Hotel & Hospitality Video Production in Portugal
Brand films for hotels, resorts and boutique properties that convert lookers into guests. Our work for Hotel Casa Palmela delivered a +40% increase in CTR on Booking.com. Bilingual team, all formats included, full usage rights.
The case for video
Why hotels invest in brand films
The experience before arrival
A guest decides whether to book before they set foot on the property. A brand film is the only format that conveys atmosphere, service quality and emotional experience — things a photo gallery cannot.
Differentiation on OTAs
Booking.com and Expedia support video in hotel profiles. Fewer than 20% of properties use it. Hotels that do consistently see higher click-to-book conversion rates.
Content for every channel
A well-produced brand film serves the website, Google Ads, Instagram, email campaigns and trade presentations — for two to three years from a single production investment.

Hotel Casa Palmela
We produced the full brand film and OTA content package for Hotel Casa Palmela, a member of Small Luxury Hotels of the World in Palmela, Portugal. The updated Booking.com profile with the new video content resulted in a +40% increase in click-through rate within the first 60 days of publication.
“Professionalism, availability and transparency throughout the process. When faced with an unexpected situation, the team responded quickly and with commitment. The result met our expectations.”— Hotel Casa Palmela team
Photography & Visual Content
Once Upon Lisboa
We produced the photography and visual content package for Once Upon Lisboa, a boutique property in the heart of Lisbon's historic centre. The project was rated 10 out of 10 by the client team.
“Beyond Focus interpreted the brief with precision. The teamwork was perfect from start to finish.”— Once Upon Lisboa

FAQ
Questions about hotel video production
How long does a hotel brand film take to produce?
A complete hotel brand film project typically takes 4 to 8 weeks: 1–2 weeks of pre-production (concept, scripting, scheduling), 2–4 filming days on the property, and 2–3 weeks of post-production (editing, colour grading, sound design, music licensing). For urgent timelines — season launches, OTA profile updates — we can compress to 3 weeks.
What is included in hotel video production?
A full hotel production package includes: the main brand film (60–90 seconds, for website and campaigns), a short cut for Instagram Reels and YouTube Ads (15–30 seconds), area-specific cuts (restaurant, spa, rooms, exterior, pool), formats optimised for OTAs (Booking.com, Expedia, TripAdvisor), and up to 30 edited photographs. Full usage rights are transferred to the property.
Do you film outside of Lisbon?
Yes. We have filmed at properties across Portugal — Alentejo wine estates, Algarve resorts, Cascais boutique hotels and Lisbon city properties. Travel is costed into the proposal at the outset. There are no hidden logistics fees.
How does hotel video increase Booking.com conversions?
Booking.com allows video in hotel profiles, but fewer than 20% of properties use it. Our work for Hotel Casa Palmela resulted in a 40% increase in click-through rate from the Booking.com listing. Video communicates atmosphere, service quality and emotional experience in a way that photographs cannot — and it directly influences the decision to click 'book'.
