VRS589 - Creating Spectrum-Friendly Vacation Rentals with Suzanne Hacker
About this episode
1 in 36 children in the U.S. have been identified with autism spectrum disorder (ASD), which represents a significant increase from previous years with the prevalence of autism in the U.S. increasing by 312% since 2001.
While these are staggering statistics, they also represent an opportunity for vacation rental owners and managers to create the inclusive and safe spaces that families with autistic children need. And it doesn't require a huge investment.
In this episode of the Vacation Rental Success Podcast, Suzanne Hacker, the founder of Spectrum Friendly Vacations, shares her ideas on how vacation rental owners can make small yet meaningful changes to create accessible spaces for these families.
Suzanne Hacker is a vacation rental business coach and passionate advocate for inclusivity. She works with vacation rental hosts to design properties that accommodate families with autistic children. Drawing from her background in vacation rental management and her personal experiences, Suzanne offers practical advice on safety, sensory-friendly spaces, and effective marketing strategies to reach this growing niche.
