Why AC Costs Add Up Across 14 Resort Villas

Prestige Bookings is a luxury resort operator in Coral Bay, Cyprus. Known for offering upscale accommodations with high service standards, the company sought a smarter way to manage dozens of air conditioning units across its properties—without compromising guest comfort.

The Challenge

  • AC units running in unoccupied rooms
  • No centralized control over HVAC systems
  • High electricity bills from guest misuse and inefficiency
  • Environmental pressure to reduce carbon emissions
  • Time-consuming manual adjustments across multiple locations

The Solution

Prestige Bookings implemented Sensibo Airbend to:

  • Centralize HVAC control across all villas from one dashboard
  • Automate AC usage with AI-based scheduling and motion detection
  • Apply Climate React rules for ideal temperature thresholds
  • Reduce mold with auto-maintenance features
  • Install in minutes with plug-and-play setup — no tools required

“I don’t know how every hotel hasn’t implemented this system—the savings and easy integration make it a worthy investment

The Results

  • 40% decrease in energy bills

  • Boosted guest satisfaction with more consistent room comfort

  • Fewer maintenance requests thanks to smart alerts and automation

  • Stronger alignment with sustainability initiatives

Frequently Asked Questions

How much can a hotel save with smart AC control?

Prestige Bookings cut its AC-related energy costs by 40%. Savings depend on occupancy, climate and how ACs were used before, and come mostly from not cooling empty rooms.

Does it work with the ACs already in our rooms?

Yes. Sensibo works with almost any AC or heat pump that uses an infrared remote - splits and mini-splits included - so no units need replacing.

Do guests lose control of the AC?

No. Guests keep using their remote or the AC as usual, within temperature limits and schedules the hotel sets.
