The problem

OTAs owned demand — the direct site under-converted because rooms, offers, and book paths were harder than Booking.

Weak direct book CTA
Room storytelling thin
Mobile checkout friction
Offer clarity gaps

The solution

We rebuilt direct booking journeys, room proof, and offer clarity so direct stayed competitive.
