Your property has a unique story to tell. The problem is, third-party booking platforms are telling it for you.

The Waypoint System™

Our 4-phase AI-powered methodology– Signal, Current, Flow, Summit– takes you from brand clarity to full booking automation and optimization in 90 days.

AI + Human Delivery

Human strategy builds the system. AI runs it around the clock. We deploy your chatbot, automation flows, and metasearch, then our team monitors and optimizes every piece while you focus on your guests.

Cinematic Content

Reels, carousels, SEO articles, email campaigns, and influencer stays– all tied directly to direct booking growth, not vanity metrics.

Revenue Accountability

We measure success in direct bookings and recovered OTA commissions– not impressions, followers, or reach. You see exactly what River & Wild generates.

Infinite Stories Told
Built Exclusively For:

River & Wild works exclusively with boutique eco-wellness properties under 50 rooms (glamping operators, yoga and meditation retreats, and eco-lodges) who are done losing 20%+ of every booking to OTA platforms and ready to build a direct booking machine instead.

Glamping Operators

Glamping sites, treehouses, dome resorts, safari tent camps, and luxury cabins losing 40-60% of revenue to Airbnb, VRBO, Hipcamp, etc. We build direct booking machines so you keep what you earn.

Yoga, Meditation & Wellness Retreats

Retreat centers and residential yoga properties that fill through word of mouth but have no system to scale it– no email automation, no chatbot, no direct booking strategy. We build the entire infrastructure.

Eco-Lodges & Eco-Resorts

Skincare, apparel, outdoor, and wellness lifestyle brands that live at the intersection of nature, design, and wellbeing– and want premium creative and content that feel cinematic while still driving sales.
