NUZHAH
Airbnb Like App
Developed by Space-O
This is like an Airbnb clone app that mainly focuses on chalet bookings. The most unique feature of this app is the 360° VR tour. Most hotel booking apps show a glimpse of the hotel rooms and sometimes lobby. We took this a notch up. How? Well, our developers have integrated a feature that allows the guests to have a virtual tour of the property before they book a chalet. This makes this app one of a kind.
This app comes in two variants: Nuzhah for guests and Nuzhah for hosts. Guests can browse, take tours, view reviews and handle bookings all in one place. Hosts, on the other hand, can submit property, manage bookings, cancellations, earnings and even the availability of their chalets. Here are some of the key features of this app:
Some of the key features of this app
