Warm Booking Site for Rome Apartment

Job ID: 40410855

Budget: €250 – €750 EUR

I want to replace the big OTA middlemen with my own warm-and-cozy, fully responsive website for the apartment I host in Rome. The heart of the site has to be a direct booking engine that effortlessly guides guests from “I like it here” to a confirmed reservation without ever leaving the site.

Here is what I need delivered:
• A warm, inviting design that matches the character of a Roman holiday home—think easy-to-read typography, earthy tones, and plenty of space for large photos.
• A secure booking engine embedded in the site, set up to capture guests’ contact information, stay dates, and payment details in one smooth flow. Credit-card processing must happen on a PCI-compliant gateway, and the calendar must show real-time availability so guests see accurate dates.
• An intuitive owner dashboard where I can adjust nightly rates, block dates, and pull reservation data.
• SEO-friendly structure, fast load times, and mobile-first layouts so travelers on their phones can complete a booking in seconds.
• Final hand-off that includes full source files, admin credentials, and brief documentation so I can maintain content myself.

If you have a preferred booking SaaS or a bespoke solution in mind, let me know in your proposal—just be sure it blends seamlessly into the site’s warm aesthetic and keeps guests on my domain from start to finish.
