🏨 Hotel & Tourism Website — Malta
Tourism is the backbone of Malta's GDP, yet properties across Valletta, Sliema, St. Julian's and Gozo bleed 15-25% commission to Booking.com, Expedia and TripAdvisor. Direct bookings through your own website are the single biggest margin lever. ZunaPro builds Malta hotel sites that bundle Malta Tourism Authority (MTA) licence display, multilingual content (EN/MT/IT/DE/FR) and direct payment integration into one panel.
Why Your Malta Property Needs Its Own Site
- MTA licence transparency: Your Malta Tourism Authority licence number and category (hotel, guesthouse, holiday furnished premises) must be visible in the footer — vital for guest trust and inspections.
- Escape OTA commission: Booking and Expedia charge 15-25%; direct bookings can lift your margin by up to 20%.
- GDPR + Cap 586 compliance: Under the Maltese Data Protection Act guest data, passport scans and eCheck-in details must be encrypted at rest.
- English-first, Maltese optional: Business language is English; Maltese content builds local trust. German and Italian translations are essential for inbound tourists.
- Google + TripAdvisor leverage: Word-of-mouth is huge in a small market; live review feeds and schema markup multiply organic traffic.
- Seasonality control: Dynamic pricing for April-October peak; off-season landing pages for Gozo retreats and diving packages.
