Case study
Ohiwa Ocean View Apartments
The Challenge:
The new owners of Ōhiwa Ocean View Apartments needed a complete brand and website build that reflected the peaceful, high-end experience of their coastal accommodation. They wanted a professional online presence that would support direct bookings and make information easy for guests to access.
The Solution:
I created a custom-designed WordPress website that reflects the calm, luxurious feel of the property, while keeping the booking experience simple and user-friendly.
It includes:
- An integrated booking system with real-time availability
- Mobile-friendly design and intuitive navigation
- Practical guest info like check-in details, amenities, and local attractions
- Booking.com integration for broader reach and synced availability
I also designed the logo, signage, and printed material to create a consistent brand experience across the business.
