99 SURF LODGE
-
Simone, owner of 99 SURF LODGE, wanted a clean, sophisticated, and easy to navigate website that focuses on new lodge photos and copy to highlight the all-inclusive or a-la-carte experience. Simone also requested new pages to act as advertisement for the lodge’s future events and retreats.
-
Fresh original copy, scroll animation photos, and an “Experience” page give site visitors a glimpse into their stay at 99 SURF LODGE. Added surf package descriptions on the home page highlight the a la carte or all-inclusive package options, while a new “Events” page displays future retreats and events for visitors to attend.
-
From start to finish, this customized Squarespace website design project, including SEO and domain transfer, took 30 days to complete.
