January 1st, 2026 - devicethread is excited to announce Al Nada, a LIV by Yamama property in the Sayl31 Community, onboarding devicethread SmartAccess and SmartEntertainment in Riyadh. This milestone reflects devicethread's continued global expansion and the growing demand for modern, reliable hospitality infrastructure across the Middle East.

Bringing Smart Hospitality to Riyadh's Sayl31 Community

Al Nada, part of LIV by Yamama's portfolio of thoughtfully designed serviced residences in Riyadh's most connected locations, needed a way to manage guest access and in-room entertainment more efficiently, without adding pressure to its front-desk team.

With SmartAccess and SmartEntertainment, Al Nada now offers guests smooth, self-serve arrivals alongside personalized in-room entertainment, reducing manual workflows and reception dependency. The rollout added 77 new smart locks across the property, reinforcing LIV by Yamama's "seamlessly digital" approach to modern, long-stay living.

SmartAccess was also integrated directly with Al Nada's existing Cloudbeds PMS, allowing guest access to sync seamlessly with reservations and check-in data.

The deployment was managed entirely by the property's own team, reflecting how straightforward the SmartAccess onboarding process can be even for a small, self-managed boutique hotel.

"Our residents expect a stay that just works, from the moment they arrive to the moment they settle in," said the Property Manager of Al Nada. "devicethread gave us a way to deliver that seamlessly, without adding any extra work for our team."

The result is a more efficient, guest-friendly stay experience that supports Al Nada's operations while reinforcing the flexible, digital-first living experience LIV by Yamama is known for.

A Growing Presence for devicethread in the Middle East

This deployment reinforces devicethread's continued expansion into the Middle East and its mission to build the agentic infrastructure layer for modern hospitality — where access, entertainment, and guest experience work seamlessly together.
