Answer the questions before guests choose dates.
Atmosphere matters, but guests also need room types, capacity, bed configuration, facilities, and any areas shared with others. For properties with multiple accommodation types, use a consistent information order. Explain relevant limitations, such as stair access or shared-area rules.
Choose photographs that explain the actual stay.
Use current photography from the actual property. Include bathrooms, sitting areas, access, and surroundings alongside pools and bedrooms. Identify shared facilities and accommodation types in captions where useful. Filenames and alternative text should describe the image naturally.
Distinguish a stay request from a reservation.
A dates-and-guests form can help staff prepare a reply, but it does not automatically hold a room. Confirmed direct booking needs connected availability, rate rules, and a confirmation process. Review the current booking engine and channel manager before committing to an integration.
Make practical information easy to find.
Guests should not need several applications to understand the location or main policies. Prepare the following information using details checked by the operator.
- Location or area, arrival instructions, and an accurate map link.
- Check-in/out times and cancellation, child, and additional guest policies.
- Active contact details, communication languages, and a stay enquiry route.
- Current pricing or packages, with terms and included items.
Choose a service that fits the audience.
A guest-facing property website differs from a villa management company seeking property owners. Decide the primary audience before planning pages. The structure should connect accommodation information with guest enquiries, or management information with owner consultations.
