Vacation Rentals: More Than Just A Pretty Room
A successful vacation rental property must be more than just beautiful images for a website listing.
Rentals are high-volume residences and must be functional, durable and easy to maintain. Our team sources everything from bath towels, to upholstered sofas, to deck chairs. We research and recommend furnishings, textiles and hospitality products based budget, durability, and efficiency.

Co-Owner, Founder - Vacation Rental Designers
Jessica Duce, owner of JDuce Design, LLC, has been in the design industry most of her life. She was asked to design a VRBO on the Oregon Coast in 2015 for a client. That learning experience inspired her to create a new company specifically for the needs of the vacation rental industry.
She saw the opportunity to share her skills in vacation rental design in 2023 and formed the Vacation Rental Designer Collective to mentor and support other designers in this category.
Jessica is active in the design community as the President of the Houston Interior Design Society, National Membership committee for IDS, active speaker and panelist for furnishings markets and the co-creator of the Vacation Rental Design Summit. She has been published nationally and locally as well as a contributor.
Jessica is the mother of three, an avid traveler with her husband of 30+ years, a pickleball player with below-average cooking skills, and loyal wine of the month subscriber.
