First steps in the STR journey

Wife and I made our first step of the journey and purchased a property in Panama City Beach in October. We probably bit off more than we could chew and decided to remodel it from a 2/2.5 to a 3/3.5. Figured having 3 bedrooms in the beach area would help stand out a bit more than the thousands of other 2/2's in the PCB area. Also thought it would be attractive to families. Welcome to any suggestions on how we might improve. Waiting on fire inspection so that we can get our STR permit and list on AirBNB/VRBO.

have bundled our property with some of my sister's Utah properties on a direct billing website (using OwnerRez). pictures of our place can be seen below.

so any obvious mistakes we made? Thanks in advance.

Great place. I would add some more pops of colors 


 i thought that, but was overruled by the wife. maybe if that comment comes up more she will listen. anyone married long enough knows any suggestion a husband makes is always wrong  =)

Happy wife, happy life! But some color would help your listing pop
