Featured Design: Kaslo Motel

Kaslo Motel is much more than a typical roadside stop, offering guests varied accommodations in quality motel rooms, cozy cabins, and convenient vacation rental units. Providing visitors to the charming village of Kaslo, BC with a relaxing home away from home on the shores of Kootenay Lake, this tranquil property is difficult to leave!

We were delighted to provide Kaslo Motel with a fresh, new website that conveys a welcoming stay experience and makes online bookings a breeze.

A Simple, Modern Design for a Relaxing, No-Fuss Stay Experience

The new website embraces a modern, clean design with plenty of white space, polished photography, and subtle animated effects—a combination that conveys a vibrant, smooth, trustworthy experience both online and at the property itself.

The full-screen hero slideshow greets visitors to the homepage, immediately setting the scene with images of the picturesque lakeside village and an inviting guest room. An immersive yet brief introduction like this inspires visitors to scroll for more.

Animated effects such as parallax scrolling, fly-in elements, and hover effects breathe energy into the site, not only creating depth and visual interest, but conveying relevance and professionalism.

Overlaid on the hero slider, a streamlined booking widget sits prominently yet unobtrusively above the fold, demonstrating a convenient, modern booking process. But no matter where on the site visitors are, online bookings are just a single click away via the Book Now button in the header of every page.

Consistent branding between the website and booking engine further builds trust and drives conversions.

The website’s intuitive navigation guides visitors along the path to purchase via a simple horizontal menu on desktop and hamburger menu on mobile as well as clear calls to action throughout the site. Uncomplicated menu options deliver all that prospective guests want to know, whether exploring accommodation choices or nearby things to do.

Accommodation pages feature unit slideshows along with descriptions, amenity lists, and convenient unit-specific booking buttons—making it quick and easy for prospective guests to check availability and reserve their preferred room.

A simple, modern website theme like this one translates seamlessly to mobile. Built with responsive design, both the website and online booking engine automatically adapt layout and navigation to the screen they’re being viewed on for an optimal user experience across all devices.

On the back-end, the site is just as user friendly. The intuitive content management system (CMS) makes it easy for the Kaslo Motel team to update content and monitor performance themselves, giving them control over their own website to keep it current and effective. Of course, our friendly design team is only a phone call or email away if support is needed.

A modern, easy-to-use website complete with online bookings is absolutely essential in today’s competitive hospitality market. If yours isn’t generating conversions, it might be time for a redesign to revitalize your property’s brand.
