Villa Oliva Nova: direct bookings and full control

A boutique stay that relied on the OTAs and managed availability by hand. We built its own booking website and a dashboard that unifies channels, pricing and accounting.

The challenge

All demand came through Booking, Airbnb and Vrbo — with their commission — and management (calendar, pricing, expenses) lived in scattered sheets. There was no owned channel and no single view of the business.

What we did

• Direct-booking website: live calendar, reviews and a booking engine with online payment, synced with the OTAs to avoid overbooking.
• Management dashboard: multi-channel calendar (Airbnb, Booking, Vrbo, direct), pricing, bookings, expenses and accounting in one place.
• Integration: website and dashboard connected — what gets booked reflects instantly in both.

The result

A direct channel that recovers the commission on every owned booking, and a single screen to run the property. The base to scale without depending only on the platforms.
