This thread is resolved. Here is a description of the problem and solution.

Problem:
You are unable to access the 'accommodation' menu item on your site after translating it with WPML. When attempting to view the translated 'accommodation' page, an error message indicates that the page cannot be found.
Solution:
First, we recommend resaving your permalinks. You can do this by navigating to Settings → Permalinks in your WordPress dashboard and simply clicking 'Save Changes'. This action often resolves issues related to URL structures.

Next, check if the 'accommodation' slug might be conflicting with another plugin, such as a Booking Plugin. Try changing the slug of the translated page from 'accommodation' to a different term and see if this resolves the issue.

If these steps do not solve your problem, or if the solution seems outdated or irrelevant to your case, please visit our support forum to open a new ticket. We also highly recommend checking related known issues at https://wpml.org/known-issues/, verifying the version of the permanent fix, and confirming that you have installed the latest versions of themes and plugins.

Background of the issue:
I am trying to access the 'accommodation' menu item on my site hidden link. I have translated the 'accommodation' page using WPML, but the link doesn't work.

Symptoms:
When I click on 'View' in WPML-Translations for the 'accommodation' page, I receive an error message: 'Sorry, the page you are looking for has not been found.'

Questions:
Why is the 'accommodation' menu item link not working?
Why does the translated 'accommodation' page show an error when viewed?

Thank you for reaching out to WPML support.

Have you tried resaving your permalinks by going to Settings → Permalinks?

It's possible that the 'accommodation' slug is already reserved by another plugin, such as Booking Plugin. If you temporarily change the page slug from 'accommodation' to something else, does that resolve the issue?

Thanks Andrey, that worked. Changed my link name from accommodation to something else.
