Website Built to Convert Travelers & Owners
Custom WordPress Development
We built a fully custom, fast-loading website optimized for direct bookings with strong CTAs and emotional visuals that showcase the Jupiter lifestyle. The site features a striking video banner that immediately transports visitors to this beautiful Florida destination.
Every aspect was designed with conversion in mind – from intuitive navigation to strategic placement of booking forms. This wasn't a template solution but a carefully crafted digital experience.
Seamless Technology Integration
The website seamlessly integrates with HostAway Property Management System (PMS), automatically syncing availability, pricing, and bookings across all channels. This eliminates double bookings and pricing errors while streamlining operations.
We also implemented a live chat feature with AI assistant capability to help convert visitors 24/7, answering questions instantly even when staff are unavailable – a critical advantage in the competitive vacation rental market.
