How Elements of Byron Achieved AUD 250,000+ in Upsells & Transformed Guest Arrivals
Verified case study
Hotel Tech Report has reached out to hoteliers at Elements of Byron to verify this case study.
Elements of Byron partnered with Canary Technologies to digitise guest touchpoints. They were interested in streamlining check‑in, enhancing upsell channels, and delivering a luxury “beachfront barefoot” experience.
Why it matters:
Manual arrival and registration processes were creating bottlenecks during peak periods, limiting upsell potential and distracting team members from high‑touch guest interaction.
-
The digital platform enabled mobile check‑in for ~75% of guests, inventive upsell packaging generating AUD 250,000+, and smart checkout improving operations for a villa‑based resort.
Top 3 Core Objectives:
Elements of Byron aimed to modernise guest arrival, accelerate upsell revenue, and improve operational efficiency while maintaining their luxury, relaxed brand.
-
Streamline Arrival & Registration: Move from paper‑based registration cards and long front desk queues to fast, mobile‑enabled check‑in.
-
Unlock Upsell Revenue: Create engaging, mobile‑friendly product packages (breakfast upgrades, tastings, experiences) and drive incremental revenue.
-
Enhance Departure Efficiency: Introduce smart checkout so guests can self‑review folios and housekeeping teams receive real‑time departure alerts.
