Five-Star Content for a Five-Star Resort – Our Hotel Web Copy for Vila Vita Parc

As travel writers, we have stayed in more than our fair share of hotels. And we are no strangers to writing about them either, whether that be a magazine feature about the experience of staying in a luxury hotel, a blog about vineyard resorts, a press release announcing the launch of a new boutique hotel or even an industry-focused advice piece on creating and maintaining hotel blogs.

Most recently, we were tasked with creating engaging and informative website copy for Vila Vita Parc, a luxury five-star resort in the Algarve, Portugal. Having recently redone their website, Vila Vita Parc were keen to refresh their content, so we got to work ensuring the words on their site did this beautiful beach resort justice. In total, World Words re-worked more than 5,000 words across the Vila Vita Parc website. To give you a taster, we have included just a few short extracts from the final draft below…

Finolhu: A Revival of Classic Beach Chic (A Press Release for Bacall Associates)

Back in March 2016, World Words was approached by the leading public relations agency Bacall Associates. The agency, which bills itself as a ’boutique PR, marketing and sales support agency’ and particularly specialises in the travel sector, required a series of press releases to be written about luxury hotel resorts across Europe and Asia.

Naturally, we were all too happy to help. We wrote five press releases in total, on resorts ranging from AlmaLusa in Lisbon to Dhara Dhevi in Chiang Mai, but one of the first releases to be sent out to press was about Finolhu. A newly-opened property in the Maldives, Finolhu is a beautiful five-star resort that is all about old-school relaxation.

A Dream Amid Sea and Sky – Our Web Copy for Hotel Villa Franca in Positano, Italy

“Perfectly situated on a hill between the craggy cliff tops and the glinting Mediterranean Sea, Hotel Villa Franca is romantic Italy at its most ravishing. With the picturesque cobbled piazzas of Positano and two blissful beaches just steps away, this stylish hilltop retreat offers the chance to check out from reality and absorb the glamor and gorgeousness of the ever-enchanting Amalfi Coast. A cool calm envelops this Italian idyll where bewitching coastal beauty dominates the window views and pines and citrus scent the air.”

So begins our web content for Hotel Villa Franca, a hotel in Positano, Italy. HVF approached us earlier this year to completely re-work their website, making the content throughout inspiring and informative. So we did. We rewrote all of the copy on the website (a total of around 5,000 words, all in US English) and then had our words translated into Italian, French and Spanish by our translation contacts. The paragraph above is the very first thing that visitors read on the homepage, but it’s just the start. We have included several content snippets from the website below…
