A stepping stone to the dream of an allergy-friendly retreat – Widokowy Szczawnica

Who is our client?

In the picturesque town of Szczawnica, nestled among green hills and the sounds of the Dunajec River, lies a unique place – Widokowy Szczawnica. This modern hotel was born from a dream to create a haven for people seeking tranquility and closeness to nature while also dealing with the daily challenges of allergies.

When the owner came to us in May 2020, the COVID-19 pandemic was in full swing, and the hospitality industry faced unprecedented challenges. However, this did not deter his vision – quite the opposite, it gave him the courage and determination to carry out his plan.

The challenge

The owner of Widokowy Szczawnica had a clear vision – to create a website that would not only inform but also inspire and convince. He wanted every visitor to the site to immediately feel that this place is special. We set out to accomplish several key tasks:

1. Clear communication of the mission: The website needed to clearly convey that Widokowy Szczawnica is a haven for people with allergies, offering numerous amenities tailored to their needs. Guests had to know from the very first moments that they were in good hands.
2. Highlighting the location and surroundings: Finding the right words and images to convey the uniqueness of the location was key. Widokowy Szczawnica was not just a place to sleep but a base for discovering the beauty of the Pieniny Mountains and the Dunajec Valley.
3. Attractive presentation of the accommodation offer: Every apartment and room had to have its “moment of fame” on the website – both in description and photography.
4. Intuitive booking module: In a time when speed and convenience are paramount, the website had to offer an easy booking method, available at a user’s fingertips.

The execution

We started by aligning with the dreams and goals of the owner. This was a time for questions, listening, and understanding – what did he want to achieve? What emotions should the website evoke? And most importantly, what values should it convey?

Execution steps:

1. Consultations and content preparation: The owner, passionately talking about his property, prepared all the content. We helped organize it and tailor it to user needs, ensuring every piece of information had its place and purpose.
2. Website design: We focused on a visual experience. Large, panoramic photos grabbed attention and conveyed the magic of the place, while short text complemented what the images already said. We wanted potential guests to almost feel the mountain air and hear the sound of the Dunajec as they browsed the site.
3. Website implementation: Time was of the essence. The owner could not afford to wait long, so we opted for a static version of the site. It was fast, efficient, and most importantly, allowed us to quickly realize the client’s vision.
4. Testing and optimization: Every detail mattered. We ran a series of tests to ensure the site worked flawlessly, and that all elements – from images to forms – were perfectly polished.
5. Booking module: We ensured that the booking module was not only functional but also user-friendly. A few clicks, and the reservation was ready – that’s how it needed to be.
6. Integration with analytical tools: The final step was integrating the site with analytical tools. This allowed the owner to monitor site traffic in real-time and adjust the offer to meet guest needs.

The results

The result of our work is not just a website but a tool that became an extension of Widokowy Szczawnica’s mission. The site began to attract attention, raising awareness of the property and contributing to increased reservations. Anyone who visited the site could almost feel the fresh mountain air and see what awaits them in this unique place.

By using large, eye-catching photos and simple yet informative descriptions, we created a virtual journey that was both inspiring and informative. The booking module ensured a smooth user experience, while the integration with analytical tools allowed for ongoing optimization and better understanding of guest needs.

Bananaconda, and specifically their representative Mr. Karol, approached the development of the Widokowy Szczawnica site very concretely and professionally. After getting to know the topic and outlining the approach to achieve the desired result, Mr. Karol immediately got to work. He presented the project, proposed graphics, and advised on technical, hosting, and marketing aspects. The great communication, cooperation, and desire to meet expectations resulted in an outcome that exceeded expectations. I highly recommend them to anyone looking for a professional website, comprehensive execution, and implementation. Thank you and best regards
