Start with guests who have a definite itinerary, who will be out most of the time. Purchase a new high efficiency air conditioner with a thermostat set to reasonable levels. Blackout curtains are inexpensive and easy to make, and they will cut down on heat buildup. Include turning off electrical appliances and keeping temperature at X level when home in your rules. I have 3 window bangers and they are less than half the price of central air.
