Lido — the beach club theme

Free theme

Your beach, seen from above

Umbrellas, sunbeds, the restaurant and the evenings: show the season at a glance and let people book their spot in a tap.

Four ready palettes: Riviera, Lounge, Sunset and Lagoon.

Lido

Made for the summer

Everything a beach club needs

Every part is an ordinary block with a Lido class, so the site stays easy to change.

Aerial opening

A photo of the beach that fills the opening, with a single Book now pill and a transparent header.

Price lists

Tables of umbrellas and sunbeds by period, with a sea-colored header row.

Season promos

Boxes with a photo, a title, a big price and a button, for the offers of the season.

Events

Event cards with the date on the corner of the photo: aperitifs, concerts, parties.

Book from the phone

The Book now button can stay at the bottom of the screen on phones, next to WhatsApp.

Helps your AI assistant

The theme explains its styles to the AI assistants connected to your site, so they write pages that fit.

Can people book a spot online?

Can I change the colors?

Other themes and plugins

Agenda

Online appointments, simple for you and your customers: a short wizard makes your booking page in two minutes. Customers pick a service, a day and a free time, on computer or phone, and get the confirmation by email with the calendar file, a reminder the day before and a link to cancel or move, no account needed. Never two bookings on the same place, groups with places, approval if you want it, an admin calendar by day, week or month, CSV export. Imports from Simply Schedule Appointments and Booking Calendar. Free up to 30 bookings in total (past and cancelled ones count, imported ones don't); Agenda Pro, coming soon, takes as many as you need.

Diorama

Sliders and hero sections, quick to make and light on your pages: pick your photos, write a title and a button, done; or place headings, texts, buttons, images and icons on the slide, with a layout for each device. Entrance effects, transitions, video backgrounds, Ken Burns, ten ready-made templates and the latest blog posts as slides. Accessible by default, responsive images, no layout shift, a tiny script only where a slider is. A block, a Fresco widget and a shortcode. One slider per site; Diorama Pro adds more.

Click to Chat

A WhatsApp button on every page, with a chat window, a QR code for computers, per-page numbers and messages, a button block and a click counter. Based on Joinchat.
