Do you have a desired website screen size?
the website need to fit to both computers and smartphones, ipads etc
if possible be a so called "responsive web site" with fluid layouts instead of fixed width, allowing the site to easily be viewed across multiple screens sizes and devices.
How many pages (maximum of 4) do you need designed?
If you could give us the basic design or template with all possibilities there, show us how to do the few fisrt pages, then we will add the rest of the pages our self, we can do the most of the text and descriptions adding photos etc etc our selfs. as long as you do it possible for us. We have looked long an wide after a template we like, but if they are beautiful and arty, they miss possibilities to interact with face book and tripadvisor or letting guest comment, if they have all this quirky interesting functions, they look to trendy, industrial and do not fit to our old and history filled Zanzibari house

The design, look and feel of it should reflect us and the design of the hotel, and preferable not look as a standard WordPress template.
The specs: Fusing a restored nineteenth-century Swahili sultans palace and Zanzibars first photographic studio, this multi-storied small hotel has an inner courtyard, twelve unique antiques-filled rooms, and one of Zanzibars best restaurants.
The look: Romantic, with blue-, pink-, and violet-painted walls, rich textiles, deep baths, and high beds.
The experience: The Stone Town location means youre surrounded by the sounds and smells of local life, but well-traveled gueststhe list includes Matt Dillon and Juliette Binocheembrace the feast for all senses and are not bothered by the lack of conventional amenities such as minibars and television. All suites have verandas, and each is so intriguingly decorated that there is no cause for the room envy typical of many converted courtyard houses.
What content must be included in the website design?
It needs quick links to FB & TA, and posibility to add their badgets and widgets etc it need to have pages for each room (with photos, video & music of the room for those who likes), and a restaurant page, (where we can post daily menus and guests can rate us). a page for the hotel in general, integrate a customized google map of stonetown, have pages for excursions, about us, contacts, rates, fact sheet, etc. a normal photo gallery, and a gallery with high res marketing photos, and other info (reached by invitation only). a page where guests can leave guest comments and give coming guests tips them self, a blog, links to all our online publicity or articles written about us, or what we support, etc. Be both very informative and fast for those who looks for quick information but also have plenty of stuff for those that like to dream away a cold winter night planing next holiday
Do you have additional requirements or links you want to share?
It should be made in away so you fast can get the information you need on a slow connection, but if you have time on hand and a fast connection can look at photos, videos, listen to the music chosen for the room and or etc..
We should be able to extend and build on the the website our selfs using the template you made
