Step 2: Amenities

In the Step 2: Amenities section, all the necessary information about the property and its layout can be specified. It is possible to adjust the number of rooms, their type and any other information that is relevant, including rules for the future guests and amenities.

After being reviewed, amenities are mapped between Rentals United and the Homes & Villas by Marriott Bonvoy. However, please note that not all of them can be successfully mapped, as they appear variously for Rentals United and Homes & Villas by Marriott Bonvoy. In order to learn the details of the mapped amenities, it is possible to request a full summary of mappings. In order to do that, contact the Rentals United Support Team.

Number of bedrooms

Number of bedrooms refers to the overall number of rooms intended to sleep.

Typically in Rentals United, in order to have a studio apartment the number of bedrooms must be "0". However, the Homes & Villas by Marriott Bonvoy expects only properties where the number of bedrooms is greater than “0”. This way, if you have the “0” value selected, the property will not be accepted at the Homes & Villas by Marriott Bonvoy side.

Number of bathrooms

Number of bathrooms refers to the overall number of bathing rooms with a shower or a bath.

Number of toilets

Number of toilets refers to the overall number of WCs.

Homes & Villas by Marriott Bonvoy will be informed about the exact number of toilets. Each toilet will be counted in as 0.5 bathroom. Also, the information about the number of toilets will be displayed on the listing page.

If you have the following settings in Rentals United:

  • Number of bathrooms = 2

  • Number of toilets = 1

Homes & Villas by Marriott Bonvoy will display the number of bathrooms as 2.5 on their website.

If you have the following settings in Rentals United:

  • Number of bathrooms = 2

  • Number of toilets = 2

Homes & Villas by Marriott Bonvoy will display the number of bathrooms as 3 on their website.

 

Kitchen

Note: The information about kitchen will not be synchronized from Rentals United to the channel. However, in Minimum requirements to connect Homes & Villas by Marriott Bonvoy expects the property to be equipped with certain range of amenities and kitchen essentials are one of them.

Bedding composition

Homes & Villas by Marriott Bonvoy accepts beds in both cases:

  • if they are distributed across rooms in Rentals United,

  • if they are inserted in the General section.

Note, however, that in some cases Rentals United attempts to distribute beds from the General section across rooms. If that is not possible, beds from the General section get synchronized to Homes & Villas by Marriott Bonvoy under the living room area on the Homes & Villas by Marriott Bonvoy website.

Example: As shown in the figure, beds distributed across three bedrooms will be synchronized with the Homes & Villas by Marriott Bonvoy. These are: queen size bed, double sofa bed and single bed. Any beds that are inserted in the General list will be synchronized under the living room area in Homes & Villas by Marriott Bonvoy. In this case, it is the sofa bed.

Amenities distribution across rooms (N/A)

In this integration, this element is not synchronized by Homes & Villas by Marriott Bonvoy. Amenities available at the property will still be synchronized with the Homes & Villas by Marriott Bonvoy according to the performed mapping; however, the Homes & Villas by Marriott Bonvoy will not receive information on how these amenities are distributed. Hence, all the amenities will be synchronized as if they were inserted in the General list.
