Just a few minutes from the medieval city of Sirmione on the Garda Lake, Villa Cortine is an elegant building retaining its original 19th-century charm. Guests can savour Mediterranean flavours in its three restaurants and cocktail bar, relax by the pool, stroll through the vast gardens and sunbathe on the 500 m² private jetty.
Why it matters: Their experience with Blastness shows that working with a partner—not just a technology provider—makes all the difference, offering full support in the complex management of online distribution, streamlining processes, reducing risks, and enhancing the overall guest experience.
  • Thanks to the contribution of Pay Per Click campaigns and a graphical interface redesigned from scratch in form and content, the site quadrupled its production and is now the leading online sales channel.

Top 3 Core Objectives: Villa Cortine sought to optimise revenue, boost direct bookings, and gain full control over performance data. By addressing fluctuating occupancy, high commission costs, and scattered information, the villa aimed to create a more efficient, profitable, and guest-focused operation.
  • Increasing RevPAR: Villa Cortine wanted to implement strategies that optimise rates and room utilisation, ensuring maximum revenue without compromising the guest experience.

  • Increasing direct sales: The property aimed to reduce reliance on third-party platforms, addressing high commission costs and limited guest data, by encouraging more bookings through direct channels and enhancing control over the reservation journey.

  • Monitoring data internally: To overcome scattered information and slow decision-making, Villa Cortine needed a centralised system to track performance in real time, identify trends quickly, and make data-driven adjustments efficiently.
