Project overview

klik.villas was an early villa rental PMS built in Thailand to connect channel management, reservations, listings, accounting, maintenance, owner communication, and day-to-day rental administration.

Context

After working with villa rental websites, Marc Ribail and I saw that many villa rental businesses still ran their economy, reservations, maintenance, and owner workflows in Excel. The next step was to build a complete rental management system for the business behind the rentals, not only the public-facing websites.

My role

My role as a web developer in Thailand was to develop the technical system: the backend logic, the data structure, and integrations that helped villa rental businesses manage property operations and connect with external booking channels.

Technical work

  • Built PMS logic for managing listings, reservations, rental income, expenses, taxes, maintenance, and operational data.
  • Moved villa rental workflows away from spreadsheet-only administration into a dedicated web-based management system.
  • Developed channel-manager style integrations for platforms such as Booking.com, Agoda, and Rentals United.
  • Worked with practical rental business requirements rather than abstract software assumptions.

What made it interesting

  • The project was more system-heavy than the earlier villa rental websites because it had to support a complete PMS workflow.
  • Integrations created the normal problems of external systems: changing formats, operational edge cases, and the need for reliable data flow.
  • The work connected frontend rental visibility with backend economy, administration, and booking-channel workflows.

Relevant today

The case is relevant for customers who need to replace spreadsheets, connect systems, automate property or rental workflows, or build integrations around existing business processes.
