Introduction
Your Digital Compendium’s Content Items are where you can showcase everything your property has to offer, from restaurants and spa services to local attractions and special experiences. Each item can include detailed descriptions, pricing, booking links, and even guest-specific visibility settings.
This section walks you through how to create and customize Content Items, including setting categories, adding images and icons, and choosing display layouts that best highlight your property’s offerings.
Go to Virtual Front Desk → Digital Compendium.
Here, you can create Content Items to highlight your property’s offerings such as restaurants, spa and wellness facilities, nearby trails, or any other information your guests may find helpful.
When creating a Content Item, you can include the following details:
