information about local events, how to get to local stores, etc. is provided in the house upon your arrival, but we are happy to help with your plans in advance of your arrival. We want to do all that we can to help make sure that you enjoy your stay and get the most out of the area! (there is no charge for most of these services)
Crib Rental
Though cribs, high-chairs, and other supplies for infants and small children are not available in the houses, each of our properties is child-friendly. We can put you in touch with reasonable (and reliable) rental services for any equipment you need and help with arrangements for delivery to the property (as well as pickup).
Exercise
We can recommend local gyms that offer 'drop in' service so that you can keep up with your routine while staying at our houses. We can also recommend local bike rental places, if that is your exercise of choice!
House Decoration
If you are renting one of our properties for a special occasion like a wedding or birthday, we can provide a variety of house decorating services for the inside and outside of the property (note: Several of our properties are decorated, inside and out, for Thanksgiving and Christmas, at no charge to you).
House Warming Services
Imagine walking into your vacation property to the smell of fresh flowers, seeing a stocked refrigerator and pantry, having chilled beer or wine ready, and even having some home-made goodies ready for you to snack on as you unpack. We offer 'house warming' services like these and many more.
Internet Services
You can still stay connected, even on holiday! Many of our properties offer access to local (unsecured) wireless networks. We have made arrangements with a local Internet provider for low-cost internet access during your stay. Some of our properties have 2 phone lines so that you can surf the web without interrupting the use of the voice line. See our Internet Page for more information.
Linen Service
Our rentals do not include linens, but we offer linen rentals (sheets, pillowcases, and towels). You can choose from a variety of services, including having the beds made prior to your arrival. See our Linens Page for more information.
Maid Service
Daily maid services are available. Services can include cleaning, bed making, laundry, cooking, etc.
Pet Sitting
Though we love animals, we are unable to accommodate pets during your stay. We do have information about local pet-sitting services who have references. By using a local service, you can have your pet nearby and visit during your stay.
Photography
We have local photographers available to take special shots of your family trip, at the house or other locations. Beach portraits, etc. are available. We put you in contact with the photographers, who can provide you with work samples and references.
Shopping Tours
With the help of a local limousine service, we can arrange for shopping or antiquing tours, including stops for lunch, or combining trips with local 'pub crawls'!
Spa Services
We can have a local massage therapist or beautician come to the property, set up his or her table, and provide you with a massage while you listen to the sounds of the ocean! We can also put you in touch with professionals for on-site manicure, pedicure, facial, hair, and other services. If you prefer to visit one of the many local spas, we can help with recommendations and arrangements.
Telephone
Unlimited local calls are included in your property rental fee. Long distance phone services are not included in your rental, so please use your cell phone or use a calling card or credit card to make these calls. If you do make long distance calls using the property phone line, the cost of those calls will be deducted from your security deposit.
