Going on vacation? You'll need a hotel! Find the right price...the right location...now it's time to look at the amenities. These are all the added stuff that makes the hotel special, things like pools, gyms, free breakfasts, etc.

The same term can apply to any property. Beyond hotel searches, amenities might be listed for any real estate transaction. For home sales, these amenities might include physical attributes of a home...again, pools or gyms might count. Or they can refer the surroundings, amenities like nearby transportation (bus and subway lines) as well as more intangible benefits, like the quality of local schools.
