Project Details:

Stayvia is a modern hospitality and accommodation platform offering a curated collection of luxury stays, vacation rentals, and traveler-focused services. Their brand required a website that feels sleek, intuitive, and highly functional, capable of showcasing properties in an appealing and conversion-driven way.

The goal of this project was to design and build a premium WordPress site using Elementor, enhanced with custom functionalities tailored specifically for property listings, advanced filtering, smooth navigation, and improved user experience. The final result had to be visually polished, mobile-optimized, and easy for the Stayvia team to manage from the WordPress dashboard.

Modern UI/UX Design With Elementor

The first step was crafting a visually engaging interface that matches Stayvia’s sophisticated brand experience.
Key UI/UX improvements included:

  • Clean, modern layout with strong visual hierarchy

  • Elegant typography and a consistent brand-driven color palette

  • Large visual sections to showcase property images

  • Strategic spacing and composition for readability

  • Smooth micro-interactions to increase engagement

Every page was designed using Elementor’s drag-and-drop builder for maximum flexibility and pixel-perfect implementation.

Custom Property Listing Functionality

To support Stayvia’s accommodation catalog, I built a custom property listing architecture including:

  • Custom Post Types (CPT) for property listings

  • Custom fields via ACF for amenities, pricing, location, room details, etc.

  • Dynamic content binding with Elementor templates

  • Responsive grid layouts for browsing multiple properties

This allowed Stayvia to add new accommodations effortlessly without touching any code.

Advanced Search & Filter System

A user looking for a stay needs the ability to narrow down options quickly.
I developed a custom filtering system that included:

  • Search by property type

  • Location-based filtering

  • Amenity and feature filters

  • Price filtering options

  • Instant AJAX-based results (no page reloads)

This improved user experience and increased the chances of booking-related engagement.

Interactive Booking Flow Elements

Although the site showcases listings, it also required tools that help users move closer to booking.
I implemented:

  • “Check Availability” sections

  • Custom date selection UI

  • Inquiry / Booking request forms

  • Integrated property-specific contact options

  • Conditional form fields based on user selections

These steps help users take clear action and reduce confusion during the booking process.

Performance Optimization

Elementor sites can get heavy, so I executed several performance enhancements:

  • Removing unused widgets and CSS

  • Asset optimization using minification and smart loading

  • Lazy-loading all gallery images

  • Preloading above-the-fold content for faster display

  • Database optimization for faster CPT queries

This ensured the website remained fast even with dynamic custom features.

Mobile Responsive Implementation

Most users browse rental properties on mobile, so I:

  • Rebuilt column structures for mobile-first layouts

  • Adjusted font sizes, spacing, and button placement

  • Created mobile-optimized property galleries

  • Ensured filters and search fields work seamlessly on phones

  • Added thumb-friendly UI controls for booking actions

The mobile experience is now intuitive and visually balanced.

Final Outcome

The final Stayvia website delivers a polished and professional digital presence tailored for the hospitality industry. The blend of Elementor design and custom functionality development provides both visual appeal and operational power.

Key Achievements:

  • A fully modernized UI/UX crafted with Elementor

  • Custom property listing system with reusable templates

  • Advanced search and filter functionality

  • Smooth booking-oriented user flow

  • Optimized speed and performance

  • Mobile-optimized layouts

  • Easy backend management for the Stayvia team
