Senior Full-Stack Developer Needed to Build a Luxury Direct Booking Platform for Hospitality Brand

# About Beyond The BNB Beyond The BNB is a luxury hospitality company based in Miami, Florida. We specialize in premium vacation homes, approved private events, and concierge experiences. Our goal is to become the premier luxury direct-booking hospitality brand in Miami. Unlike traditional vacation rental companies, we focus on creating unforgettable guest experiences through uniquely themed homes, concierge services, and professionally managed private events. Current properties include: • House of Celebrations • House of Legends • House of Art • House of Music • House of Italy --- # Project Overview I'm looking for an experienced full-stack developer (or a small development team) to build a modern, scalable direct-booking platform from the ground up. This is **not** a WordPress website. This is **not** a Shopify project. This is **not** a template website. This is a custom web application that will become the foundation of our business for years to come. The overall design direction should be inspired by Luxuri.com, Airbnb Luxe, and premium hospitality brands, while being completely customized for Beyond The BNB. --- # What Needs To Be Built The platform should include: • Luxury marketing website • Individual property pages • Responsive mobile experience • Property galleries • Availability calendar • Custom booking flow • Dynamic pricing • Stripe payment integration • Rental agreement workflow • Guest accounts • Concierge add-on services • Event inquiry workflow • Lead capture • Contact forms • Admin dashboard • Reservation management • Blackout dates • Pricing management • Property management tools • CRM functionality • Email notifications • Booking confirmations --- # Future Features This project should be built with scalability in mind. Future phases may include: • Owner portal • Automated messaging • Mobile application • AI concierge • Analytics dashboard • Revenue reporting • Multi-property management • Additional markets outside Miami --- # Ideal Candidate I'm looking for someone who thinks like a product builder rather than simply completing development tasks. You should have experience building: • SaaS platforms • Booking systems • Hospitality software • Marketplace applications • Travel websites • Subscription platforms • Modern web applications Experience with React, Next.js, TypeScript, Node.js, PostgreSQL, Supabase, Stripe, REST APIs, and modern UI/UX is strongly preferred. Experience building luxury consumer products is a major advantage. --- # Design Expectations The website should feel premium, cinematic, modern, elegant, and highly visual. Think: • Luxuri.com • Airbnb Luxe • Four Seasons Private Retreats The experience should prioritize luxury photography, smooth animations, clean typography, generous whitespace, and exceptional user experience. Guests should feel like they are booking an experience—not simply renting a house. --- # Communication Clear communication is extremely important. I want someone who can make recommendations, challenge ideas when appropriate, and help build an exceptional product—not simply execute instructions. Please include examples of similar projects you have personally built. If you've worked on booking platforms, hospitality software, marketplaces, travel websites, or SaaS products, please include links. I'm looking for a long-term development partner, not someone who is only interested in a quick project.
