You keep the perimeter tight, but you hide it in plain sight. Smart tech—discrete cameras, motion sensors, a single access point—goes under the floorboards or behind a wall panel, and the main entrance is a glass façade with an unobtrusive guard. Then you build trust into the design: a concierge who knows every guest, a personal security detail that blends with the staff, and an emergency plan that’s rehearsed but never revealed. That way the guests feel safe, not watched. The key is anticipation and discretion, not shouting.
