Smart automation for your second home
With Loxone, you can easily transform your holiday home or second home into a smart, secure, and efficient building that you can control from anywhere in the world. Without major renovations or ongoing subscription fees.
Remote security & convenience
Whether by the sea, in the highlands or in the countryside, a second home or holiday home is both a retreat and a haven of peace. It is therefore not surprising, that if people are fortunate enough to have this kind of money they decide to put it here, and enjoy the benefits of a holiday residence. However, this also raises further considerations that should be taken into account for a property. After all, the property will be empty for several weeks or months at a time.
Why smart automation is indispensable in second homes
Automation is a real game changer, especially for properties that owners are not always at. Loxone ensures that you always know what is happening on site – and that everything is ready when you arrive. The free Loxone App gives you complete control. From heating and lighting to music and access.
Maximum security – even remotely
Second homes are more frequently targeted by burglars than primary residences due to longer periods of absence. Loxone protects your property around the clock.
- Burglar Protection: Door and Window Contacts report attempted break-ins, while Presence Detectors and presence simulation deter potential intruders.
- Technical Alarms: Water leaks, smoke development or unusual power consumption are detected and reported immediately.
- Intercom: See who is ringing the doorbell – and answer and open the door remotely.
- NFC Code Touch: Grant access with pin codes and NFC tag – can manage access rights remotely. No more lock boxes.
Keyless access – flexible and secure
For guests, cleaning services or rentals:
- App, NFC, or Code Access – Fully customisable for guests, cleaning staff, etc., temporary or recurring
- Access Rights can be adjusted or deleted at any time
- Thanks to the Loxone Intercom – you are always virtually on site
No cables. No ongoing costs. No hassle.
- Air Technology: The hardware can be wireless – ideal for retrofitting in existing properties – no construction work or WiFi required. The technology also works reliably in the event of an internet outage.
- One-Time Investment: No subscription models or hidden fees.
- Support: Even with new generations of Loxone products, we continue to support existing hardware.

Frequently asked questions about smart installation in holiday homes
Is a complex installation necessary?
No. The wireless solution is perfect for existing buildings – without any mess or the feeling of being on a construction site during install.
Will I receive notifications when something happens?
Yes. You will be notified in the event of a break-in, smoke, water damage or unusual energy or water consumption. The system immediately sends a message to your smartphone or email address, or even calls you.
Is there a monthly fee or subscription?
No. Loxone is a fee-free system. You only invest once in the installation and the system, and your system belongs to you without having to rely on external platforms or pay monthly fees.
How does Loxone support me in renting out my holiday property?
Control access easily via the App and create, change or delete codes and permissions. This allows you to let tenants in without physical keys and maintain control over your property at all times.
