Remote monitoring and control for holiday parks and leisure estates
skentel provide a fully managed remote monitoring service that gives holiday parks, leisure estates, and similar venues real-time visibility and control over their dispersed assets. Their solutions replace routine site visits and manual checks with continuous data and automated alerts, visible at anytime, from anywhere. This helps operators reduce wasted travel, make smarter decisions about energy and water, run more efficient operations, and have clear evidence of savings and sustainability gains.
In 2009, skentel recognised they could better help their clients by providing a secure connection to the control panels they were installing. Instead of waiting hours for one of their engineers to travel to a site, they could provide instant support remotely. They soon realised they could offer that same advantage to their clients, providing real-time insights whilst cutting their travel.
Since then, eliminating travel to remote assets has been at the heart of everything they do. They are constantly expanding the connectivity options available to eliminate travel miles, from cellular to LoRaWAN and now direct-to-satellite , with a strategic roadmap to keep pushing the boundaries of what’s possible. Having a range of connectivity solutions allows skentel to tailor their approach to each client’s specific situation, choosing the right technology for the location, environment, and needs of each site.
Originally called Ver Fácil (Spanish for “easy to see”), in 2025 they became skentel (meaning “clever” in Cornish), a name that reflects their evolution into intelligent, tailored remote monitoring solutions.
skentel design, install, and manage remote monitoring as a fully managed service tailored for outdoor and leisure environments, handling the hardware, connectivity, and platform so operators can focus on running their parks.
skentel bring a practical and forward-looking perspective to the XP Community. By eliminating the need to travel to remote assets, their platform opens up a range of operational benefits for holiday parks and leisure venues — providing continuous asset visibility, real-time data, and automated alerts that help reduce costs, cut wasted resources, and improve guest experience.Their remote monitoring expertise aligns closely with the XP Community’s focus on operational efficiency and sustainability.
skentel’s dashboard integrates directly with holiday park management and booking systems, including Holidaymaker and fellow community partners Parc Vu and RMS.
We value skentel’s contribution and see their monitoring platform as a meaningful part of the technology ecosystem for parks and leisure venues looking to move beyond reactive, manual asset management.
