Croatia Mansion Rent
A luxury villa agency on the Croatian coast. On their WordPress site the map pins piled on top of each other and guests had no clear way from a villa to an enquiry. The redesign takes them from destination to villa to enquiry.
The brief
Croatia Mansion Rent rents out luxury villas and holiday homes along the Croatian coast. Their site listed the villas, but the map clustered the pins and the path from browsing to enquiring was unclear.
The constraint
Keep their navy, blue, and gold brand, and their real villas and prices. Every change was shown to the client on a preview site before it went anywhere near the live one.
What we built
A fast static site with 17 villa categories, search by destination, dates and guests, a Leaflet map, and a dedicated page for each villa. A Croatian admin prototype shows the team how villas, reservations, and messages would be managed.
What shipped
- A destination-first map, so pins no longer pile up on top of each other.
- A page for every villa: gallery, amenities, distances, house rules, and a booking enquiry.
- Croatian, English, and German, down to every villa description.
Result
A preview the client could click through and sign off on, section by section, before launch.
