The Devil’s Dev

Hospitality & travel · Across Asia

Guests find you on Instagram, Maps and booking platforms. Many then look for your own website before they commit. We build hospitality sites that look as good as the place, load on a weak signal and make booking direct the easy option.

Who this is for

By market

The problem

Beautiful photos, no prices, availability only by email, a WhatsApp number that goes unanswered at night and an English-only site for a market that also books in Thai, Chinese or Bahasa. Each of those sends a guest back to the platform, and the commission comes with them.

Illustrative examples. Small changes in wording and structure change how a customer reads the business.

The work

The website

Photography-led pages that stay fast, with rooms, rates, location and the things guests actually ask about. English-led, with other languages where your guests need them.

  • Fast, image-led design
  • Rates and availability up front
  • Multilingual where it pays

Direct booking

A booking flow through your existing booking engine or channel manager, or a simple enquiry-and-deposit flow where that suits better.

  • Booking engine integration
  • Deposits by card and local QR
  • Confirmations in the guest’s language

Messaging & follow-up

WhatsApp and LINE links that carry the dates and the question, routed to whoever is on shift, with a record of who replied.

  • Pre-filled WhatsApp and LINE links
  • Staff routing and hours
  • Simple enquiry tracking

Questions

Will we still need the booking platforms?

Probably, and that is fine. Platforms bring guests who would never find you otherwise. A good direct site gives repeat guests and those who look you up a better, cheaper way to book.

Can you integrate our booking engine?

Most booking engines and channel managers offer a widget or an API. We confirm what yours supports during discovery and design around it.

Do you take the photographs?

No. Photography is its own craft. We can brief your photographer on what the site needs, then make sure every image is sized and compressed so the site stays fast.

Markets

Channels, payments, languages and data rules differ in each market. Each page covers what matters there.
