Engineering Studio Engineering Studio 5-year partnership across 10+ luxury hotels — flagship hospitality build
Domes Resorts is a premium hotel group operating internationally-recognised luxury properties — many under the Marriott Autograph Collection and Hilton brands — across Greece and Portugal. The group includes Michelin-rated restaurants and is consistently among the most awarded names in European luxury hospitality. From January 2018 to 2023, Kukarika served as Domes’ core technology partner: designing, building, hosting, and supporting the digital ecosystem behind every property. What started with the Domes of Elounda website grew into a portfolio of 10+ hotel sites, a unified central group platform at domesresorts.com, a WordPress Multisite consolidation, and a dedicated QR-menu + reservations platform for restaurants and activities. At its peak the network served an average of 600K visits per month across four languages.
A growing luxury group with international brand standards (Marriott Autograph Collection, Hilton), multiple properties launching each season, four target markets, and a team that needed to publish brand-perfect content without engineering for every change.
10+ hotel sites plus a central group platform — consistent brand, distinct property identities, shared editorial spine.
Marriott Autograph Collection and Hilton-branded properties, Michelin-rated restaurants, and a long list of luxury awards — every digital touchpoint had to meet global brand standards.
Four languages — English, German, French, Portuguese — across every property.
After several years of growth, managing 10+ standalone WP sites became operationally heavy — shared updates, themes, and plugins were impossible to coordinate.
Hotels needed QR-driven menus, activity bookings, and restaurant reservations that staff could update on-the-fly — especially during COVID restrictions.
600K monthly visits at peak season — performance, security, and hosting all had to be production-grade.
A 5-year technology partnership needed an architecture that could evolve from individual sites to a unified Multisite without disrupting bookings or rankings.
A 5-year, end-to-end engagement covering design partnership, custom WordPress builds for every property, a 2020-2021 Multisite consolidation, a custom QR + restaurant reservations platform, and full hosting + maintenance.
A 5-year flagship partnership that scaled from a single property to a 10+ site multi-brand luxury hospitality platform — at production traffic, in four languages, under international brand standards.
The Domes Resorts partnership stands as one of Kukarika's flagship engagements — a 5-year journey from a single hotel website to a unified, multilingual, multi-brand digital platform serving over half a million monthly visitors across luxury properties in Greece and Portugal. The work spanned design implementation, ground-up builds, an architectural pivot to WordPress Multisite, a COVID-era QR + reservations innovation, and full hosting + maintenance. Completed in 2023, the platform remains a benchmark for what a long-term technology partnership can deliver in the luxury hospitality sector.
