African Nomad Themes
African Nomad Theme
A modern Elementor container-based WordPress theme for self-catering stays, lodges, guest houses, boutique accommodation and direct-booking websites.
What the theme includes
Elementor starter pages
Home, Properties, Accommodation, Stay Detail, Experiences, About, Contact and Manager Login starter pages.
Container-first layout
Starter pages use Elementor containers rather than old sections and columns.
Accommodation focused
Designed around property listings, accommodation listings, enquiry flow and direct booking calls to action.

Required plugins

Important setup notes
- The theme works with the Free/Core plugin for unlimited-property websites.
- The theme does not contain booking logic itself; booking functionality belongs to the plugin.

- After rebuilding pages, run Elementor > Tools > Regenerate CSS & Data.
