The Waikiki Collection
BY SEAN DEE –
I’m pleased to share that we have grouped Outrigger Waikiki Beach Resort (OWK), Outrigger Reef Waikiki Beach Resort (ORF) and the Waikiki Beachcomber by Outrigger (OBC) as The Waikiki Collection with a corresponding sales team. This was the result of a collaborative effort between property operations and company services sales leveraging the insights of our new SVP- Global Sales, Chris Riccardi.
Heading up The Waikiki Collection sales team is Brad Logsdon, area director of sales and marketing and reporting to Brad are:
- Mary Loy (area director of leisure and corporate sales)
- Lauren Yamamoto (area leisure and corporate sales manager)
- Cassie Simpson (area group sales manager)
- Asari Tashima (area group sales manager – Asia)
- Allison Deliz (area sales coordinator)
- Gwen Boyce (sales and service coordinator – group market)
These talented Waikīkī sales professionals are charged with optimizing sales for all three properties through coordinated coverage for all markets, including wholesale, group, corporate, consortia and luxury retail agents.
Additionally, The Waikiki Collection structure will provide even better guest service and support of our 5 company-wide strategic goals:
- To be Best in Class operators and revenue generators
- To maintain and grow Exceptional Partnerships that strengthen our customer relations
- To support Property Elevation and quality renovations
