A luxury homestay website, built to turn visitors into bookings
VRS Homestay is a family business in Mayiladuthurai with a legacy going back to 1989. They asked us to build their website from scratch. We designed and built a dark, gold-accented site that shows the houses properly and makes booking a two-tap job.

The challenge
What the site needed to do
VRS came to us to build their homestay website from scratch. The site had to carry a family legacy that goes back to 1989, show the houses the way a guest would want to see them, and feel as premium as the stay itself.
- Show the houses and interiors the way a guest would want to see them
- Make booking easy from a phone
- Answer the questions guests ask before booking: amenities, house rules, location
- Give travellers a reason to choose Mayiladuthurai, not just a room
The solution
What we built
Booking in two taps
"Book Now" opens WhatsApp with the message already written. For guests who prefer a form, the Contact page takes check-in and check-out dates and the number of guests.
A gallery guests can filter
Interior photos sorted by bedrooms, living areas, kitchen, bathrooms and entrance, so visitors find what they care about quickly.
The house, in detail
A residences page with an image slider, room and bathroom counts, floor area, house rules and safety information.
Amenities and FAQ
Twelve amenities laid out plainly, from air-conditioned bedrooms to private parking, plus an FAQ on the home and contact pages.
A local travel guide
A Tourist Places page covering the Mayuranathar Temple and nine other destinations nearby. The Contact page shows the homestay on a map.
