VOILÀ Hotel Rewards Launches Atlantica Advantage Rewards at Canada's Atlantica Hotel Halifax

NEWPORT BEACH, Calif., March 24, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- VOILÀ Hotel Rewards (http://voilahotels.com), the world's number one independent hotel loyalty program, proudly announces the launch of Atlantica Advantage Rewards (http://www.atlantica-advantage.com/), a co-branded loyalty program with Canada's Atlantica Hotel Halifax (http://www.atlanticahotelhalifax.com/).

Atlantica Advantage Rewards provides members with rewards and earning opportunities at the Atlantica Hotel Halifax in addition to hundreds of independent hotels and resorts that are members of the VOILÀ worldwide network. Membership in Atlantica Advantage Rewards is free, and members enjoy a variety of perks including priority check-ins, complimentary hotel stays, room-class upgrades, tailored pre-arrival room preferences, and a broad range of redemption opportunities from airline miles to merchandise.

"We are very excited to partner with VOILÀ Hotel Rewards to customize and provide this new reward program to our guests," said David Clark, General Manager, Atlantica Hotel Halifax. "Combining VOILÀ Hotel Rewards expertise in CRM with the high levels of service we offer, we expect to dramatically expand our global reach and look forward to welcoming a number of new guests to our hotel."

The Atlantica Halifax is a landmark hotel centrally located in the heart of the city. Located alongside some of Nova Scotia's must-see attractions, guests can take a stroll in the picturesque Victorian-era Public Gardens, see authentic Titanic artifacts at the Maritime Museum, shop in the boutiques on Spring Garden Roads, or try their luck at the Casino Nova Scotia. Halifax also boasts a vibrant nightlife and hosts a number of popular art and music festivals throughout the year.

Delivering every guest a welcoming, four-star experience, the hotel is a blend of traditional and modern with spacious meeting areas perfect for weddings or other events. There's plenty to see and do inside the hotel as well. Guests can work out in the fitness area, relax on the sunny patio or even go for a few laps in the pool before unwinding completely in the sauna or whirlpool. The on-site restaurant, Seasons by Atlantica, serves dishes made with the finest local ingredients for a true taste of Nova Scotia.

"The way people travel is changing and guests need an easy way to earn rewards whenever their travels take them to multiple locations," Peter Gorla, managing director of VOILÀ Hotel Rewards. "With Atlantica Advantage Rewards, we've made it easier for the Atlantica Halifax to reward their loyal guests while simultaneously reaching thousands of highly engaged VOILÀ members. This is just the latest example of how we continuously strive to deliver unique value to independent hotels and the like-minded travelers they serve."

VOILÀ, the world's number one loyalty program for independent hotels, lets members enjoy rewards and earning opportunities at independent hotels and resorts around the globe. Instead of limiting earnings to one brand, members can travel to countless locations, stay at any participating VOILÀ hotel worldwide, and still earn points. VOILÀ points can be redeemed with a wide range of partners and for free hotel stays. Additional perks include room-class upgrades, tailored pre-arrival room preferences, priority check-in, and privileged access to hotel amenities including the Capitol Plaza's fitness facility.

VOILÀ's points-based frequency guest program provides recognition benefits and room redemption opportunities at participating network hotels.

To achieve this, VOILÀ provides hotel- or group-branded solutions for our partner hotels, with VOILÀ acting as the supporting network (similar to Star Alliance or OneWorld for frequent flyer programs). VOILÀ's global presence allows members to earn and redeem points across a wide variety of hotels and redemption partners in the VOILÀ global network.

A selection of VOILÀ's current redemption partners include airline programs such as Alaska Airlines Mileage Plan, TudoAzul by Azul Brazilian Airlines, TrueBlue by JetBlue, Virgin America Elevate Program, Flying Blue (Air France / KLM), Southwest Airlines Rapid Rewards, Virgin Atlantic flyingclub, EarlyReturns Hawaiian Miles, Iceland Air Saga Club, US Airways Dividend Miles, and Regal Wings; retail partners such as Amazon.com, Facebook, Overstock.com, Visa Incentive Cards, MAGSFORPOINTS, Multiplus Fidelidade, RewardsPay, Smiles, Mango, iTunes™, Emaar, iFly Dubai, Ski Dubai, and Thanks Again; and charitable causes such as Breast Cancer Research Foundation, Kula, Worldreader.org, and Kiva.

From the consumer's perspective, this means members can enjoy the rich experiences and extraordinary qualities independent hotels offer while earning points and receiving benefits typically tied to big chain loyalty programs.
