Marriott Hotels is loaning miniature
video cameras to guests at select properties to help them better capture their vacation memories.
The GoPro HERO4 cameras are available at 17 Caribbean and Latin American resorts and hotels.
Guests can test-drive a GoPro HERO4, the most advanced GoPro yet, and capture and share all of their adventures and experiences.
A YouTube video
details some of the ways guests can use the waterproof cameras, from skydiving to snorkeling. Marriott also has a dedicated Web site for the collaboration,
which currently does not have an end date.
"Next-generation travelers” are looking for ways to create and share their experiences and Marriott has made it a priority to constantly
introduce innovation at its hotels that is engaging, says Craig S. Smith, president of the Caribbean and Latin America at Marriott International.
"We live in a digital and social age. Through
this program, we're giving guests a fun way to tell their own travel story using the versatile and memory-making GoPro technology and immediately share their content with friends and family," Smith
says in a release.
Guests are encouraged to submit their photo and video content across social platforms using the hashtags #GoPro, #travelbrilliantly and #viajegenial for the chance to
be featured on the Marriott Hotels' Web site, www.travelbrilliantly.com/gopro.
The submitted content will be curated to
share across Marriott International's social media channels and the in-room entertainment system at participating hotels. To celebrate the launch of the program, guests' content will also be selected
from social media channels to win prizes such as vacation stays, Marriott Rewards points and GoPro cameras.
