Web design in Playa Macao

A reef-break beach east of La Romana that has become a weekend destination in its own right, with surf in the morning, a beach bar scene, camping and a lot of day-trippers from the capital. We build Playa Macao sites for the surf lodges, the bars, the camps and the food businesses that serve a crowd which is mostly Dominican.

We work with businesses across Playa Macao on the whole range — brand-new websites, rebuilds of sites that stopped working, online shops, and the ongoing care that keeps everything secure and up to date. Every project is built by hand rather than assembled from a template, because a template is the clearest possible sign a site was never designed for the business using it.

Most of the Playa Macao businesses we work with are surf lodges and small hotels, beach bars and restaurants, camping and glamping, ATV and buggy rental, water sports and surf schools, local food and fish businesses, and party and excursion services. Whatever your trade, the pattern is the same: the site has to load quickly on a phone, say what you do within a few seconds, and give someone an obvious way to make contact.

Playa Macao is a Sunday car trip for half the capital, which means a young Dominican crowd and a very different customer from a resort strip. The site has to work in Spanish first, load fast on a phone in bright sun, and get somebody there by lunchtime.
