For over 15 years, The Terrace has been a trusted accommodation choice in East London’s peaceful suburb of Nahoon. Known for its warm hospitality, modern amenities, and unbeatable location just minutes from Nahoon Beach, the guesthouse has built a reputation for comfort and reliability among both business travellers and holidaymakers. Today, The Terrace takes another step forward — with the launch of its newly redesigned website, developed in partnership with New Perspective Design, a leading website design agency in South Africa.
Why the Change Was Needed
The Terrace’s previous website had served its purpose for many years, but being built on an older Drupal system, it was no longer mobile responsive, nor did it reflect the sleek, modern look that today’s online visitors expect. With more than half of all users browsing and booking via mobile, it became essential to move away from outdated design and upgrade to a modern CMS (Content Management System) that delivers both functionality and style.
A Modern, Sleek Website
The new website embraces a clean, user-friendly design that captures the relaxed coastal atmosphere of The Terrace. Visitors can now explore room options, amenities, and location highlights with ease, no matter the device they use. The interface is streamlined, visuals are high quality, and navigation is intuitive — ensuring that potential guests find exactly what they’re looking for in just a few clicks.
Key upgrades include:
- Mobile Responsiveness: A design that looks and works seamlessly on smartphones, tablets, and desktops.
- Modern CMS: Built on WordPress, the new platform is faster, more secure, and easy to update.
- Visual Storytelling: High-quality images showcase the guesthouse and surrounding attractions, bringing the Nahoon Beach lifestyle to life.
- Simple Navigation: Guests can quickly access booking information, contact details, and local highlights.
SEO for Better Conversions
A beautiful website is only part of the solution. For The Terrace, visibility matters. That’s why New Perspective Design integrated SEO (Search Engine Optimization) into the redesign from the ground up. The site has been carefully structured with keyword-rich content, meta descriptions, and page optimization aimed at attracting the right audience — travellers searching for accommodation near Nahoon Beach, East London, or business lodging in South Africa.
This SEO-focused approach ensures that:
- Search rankings improve, putting The Terrace in front of more potential guests.
- User experience is enhanced, as visitors can find information quickly.
- Conversion rates increase, turning visitors into booked guests.
Partnering with New Perspective Design
Based in South Africa, New Perspective Design specializes in creating websites that balance creativity, functionality, and measurable results. For The Terrace, this meant more than just a digital facelift — it was about aligning the brand’s online presence with the same level of quality and professionalism that guests experience when they stay.
Juan Preuyt, founder of New Perspective Design, explains:
“The Terrace already had a strong reputation as a guesthouse, but their website wasn’t showcasing their full potential. We focused on creating a sleek, modern design with strong SEO foundations so that the website doesn’t just look good — it works hard behind the scenes to bring in more bookings.”
A New Chapter for The Terrace
With its new website, The Terrace is ready to welcome a digital generation of travellers. The sleek design, modern CMS, and SEO-driven structure mean that whether guests find them through Google searches or direct recommendations, their online journey will be as smooth as their stay in Nahoon.
For those seeking relaxed accommodation near Nahoon Beach, the updated website now provides an inviting first impression and a reliable platform to explore everything The Terrace has to offer.
