Nothing compares to an adventure in the wild, yet all outdoor travelers know that finding new places to go and preparing for the experience is never easy.
Whether it’s destination inspiration, choosing where to stay, or planning what to do, the process can feel overwhelming, and many travelers end up going to the same, familiar locations.
Now, there is a better way. Introducing Marriott Bonvoy Outdoors: a new digital platform from the global hospitality leader that enables travelers to discover and book their next trip based not only where they want to go, but what they love to do. Travelers can now search across 450+ hotels, 50,000 Homes & Villas, and curated Tours & Activities that offer immediate access to some of the most popular outdoor activities – Ski & Snowboard, Hike & Glamp, Bike, Scuba & Snorkel, Surf, Fish, and Paddle.
Whether it’s skiing Switzerland’s slopes from W Verbier, paddle boarding in Banff at Moxy, or diving in Belize near Alaia Belize, Autograph Collection, discovering a new outdoor destination has never been easier.
Alongside the platform, Marriott is also unveiling its newest brand, the Outdoor Collection by Marriott Bonvoy™. This curated portfolio offers exclusively outdoor-focused, design-forward stays set in remarkable destinations, from cabins tucked into woodlands near National Parks to boutique hotels on cliffs’ edges.
Every property in the Outdoor Collection by Marriott Bonvoy will combine unparalleled access to nature alongside the essential needs that hotel guests expect such as comfortable beds, hot running water, and dedicated restrooms.
“We built Marriott Bonvoy Outdoors to help people, whether that’s cresting a mountain trail, catching the perfect wave, or simply finding quiet under the stars,” said Peggy Roe, Executive Vice President and Chief Customer Officer, Marriott International. “Travel is at its best when it speaks to who we are and what we love. It’s about reconnecting with yourself and the people you love in the places that inspire you most.”
The two inaugural brands of the Outdoor Collection by Marriott Bonvoy are Postcard Cabins and Trailborn Hotels: two pioneers redefining how travelers experience the outdoors. Postcard Cabins offer the perfect escape to disconnect from daily life and reconnect in nature.
With over 1,200 design-forward cabins across 29 U.S. locations – each just two hours from major cities – guests enjoy Scandinavian-inspired interiors, private fire pits, and access to trails, lakes, and star-filled skies. Meanwhile, Trailborn Hotels elevates outdoor adventure into boutique hospitality with premium properties in the Outdoor Collection by Marriott Bonvoy located in bucket-list destinations, including the Blue Ridge Mountains, the Grand Canyon, and the premier surf town of Wrightsville Beach, North Carolina.
Each Trailborn stay blends architectural style with a deep sense of place, pairing curated F&B and tailored cultural programming with doorstep access to some of America’s most awe-inspiring landscapes – all complemented by guided excursions and thoughtfully crafted field guides.
