Sensory accessibility for short-term rentals

A short-term rental that
knows the guest
before they arrive.

SensoStay is a sensory-accessibility platform for short-term rentals. A guest profile travels with the traveller; an in-property hub configures lighting, alerts, and entry routines for deaf, hard-of-hearing, blind and low-vision guests — before they reach the door.

Why it matters

Most travellers never ask whether a place will work for them. Some do — every time they book.

For guests who are deaf, hard-of-hearing, blind or low-vision, a reservation carries a quieter set of questions. Will the doorbell reach me? Will the lighting be kind? Can I find my way to the door on my own?

Most short-term rentals were never set up to answer them — not unkindly, just unthinkingly. SensoStay exists to change that, one stay at a time.

The product

Three layers. One seamless stay.

A traveller builds their profile once. The property reconfigures itself for them. The owner reaches an audience that the wider hospitality market is failing to serve.

Layer 01

Guest Profile

A portable sensory profile that travels from booking to booking and syncs to the chosen property 24–48 hours before arrival.

  • Light, noise & alert preferences
  • Screen-reader friendly interface
  • Audio-described property walkthrough
Layer 02

In-Property Hub

A locally hosted hub runs Graviola's orchestration software — interpreting the profile against the room and tuning the space to the individual.

  • Smart lighting, blinds & alerts
  • Smart locks, no verbal handover
  • Local AI — privacy by design
Layer 03

Owner Platform

The connective tissue for hosts: readiness onboarding, device pairing, guest feedback, and certified visibility to accessible-travel audiences.

  • Step-by-step host readiness
  • Verified guest feedback loop
  • Listing on accessible-travel networks
Built for both sides

Two audiences. One aligned outcome.

SensoStay is structurally a B2B product — the property owner is the paying customer — but the platform exists for the sensory-disabled traveller. Doing right by one is the obvious commercial move for the other.

For property owners

A new audience without a renovation.

The value proposition is occupancy, not a higher nightly rate. Three concrete commercial gains drive the case.

  • Higher overall fill rate Open inventory to a structurally underserved demand pool with few credible alternatives.
  • Longer average stays Sensory-disabled travellers and their companions consistently book longer trips than the inbound average.
  • Stronger off-season occupancy This segment actively prefers the shoulder and quieter periods that most other guests avoid.
  • Ahead of regulation Move toward European Accessibility Act expectations before the regulatory pressure lands.
For travellers

Book without it feeling like a gamble.

A confident booking, an independent arrival, and a property that's already adjusted to you — without negotiation, paperwork, or phone calls.

  • Audio-described listings Hear the property before you book. Screen-reader friendly across the booking surface.
  • Alerts that reach you Visual doorbells, vibrating bed alerts, smart-light cues — chosen by you, not assumed.
  • Independent arrival Smart-lock entry and a pre-configured space. No reliance on a host being present.
  • One profile, every stay Your preferences travel with you. Configure once; arrive prepared everywhere.

To make every short-term rental in Cyprus — and over time across the EU — configurable to a guest's sensory profile, and trustworthy enough to be booked confidently by sensory-disabled travellers and their companions.
