About Studio S.

Why Studio S. exists

I built my first direct-booking website in 2024 for my own apartment. Not out of entrepreneurial ambition. Out of fatigue. I was tired of seeing 15.5% of every booking go to Airbnb, with no added value in return. No customer file. No direct relationship with my guests. No way to build loyalty.

When the website actually worked — really worked, with 30% of bookings switching to direct — host friends asked me to build them the same. Then friends of friends. Then strangers on LinkedIn.

Studio S. isn't an agency. It's a solo studio that ships websites the way you do a favor to a friend. No contract, no cargo cult, no dashboard with 200 KPIs.

What we believe

A website isn't a deliverable. It's an asset.
It belongs to its owner, lives on their GitHub, and keeps working even if Studio S. disappears tomorrow.

Custom is faster than templates.
When you know your craft, customizing a one-pager takes 7 days. A misconfigured Wix template takes 3 months of patches.

€490 is a fair price, not a niche price.
We don't break the market. We remove the middleman's margin.

Silence is a feature.
Once the site is live, we don't spam you with newsletters, upsells or "how are you" emails. If you want to talk to us, you know where to find us.

Who is it for?

For owners in Paris, Cannes, Tel Aviv or Tulum who understand one simple thing: their property is unique, their website should be too.
