Challenge
Three boutique hotels under one owner relied on Booking.com taking 18% commission per stay. They wanted unified direct-booking sites with shared inventory and brand-specific themes.
Solution
Built a WordPress Multisite network with a shared booking core (custom plugin using WP REST API), ACF-driven content blocks for the marketing team, Stripe Connect so each property gets paid directly, multilingual content with WPML, and Cloudflare edge caching.

Direct bookings up 22% in the first season — that's ~$45k/year saved on Booking.com commission. Pays for the project many times over.
