We were contacted by one of our regular clients in the Netherlands with a task to update their website. One of the client's businesses is booking boat rentals for recreation and walks along the canals of Amsterdam.
The main problem was the lack of adaptability of the website's pages for correct display on mobile devices and modern high-resolution screens. Among other issues was a low-functional administrative part of the site that did not provide convenient tools for managing orders, a convenient calendar of already booked boats, without the ability to easily close individual days or remove individual boats from the rental due to maintenance.
The biggest challenge in implementing the project was to maintain the style and appearance of the ordering process. This was a prerequisite because most customers are regular and adding inconvenience to them was the biggest pain point for the customer. While maintaining the old style, it was necessary to add adaptability to the information pages and, most importantly, to the boat booking process. The booking process itself included, in addition to choosing the number of boats, the choice of the number of life jackets (adult and children), additional services, insurance, etc.
What was implemented on the website:
The first customer greeting on the website looks like this: "Welcome to Sloep huren | Groene Hart Sloepverhuur | Bootje huren | Dagje uit - your faithful partner in creating unforgettable moments on Amsterdam's magical canals! Our site specializes in providing the highest quality and most comfortable boats for riding to make your mystical discovery of Amsterdam even more enjoyable." You can order a website for any type of business right now - leave a request to our specialists.
Thanks to our air temperature widget, travelers or tourists can easily keep track of the weather conditions during their trip. It provides up-to-date information about the temperature, helping to set the mood for a comfortable stay.
The Datapicker widget was designed in a minimalist style, allowing users to select a date for travel, providing a convenient and aesthetic experience when booking.
Also, a custom stylish design of a selector for choosing the number of people who will enjoy the vivid Dutch landscapes was integrated. The number of boats directly depends on the number of people who make a reservation. Any change in the reservation date, number of boats, and additional equipment for them is displayed in a window directly on the reservation page, which greatly simplifies the user experience.
An additional modal window for groups with more than 21 people has special fields where you can select 3 different preferred dates for a magical adventure. You can order a website that will fully meet your requirements and expectations.
The information pages show which neighborhoods and canals you can walk along. There is a link to a page with a map and a legend.
The page also contains information about additional boat equipment, prices, rules of use, etc. There is a page with contacts and a photo gallery that will be filled with photos of travelers. In our company, you can order a website that will fully meet your requirements and expectations.
The design is based on the Laptops template with adjustments by our coder. You can see the project on the Portfolio page https://solomono.net/uk/portfolio.html. Communication with the customer was carried out through the TRELLO board.
