Hilhut is an online platform that enables users to browse and book exclusive vacation homes across Ukraine.
Project scope
When Hilhut came to us with their vision of making vacation home booking in Ukraine effortless and exciting, we knew we were in for a good ride.
They wanted a platform where property owners could list beautiful getaways, and travelers could easily find and book their next escape. Simple idea? Sure. But it needed the right team to make it feel just as smooth as a weekend in the Carpathians.
So we got to work.

Outcome
We designed and built a site that feels light, easy, and intuitive—just like a great vacation should. Owners can register, list their properties, and manage everything from a personal dashboard. Travelers get powerful filters to find exactly what they want, a favorites list to save dream spots, and even a built-in chat to connect directly with hosts.
Every feature was crafted with the Hilhut vibe in mind: clean, personal, and ready for adventure.
Now, with Hilhut up and running, booking a vacation home in Ukraine is easier (and way more fun) than ever. We’re proud to be part of a project that turns wanderlust into weekend plans—with just a few clicks.
Seamless Property Listing System
We created an intuitive flow for homeowners to easily register, list, and manage their vacation properties—no tech skills required.
Advanced Search & Filters
Users can now find their ideal getaway fast, thanks to smart filters for location, type, amenities, and more.
Personalized Dashboards
Both property owners and travelers get their own sleek dashboard to manage listings, bookings, favorites, and communication—all in one place.
Real-Time Chat Functionality
Integrated chat lets guests and hosts connect instantly, ask questions, and build trust before booking.
Favorites & Wishlist Feature
Travelers can save dream spots for later, making trip planning more flexible and fun.
Secure Registration & Booking Flow
A reliable user onboarding and booking system keeps things safe and smooth from start to finish.
Technology
To bring Hilhut to life, we started with Figma and Miro for discovery, collaboration, and rapid prototyping—keeping the user journey front and center.
The site runs on WordPress with flexible ACF blocks for easy content updates, while custom JavaScript and CSS add that extra layer of smooth, interactive magic.
