Website Revamp with SuperControl API Integration
To enhance their online presence, STS Holidays partnered with gloversure to develop a user-friendly website that aligns with their branding. Recognising the need for efficient property searches and seamless booking processes, we implemented a feature-rich SuperControl API integration. This integration includes exclusive features designed to boost functionality and drive direct bookings.
Travel Agency Branding
The new website revitalises STS Holidays' branding with a clean and fresh look. It includes a pre-defined search bar and engaging pages showcasing their offerings, creating an intuitive and seamless user experience. A ‘New Properties’ section on the homepage features the latest additions in an eye-catching sliding carousel. Additionally, the ‘Holiday Occasions’ navigation bar allows customers to view date-specific properties for occasions like Summer Half Term, Easter, and Christmas, driving direct bookings.
Services & Technology
We enhanced the user experience for STS Holidays by integrating the SuperControl API, streamlining their property management and booking processes. With a rich selection of self-catering properties across North Wales, STS Holidays needed a solution that provided both operational efficiency and a seamless user journey.
Advanced Search Functionality
The enhanced search option, along with an embedded map feature, allows users to view property locations relevant to their search criteria, updating instantly as search variables change. Users can refine their searches with extensive filter options, including proximity to the beach, views, enclosed gardens, open fire, private parking, and Wi-Fi. Clicking the map icon displays property details, including images, capacity, amenities, and dog-friendliness, with a button to view the property.
Custom Built Calendars
To further improve booking efficiency, a custom-built calendar was integrated, enhancing the standard SuperControl booking calendar. This custom calendar aligns with STS Holidays' branding and displays the latest prices and availability. It also allows STS Holidays to tailor customer experiences with seasonal imagery, such as autumn scenes for October bookings.
Incorporating Exclusive Features
By integrating the SuperControl API and incorporating exclusive features, gloversure has significantly enhanced STS Holidays' online presence. This integration provides a seamless, efficient, and engaging user experience, ensuring STS Holidays continues to offer exceptional service and memorable stays for their guests.
