Lodge Booking Website Checklist for African Properties
Before you redesign
- List every property, room type, and package you sell
- Decide booking path: engine, enquiry, WhatsApp, or hybrid
- Collect high-quality photos (rooms, dining, wildlife, staff)
- Confirm NAP details for Google Business Profile alignment
Must-have pages
- Homepage with clear property positioning
- Rooms / tents / villas with amenities
- Experiences and destination context
- Rates or “from” pricing guidance (where appropriate)
- Contact / enquire with response-time promise
- About / sustainability / community story if authentic
Technical non-negotiables
Mobile performance, image compression, SSL, analytics events on enquire buttons, and SEO titles that include property + destination (not only brand).
After launch
