Vacation rental website example

A vacation rental website has to show each home or room honestly, answer practical questions before a guest asks, and make it easy to send an enquiry for their dates. This sample does all three for Driftwood Stays, a fictional rental business: AI Web Maker built its 5 pages in 45 seconds.

Driftwood Stays is a fictional vacation rental: its people, reviews, prices and contact details are made up.

Everything on the sample is real output of the builder. We described a business letting furnished homes and cabins to holidaymakers by the night or week, and it planned the pages, wrote the words, chose the photos and added an enquiry form. Nothing was edited by hand, so what you see is what an owner gets before making it their own.

Open the live sample to click through it as a guest planning a trip would. Its forms run in demo mode, so nothing is sent, and every property detail, review and contact detail on it is invented.

How was this sample built?

AI Web Maker built the sample from a two sentence description of the business, the same way it builds a website for an owner. The numbers below are from that build.

What does a vacation rental website need?

Rooms and homes that are easy to compare

Guests usually decide between options before they decide on a business, so each home, cabin or room needs its own clear description. The sample opens its homepage with a "Choose your room" section and gives the Rooms page a "Compare your options" section, so a guest can weigh them up side by side without opening a dozen pages.

A simple way to ask for dates

A guest who has to hunt for a contact method often gives up. The sample puts "Tell us when you'd like to come" on the homepage and an enquiry form on the Contact page, and a button to reach it ends most pages. This sample takes enquiries rather than live bookings, so a real owner should say on the form how soon a guest will hear back and when dates are actually confirmed.

Check-in, check-out and house information

Most questions a guest sends are practical ones: when can we arrive, when must we leave, what are the house rules. The sample answers them on The Stay page, with a "Check-in and check-out" section and a "Practical house information" section. A real website should add the exact times, rules and any deposit or cancellation terms, and keep them in step with every other place the property is listed.

Facilities and extras spelled out

Guests want to know what is included before they pay for it. The sample lists shared facilities and services, then separates them from optional add-ons, so nobody is surprised by what costs extra. On a real website, state which extras carry a charge and how to ask for them.

The area and the best time to visit

People book a place as much as a property. The sample has an Area page with "Finding us" and "When to visit" sections, plus a homepage section about being a good base for the coast. A real website should describe the actual surroundings, how to get there and which seasons suit which kind of trip.

Real photos and real reviews

Photos and reviews are what guests trust most, and they only work when they are honest. The sample's reviews are labelled as examples because the business is invented. A real owner should use photos of the actual rooms and views, and show reviews from guests who really stayed, with their permission.

Contact details and a way to be found

Guests need an address or area, a way to get in touch directly and a clear reply route. The sample has a "Get in touch directly" section on the Contact page. To be found by people searching for stays in your area, keep the name, location and details the same everywhere the property appears; the vacation rental SEO guide below covers the rest.

Get your vacation rental website found

A vacation rental website only brings guests when people searching for a stay can find it. We checked every page of the sample with the same checks our AI Website SEO Tools run on any website.

  • ✗Every page has its own search title of 20 to 70 characters (3 of 5 pages)
  • ✓Every page has a search description of 60 to 180 characters (5 of 5 pages)
  • ✓Every page has exactly one main heading (H1) (5 of 5 pages)
  • ✓Every page is organised under section headings (H2) (5 of 5 pages)
  • ✓Every image has alternative text (5 of 5 pages, 0 of 8 images without it)
  • ✓Every page is set up for phones (viewport) (5 of 5 pages)
  • ✓Every page declares its language (5 of 5 pages)
  • ✓Every page links to at least three other pages of the site (5 of 5 pages)
  • ✓Every page is a light download (under 400 KB of HTML) (5 of 5 pages)

The sample is kept out of search results on purpose (it is a made-up business), and its business schema is removed for the same reason, so those two checks are left out.

Frequently asked questions

What pages should a vacation rental website have?

Most rental businesses need a homepage, a page for rooms or homes, a page about the stay with check-in details and facilities, an area page and a contact page with an enquiry form. The sample has exactly these, with a review section and a dates enquiry on its homepage.

How long does it take to build a vacation rental website with AI Web Maker?

This sample took 45 seconds to go from a short description to a finished website. An owner then adds their real properties, photos, rates and house rules in the editor and previews everything before going live.

How much does a vacation rental website cost with AI Web Maker?

Building and previewing a website cost nothing. Going live costs $119 a year of hosting, and the domain name is paid separately. Optional AI work, such as extra blog posts, is paid with credits of about $0.65 each.

Can guests book online on this sample?

No. The sample uses an enquiry form: a guest says when they would like to come and the business replies. The form runs in demo mode here, so nothing is sent. A real owner should explain on the form how replies and confirmation work.

Is Driftwood Stays a real business?

No. Driftwood Stays is a fictional business made to show what a vacation rental website built with AI Web Maker looks like. Its properties, reviews and contact details are invented, and the sample itself is kept out of search results.
