The OUTRIGGER Waikīkī Paradise Hotel has joined Global Hotel Alliance’s GHA DISCOVERY loyalty program. The move completes the integration of OUTRIGGER Resorts & Hotels’ full global portfolio into the alliance.
The addition strengthens OUTRIGGER’s participation in the program and enables access to GHA DISCOVERY benefits across OUTRIGGER properties in Hawai‘i, Fiji, the Maldives, Mauritius and Thailand. These benefits include exclusive member rates, room upgrades and DISCOVERY Dollars redeemable on stays, dining and experiences.
GHA DISCOVERY generated record loyalty-driven revenue in 2025 through repeat stays, direct web and app bookings and cross-brand travel. Members enrolled through one brand and stayed with another. With OUTRIGGER Waikīkī Paradise now live on the platform, OUTRIGGER is positioned to increase incremental demand in Waikīkī and reduce reliance on third-party distribution channels.
The 443-room OUTRIGGER Waikīkī Paradise Hotel is the company’s second craft hotel, following the OUTRIGGER Waikiki Beachcomber Hotel. The property is located on the historic grounds of Princess Ka‘iulani’s former ʻĀinahau estate. It combines flexible accommodations with a year-round schedule of programming for group travel, events and community-focused activities. The location and adaptable spaces have driven demand from youth, high school and collegiate sports teams as well as industry gatherings and conferences.
Programming is supported by the Paradise Originals, a collective of Hawai‘i-based artists, entrepreneurs and cultural practitioners whose work informed the hotel’s 2024 reimagination and continues to shape the guest experience. On-property offerings include Art + Flea markets, wellness activations and dining venues such as Appetito Craft Pizza & Wine Bar and Tanaka of Tokyo teppanyaki.
“Joining GHA DISCOVERY strengthens our ability to compete globally while maintaining what makes this hotel distinct,” said Kiana Beimes, general manager of OUTRIGGER Waikīkī Paradise Hotel. “The platform allows us to tap into a high-value loyalty audience that actively seeks out new destinations and experiences, while reinforcing direct booking behaviors that benefit both the property and the brand.”
GHA DISCOVERY connects more than 45 independent hotel brands through a single loyalty ecosystem that provides scale, data insights and incremental revenue opportunities while allowing each brand to retain its positioning and identity.
The integration supports OUTRIGGER’s strategy of using culturally rooted placemaking alongside global distribution platforms to drive growth across its portfolio.
