Before/after comparison of the primary navigation. Nine items on the live site reduced to five + Book Now CTA. Suites becomes a parent with a hover/click dropdown revealing two children (The Suites + Compare Suites) — amended 2026-06-09. Desktop and mobile renders shown.
Section 1 — Item-by-item comparison
Section 2 — Desktop nav (live render, locked design tokens)
Section 3 — Mobile nav (expanded state)
Sticky mobile bar (CO #2, already approved) sits at bottom of screen — separate from the hamburger menu above.

Compare Suites
|
Kept — dropdown child under Suites | 2026-06-09 amendment: stays as its own page at /compare-suites/ with own meta + own schema. Promoted from in-page section to dropdown child under Suites parent. No redirect needed (URL preserved). |
|
The House
|
Content → Suites intro | "About the property" content becomes the intro section of the Suites page. Guests naturally read it before choosing a suite. 301 redirect /the-house/ → /the-suites/. |
|
Gallery
|
Dissolved | Photos are integrated into each page (Discover, Suites, homepage). A standalone gallery page adds no SEO or AEO value and dilutes link equity. No redirect needed if page has no inbound links; otherwise 301 → /the-suites/. |
|
Special Offers
|
→ Footer link | Footer "Stay" column link only. Keeps it accessible without nav clutter. Page retained for direct traffic and OTA/partner links. 301 only if URL changes. |
|
About / Vivere Hospitality Group
|
→ Footer link | Brand story is woven into homepage copy and site-wide voice. No dedicated nav item needed. Footer link handles guests who seek it. 301 only if URL changes. |
|
Contact Us
|
Renamed → Contact | Becomes a new dedicated page at /contact/ (form previously lived on /experience/). 301 redirect /contact-us/ → /contact/. |
