Business Challenges
1. Disjointed Destination Information
Visitors needed to visit many sites to get information on accommodations, attractions, restaurants, activities, and local tips for traveling. There was a need for a destination platform that would gather this information.
2. Managing Two Destinations
Aruba and Curaçao had to have their own destination content, but the same website experience should be maintained. It was a challenge to manage information independently without replicating development efforts.
3. Multi-Language Travel Content
The platform had to cater to visitors who speak either English or Dutch. It was a challenge to manage the destination content in multiple languages while preserving the consistency of the user experience.
4. Limited Activity Booking Experience
There was a need for travelers to discover the available activities and to make bookings easily. Integrating the external booking system while keeping the experience on the website smooth was necessary.
5. Engaging Travelers Using Multiple Content Types
Travel information had to be provided using articles, blogs, videos, magazines, listings, and coupons. There was a need to structure multiple content types on the platform.
