Marriott International has launched Marriott Bonvoy Outdoors, a digital platform designed to help travellers discover and book trips based on preferred outdoor activities.
The platform includes access to more than 450 hotels, 50,000 homes and villas, and curated tours and activities across categories such as skiing, hiking, cycling, diving, surfing, fishing and paddling.
The company has also introduced the Outdoor Collection by Marriott Bonvoy, a portfolio of properties located in nature-focused destinations. These include cabins near national parks and boutique hotels in remote settings, offering basic amenities such as beds, running water and restrooms.
The first two brands in the Outdoor Collection are Postcard Cabins and Trailborn Hotels. Postcard Cabins operates over 1,200 properties across 29 locations in the US, each within two hours of major cities. Trailborn Hotels offers accommodation in areas such as the Blue Ridge Mountains, the Grand Canyon and Wrightsville Beach, North Carolina, with guided excursions and locally focused programming.
Marriott Bonvoy Outdoors has partnered with Outside Interactive to offer Marriott Bonvoy Moments, including hiking and kayaking in Hawaii, kayaking in the Maldives and snorkelling in Belize. Further Moments will be announced throughout 2026.
To promote the launch, Marriott Bonvoy has introduced the Drop Pin Challenge, a treasure hunt across 20 outdoor destinations in the US and Canada. Participants can scan physical map pins to earn Marriott Bonvoy points, with 10 million points available in total.
“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. With the new Outdoor Collection by Marriott Bonvoy, our curated Marriott Bonvoy Moments, and even playful activations like the Drop Pin Challenge with Dylan Efron, we’re not just offering places to stay – we’re opening doors to experiences that inspire, connect, and stay with you forever.”
