Guests are already telling us what they want.

They came to the coast to see the ocean.

Across TripAdvisor reviews, oceanfront guests repeatedly describe the same thing:


They want to hear the ocean.

They choose rooms for it.
They open balcony doors for it.
They sleep with those doors open.
And they notice when they can't hear it.


OutsideOn gives guests the experience they're already seeking — with the door closed.

Some guests will even pay more for it...

“...where we could hear the waves from our room. This was an essential for my family.”


The Ellie Beach Resort Myrtle Beach, Tapestry by Hilton


Myrtle Beach, SC • August 2026


The guest described hearing the waves as “an essential” and paid an upgrade fee for a room that delivered the experience.

That's not just preference. That's value.

They are opening the door for a reason

At oceanfront properties, guests repeatedly describe leaving balcony doors open specifically to hear the surf — including while they sleep.


At other properties, guests complain when an oceanfront room provides the view but not the sound.


One 2026 guest at Ocean 22 Myrtle Beach specifically noted that the bedroom windows didn't open, leaving no way to hear the waves from the bedroom.



Another guest at Marriott's Myrtle Beach Resort & Spa at Grande Dunes opened the balcony door but found nearby mechanical equipment overwhelmed the sound of the ocean.


The view isn't always the entire experience.

Guests want to hear where they are.

The open door paradox

Guests open the door for:


The waves. The surf. The atmosphere.


But the same open door allows:


Conditioned air out. Heat and humidity in. Exterior noise in.

The guest experience and the property's energy strategy shouldn't have to compete.



OutsideOn changes that.

Bring the experience in

OutsideOn brings the property's live environmental sound into the guest room.


Not a generic ocean recording.
Not a white-noise machine.
Not somebody else's beach.


Their ocean. Their property. Happening right now.



And with multiple in-room zones, that experience can extend beyond the main living area into bedrooms and other spaces where guests may otherwise be unable to hear the ocean at all.

  • How can OutsideOn help reduce energy costs?

    OutsideOn is designed to reduce one of the most common sources of conditioned-air loss in oceanfront rooms: open balcony doors. By bringing the live outdoor environment inside, guests can enjoy the sound and atmosphere of the ocean without relying on an open door.

  • How much could our property save?

    Savings will vary by property, climate, room type, HVAC system, occupancy, and guest behavior. OutsideOn is designed to be measured against your property’s actual operating conditions so potential savings can be evaluated during a pilot before a larger rollout.

  • Does OutsideOn replace our existing energy-management system?

    No. OutsideOn is designed to complement existing hotel energy-management and HVAC systems. It addresses the guest behavior those systems often can’t control: opening the balcony door because the guest wants to experience what’s outside.

  • Can we test OutsideOn before installing it property-wide?

    Yes. OUTSIDE ON can begin with a targeted pilot in selected rooms or areas, allowing the property to evaluate guest response, balcony-door behavior, HVAC performance, and potential energy savings before considering a larger deployment.

  • Will guests still control the experience?

    Yes. Guests can choose whether to use OUTSIDE ON and control the listening level from inside their room. The goal is to provide another way to experience the property's environment — not take control away from the guest.
