When guests walk into a freshly cleaned vacation rental and smile at how spotless everything feels, they’re not thinking about what it took to get there—but we are. At Sharky Cleaning, every turnover is a carefully managed operation, designed to be fast, thorough, and consistent. It’s more than just making beds and wiping counters—it’s about delivering peace of mind to both property owners and their guests.
Here’s a behind-the-scenes look at what really happens during a Sharky Cleaning turnover in Miramar Beach.
Step 1: Preparation Before Arrival
We don’t just show up—we come prepared. Before we step foot on the property, our team reviews the service notes for that specific home:
- Are there guest notes or special requests?
- Is there damage to document?
- Do we have updated codes or checklists?
We also verify linens and supplies needed for that day’s cleaning. If it’s a same-day turnover, time is tight—so preparation is everything.
Step 2: Full Walkthrough and Assessment
Upon arrival, we begin with a quick walkthrough:
- Any items left behind?
- Condition of bathrooms, kitchen, bedrooms?
- Odors, damage, or areas needing special attention?
This allows us to prioritize tasks and flag anything unusual for the host—especially if maintenance or repairs are needed before the next check-in.
Step 3: Room-by-Room Cleaning
Our cleaning process follows a room-by-room structure:
Kitchen:
Appliances cleaned inside and out, counters sanitized, cabinet fronts wiped, sink scrubbed, trash removed, floors mopped.
Bathrooms:
Full disinfection of all surfaces, including shower walls, glass doors, faucets, toilet base, and handles. Towels replaced, toiletries restocked (if provided), and mirrors polished.
Bedrooms:
Fresh linens on every bed, pillows fluffed, under-bed check, nightstands cleaned, and any personal items from past guests removed.
Living Areas:
Dusting, vacuuming under furniture, wiping of remotes, light switches, and high-touch surfaces. Cushions fluffed, decor straightened.
Step 4: Laundry and Linens
If linens are on-site, we start a first load immediately. If using a linen service, we deliver clean items and remove used ones without delay. We double-check for stains, hair, and freshness.
Nothing breaks a 5-star first impression like a questionable sheet or towel.
Step 5: Final Touches
We finish with the details that elevate the entire experience:
- Airing out the space for freshness
- Replacing air fresheners (if provided)
- Making sure all lights work
- Closing blinds or adjusting lighting for check-in mood
- A quick final walk-through with fresh eyes
Step 6: Reporting and Confirmation
Before we leave, we send a quick report if needed:
- Noting damage or missing items
- Confirming everything is ready
- Uploading photos if requested
This gives hosts peace of mind—especially if they’re managing remotely.
A Sharky Cleaning turnover isn’t just a quick wipe-down—it’s a process built on precision, care, and local knowledge of what vacation guests in Miramar Beach expect. That’s why our clients trust us again and again to prepare their homes for flawless stays.
