In this case, you can look at our example project with the design and website development for booking luxury villas. A client came to us with a simple but powerful request: build a website that opens the door to both luxury and affordable villas in Greece, Italy, and Spain.

The website would feature two primary categories: exclusive villa stays and more budget-friendly options for travelers seeking unique villas for rent. Our web development service creates useful options for users: your valued customers.

Our Process of Development a Website Project

Logo Creation. We started the whole process by creating mood boards and presenting various logo concepts. The seahorse design was the clear winner. It also beautifully represented the Mediterranean marine connection they were looking for.
UX Research: As a UI/UX design agency, we conducted in-depth user experience design analysis, creating an Ideal Customer Profile and mapping out user flows to optimize the villa booking online journey.
High-Fidelity Wireframes: Based on our research, we designed detailed wireframes to ensure a smooth user experience. This phase allowed us to visually map out the user journey for both exclusive villa stays and affordable villa rentals.
Style and UI Design. We kept things clean and simple, sticking with those beautiful sandy colors and soft pastels that make you think of beach mornings. The whole thing feels light and airy. That’s exactly what travelers want when browsing vacation rentals.
Building the Engine and website development. We went with WordPress because it’s reliable and our client can actually use it without a computer science degree. Then we plugged in WebHotelier to handle all the villa bookings and invoicing, basically their entire rental operation. PayPal takes care of payments, so guests can book with confidence.
User Guide. Once the site was live, we put together a step-by-step manual covering all the important stuff. Now they can handle updates, add new villas, and keep everything running smoothly without calling us every week.

“I’m so glad I found this team. They made what I thought would be a stressful process actually enjoyable. Always available to chat, incredibly talented, and they also really understood my vision. Looking forward to our next collaboration.”
