Repeat client work, this time the brief was a bit more specific. Client's original site had done it's work, but his body of work has grown to an extent now that the site needed a refresh. This time the client wanted a more obvious theme, and as their books are based around a flooded world then the theme was a no brainer. Getting the precise palette for the above sea elements was difficult and we went through a good number of iterations to get it right. It's amazing how if you make the sky too deep or add too much purple then the sea with these colours starts taking on a Disney look and feel! Definitely not what was wanted.

Reflections Boutique Hotel - Website URL
(https://reflectionsonrarotonga.com/)
Introduction
Reflections on Rarotonga is a sister property to Rumours Luxury Villas in Muri Lagoon. This intimate, wellness-focused retreat offers the same exceptional luxury and privacy that defines the Rumours experience.
The Challenge
The resort needed a digital presence that matched their luxury positioning and the quality of their sister property. An outdated website that didn't capture the luxury experience, slow mobile load times affecting guest experience, and a need for consistency with Rumours brand standards.
The Solution
I built a modern website that matches the quality and aesthetic of their sister property Rumours: a custom Node.js build with fast load times, a mobile-first design capturing the luxury resort aesthetic, SEO targeting high-intent travel keywords, and branding consistent with Rumours Luxury Villas.
The Result
The new website delivers a cohesive luxury experience that aligns perfectly with the Rumours brand while highlighting Reflections' unique wellness-focused offerings.
