Hospitality Website Case Study

Café Chagual in Los Molles, Valparaiso, Chile is a charming and cozy café that exudes a rustic and authentic Chilean atmosphere. Calipso Business Development’s CRD (Calipso Rapid Development) team built a website for this café to reflect this aesthetic and provide a seamless online experience for customers.

The design and functionality of their website, https://cafechagual.com/, is a great example of how to effectively showcase a coffee shop online.

The website has a clean and simple layout, with a color scheme that draws inspiration from the natural surroundings of Los Molles. Earthy tones such as brown and green fit well with the theme, and pops of vibrant colors reflect the rich culture of this coastal zone of Chile.

The homepage features a slideshow of beautiful photographs of the delicious products, its menu items, and its location. This will give visitors a taste of what to expect when they visit the café in person. The menu is prominently displayed, with clear images and descriptions of each item. The website also includes an online ordering system for customers who want to place takeout orders. This feature is becoming increasingly important in today’s digital age, as customers demand convenience.

This business has a small area with a sitting room for customers, therefore the focus on this design is to highlight the desire of customers for coffee, ice cream and a variety of baked items. The eye-catching pictures of close up of food are a strategic way to awake the appetite for gourmet food. The Café Chagual website was built by Calipso with an understanding of the business, products, features and how they give their service to the public. In a few seconds, the website acts as a digital business card: attractive, and easy to use.

In terms of functionality, the website is mobile-friendly and easy to navigate. It is also optimized for search engines, making it easy for customers to find when searching for cafés in the area.

The chagual flower, Luma apiculata, is a small tree or shrub that is native to the Mediterranean region of Chile. It is known for its beautiful white flowers and dark red fruit. The chagual flower is not only an important part of the local ecosystem, but it also holds cultural and historical significance for the people of Los Molles. Calipso designed that particular local flower as the café’s logo to create a deep connection with the local culture and ecological surroundings.

For the owners of Café Chagual, the chagual flower represents the connection between their café and the community of Los Molles. The café is not just a place to grab a cup of coffee, but it is also a place where locals can gather to share stories and build relationships. The chagual flower serves as a symbol of this connection, representing the café’s commitment to the community and the region’s rich culture and history.

In conclusion, Café Chagual’s website is a great example of how the Calipso Business Develop CRD team designs and builds highly functioning websites. By incorporating visually pleasing design, and an online and ordering system, the website not only showcases the café but also provides a seamless online experience for customers.
