Online Booking Interfaces - Customise To Suit Your Property!

Mitchel Wallenhoffer • Apr 23, 2024

Your property has it's own distinctive look, doesn't it?


Whether it's a beachside resort, rainforest retreat, rustic farm getaway or anything in between, it's that look that your guests remember you by.

The same goes for your website. Whether intentional or not, your guests judge your property by the look of your website - before they have even set foot in it!


Your online booking interfaces, provided by your property management system (PMS), are an extension of your own website, and can either make or break your guest's buyers journey. How can you customise your online booking interfaces to suit your property?

IMAGES, COLOURS AND BRANDING


Does your online booking interface look like your website, or someone else's?


While most PMSes will host your online booking page themselves, there's no reason it can't look like your page, instead of something that looks completely out of place or was last updated in 2007.


Does the page include your branding? Is your logo front and centre, along with your branding colours? Does it feature images from your property - rooms, bathrooms, amenities, local landmarks and attractions? These features will go a long way in giving your prospective guests the confidence to book now.

BOOK BY MAP - OR UNIT TYPE?


How do your guests like to book their room, or unit, or site?


One way is by guests selecting their desired unit type - usually from a clean and easy to navigate list like the image above.


Guests can then simply follow the booking journey all the way through to payment and confirmation.


In the case of a Caravan Park or Campground, guests often like to pick their own specific site - either one that closest to the amenities or even where it's easiest to park their van! Let these guests book via your Park map - all the guest has to do is simply enter in their desired dates, click on one of the available green dots for a vacant sites and complete the booking!

In the competitive world of hospitality and property management, maximizing occupancy and, in turn, revenue is a top priority. Today's travelers demand seamless experiences, and property managers require efficient, user-friendly tools to meet these expectations. Enter RezExpert’s cutting-edge online booking and reservation management system, complete with an impressive auto-optimisation feature that promises not just to meet, but exceed, these industry demands. Unlocking the Power of Auto-Optimisation For the uninitiated, auto-optimisation may sound like a complex algorithm. In reality, it's a sophisticated but user-friendly feature that automatically enhances the efficiency of the booking grid. It works diligently in the background, ensuring that your property’s spaces, whether they’re hotel rooms, campground spots, or rental units, are filled optimally. Here's the magic of it: the system assigns individual units or sites to guests upon their arrival. This dynamic assignment, steered by advanced algorithms, ensures optimal usage of available inventory, minimizing gaps and maximising occupancy. Impressive Results Right Out of the Gate It's not just about advanced technology; it's about measurable outcomes. With RezExpert’s auto-optimisation, clients have witnessed a staggering increase of over 12% in occupancy within just the first month of implementation. When translated to revenue, this uptick can be the differentiator between an average fiscal year and an outstanding one. Imagine this: if a property with 100 units boosts its occupancy rate by 12%, that's an additional 12 units filled every night. For properties with premium pricing, this increase is tantamount to significant extra revenue month after month. Beyond Revenue: Streamlined Management and Enhanced Guest Experience The benefits of RezExpert’s auto-optimisation feature aren’t confined to the balance sheet. By ensuring optimal occupancy and efficient inventory use, property managers can offer a more streamlined guest experience. No longer are guests shuffled around last-minute or given suboptimal placements due to manual oversight. Instead, each guest is assigned the best possible unit, enhancing their overall experience and satisfaction. A satisfied guest isn’t just a one-time revenue entry; they're potential repeat customers and enthusiastic brand ambassadors who can drive referrals and positive reviews. In the digital age, where online reviews significantly influence booking decisions, ensuring every guest has a standout experience is invaluable. Conclusion: An Investment in the Future Embracing innovative solutions like RezExpert’s online booking and reservation management system is more than an operational decision; it's an investment in the future. With features like auto-optimisation at the helm, property managers are equipped to navigate the dynamic and demanding landscape of the hospitality industry. If you're in the hospitality sector and looking for a robust solution to raise your revenue, give your guests an unmatched experience, and streamline your operations, RezExpert’s system is a worthy contender. With tangible results in just a month, the ROI is not just promising; it's proven. In the ever-evolving world of property management, standing still is not an option. With tools like RezExpert by your side, you're not just moving; you're soaring.
