Above The Tide Motel

Context

Above The Tide Motel is a motel property in Canada. We built its public website and the property management system (PMS) behind it, live now at abovetidemotel.ca.

The Problem

A motel needs two things that usually get built separately: a page that sells the room, and a back office that knows which rooms are actually free on a given night. When those two are built as separate tools, someone ends up reconciling them by hand, checking a booking form against a paper calendar or a second system. Above The Tide needed a public site and a reservation system that shared the same data, not two systems that could quietly disagree with each other.

Constraints

• Single-property operation, not a hotel chain, so the PMS needed to fit how a small team actually works day to day rather than an enterprise hotel group's workflow.
• The public-facing site and the internal booking system needed to ship as one connected build, not a marketing site with a third-party booking widget bolted on afterward.

What We Built

We built a marketing landing page paired with a PMS that handles booking intake and reservation management from the same underlying system. A guest books from the public site; the motel manages availability, rates, and reservations from that same data, instead of updating two separate places and hoping they match.

This work falls under our Web App Development service.

Outcome

The site and reservation system are live now at abovetidemotel.ca.
