(The challenge)

Jara Beach Resort is an award-winning, all-inclusive beachfront resort in Lagos, but reservations came in through calls, WhatsApp and email. Staff tracked availability in spreadsheets, there was no online payment and no automated confirmation, and a guest couldn't book at 11pm on a Sunday without waiting for a human reply.

  • Reservations managed manually via calls and messages
  • No real-time availability, so double-bookings were a real risk
  • High-friction journey from discovery to confirmation
  • Staff overhead growing with every new enquiry

(What we built)

Real-time reservation engine

  • Live room and package availability with conflict prevention
  • A booking flow that goes select, configure, pay, confirm
  • Different room types, packages (day passes, overnight stays, full buyouts) and seasonal pricing
  • Automated email confirmations and pre-arrival reminders

Admin dashboard and payments

  • Reservations, check-ins and an occupancy overview in one place
  • Payment processing built into checkout, so funds are captured without external redirects

Premium brand site

  • Custom visual design aligned to the resort's brand language
  • Mobile-first checkout, since most guests book on their phone
  • Package comparison UI and trust signals above the fold

(The core insight)
