Year: 2026
Type: article
Abstract: The rapid advancement of internet technologies has significantly transformed the tourism and hospitality industry. Online travel platforms have become essential tools for travelers to discover accommodation options quickly and efficiently. These platforms provide users with detailed information about properties, including location, price, and visual representation, enabling informed decision-making. This research paper presents XploreStays, a web-based travel accommodation listing platform designed to simplify the process of exploring and managing travel stays. The platform enables users to browse multiple property listings through a structured and user-friendly interface. Each listing contains essential information such as property images, location details, and pricing information, allowing users to compare different accommodation options. The system integrates a user authentication module that supports login and signup functionality, ensuring secure access to the platform. In addition, the application includes a dynamic pricing system that calculates the total cost of a stay by incorporating taxes and service fees. These features enhance transparency and improve the overall user experience. The architecture of the platform follows a layered web application model consisting of presentation, application, and data layers. The system is implemented using modern web technologies including HTML, CSS, JavaScript, Node.js, Express.js, and MongoDB. Cloud deployment is used to ensure accessibility and scalability. The results demonstrate that the proposed platform provides an efficient and scalable solution for accommodation listing systems. The architecture and design can serve as a foundation for future development of advanced travel platforms that may include booking systems, payment gateways, and user review modules.
