About this template
A re-engagement email for hotel groups, resorts and holiday rentals to send to past guests who have not booked in a while. It does not ask why they left. It reminds them of the view.
A full width photo of a sea view balcony carries the headline and a short personal line in live text, with a white button to plan a stay. A heading introduces three stays for the season, shown as a product grid with square photos, the stay name, the price for two nights and the regular price struck through. A code box adds a welcome back discount, and a final button leads to the booking page. The footer closes the email.
Sand, white and deep sea blue keep it light, calm and coastal, with an elegant serif for headings.
Change the three stays and prices by season and trigger it about a year after the last checkout.
