Webdesign für Ferienhäuser & Ferienwohnungen: Beispiel Villa Margherita

How the project was implemented

For the Villa Margherita in Badolato, southern Italy, a complete web design concept was developed—from the content structure through to the final launch. The goal was to present the holiday home in an authentic yet high-end way, with a focus on user-friendliness, performance, and search engine visibility.

The design is based on the owner’s private photos, which were prepared and integrated in a way that conveys a natural, warm atmosphere while still looking professional.

Implemented with a focus on:

  • WordPress web design for holiday homes & holiday apartments—visually appealing, clearly structured, and mobile-optimised
  • WordPress with Elementor Pro—custom design for holiday properties and hosts
  • Integration of an external booking calendar—seamlessly embedded in the design for easy availability display
  • SEO baseline setup & PageSpeed optimisation—clean structure, fast loading times, and local visibility
  • Hosting & technical support—smooth operation and regular maintenance

The result: A personal, professional website that builds trust and conveys a holiday feel—an all-round cohesive web design for holiday home landlords.

The website may have a different design today.

Hourly Rates and Booking Options

Billing by Hourly Rate

Hourly billing reflects the actual effort 1:1 and can be more cost-effective, as a buffer and one revision round are usually included in a fixed price. The time billed is that which cannot be spent on other clients (i.e., including communication, but naturally excluding accounting).

If you choose this billing method, I will gladly provide you with an estimate, we can agree on limits or budgets, and I can inform you of the current status at any time. Billing is per started quarter hour and on a monthly basis.

Activity Hourly Rate
WordPress Web Design / Website Creation 80 € zzgl. Steuer
WordPress Administration & Support (after launch) 80 € zzgl. Steuer
SEO Analyses & Measures 140 € zzgl. Steuer

We can also agree on a fixed price for your website. This is based on an estimate of the corresponding effort and includes 1 hour of meeting for discussion and one revision round per submitted draft. Further revision rounds will be billed at the hourly rate (see above).

To minimize revision rounds, it is helpful if you have already researched positive examples of your desired web design and prepared the content.
