When I ran a guest house in the Canary Islands, we offered free bikes and guests couldn't get enough of them.

And for us, the costs were minimal with only just a bit of maintenance here and there.

While some places try to upsell bike rentals, I found that giving them for free really enhanced the guest experience. It also generated great content for social media, helping to build your brand naturally. Guests love sharing their adventures, and it’s a simple way to create lasting memories.
