How two Hawaiian hotels increased revenue with the right PMS

OPERATIONS

Coconut Waikiki and Shoreline Hotel replaced an outdated PMS that limited their operations, reporting, and rate management. By switching to Planet’s cloud-based PMS, they gained efficient workflows, advanced digital reporting, and professional yield management—allowing their teams to boost productivity and spend more time with guests.

Why it matters: When a hotel’s PMS is outdated, it limits everything, from daily operations to reporting to rate management. Coconut Waikiki and Shoreline Hotel show how upgrading to a modern, cloud‑based PMS can immediately improve efficiency, unlock professional yielding, and free staff to focus on guests instead of admin.

Planet’s cloud-based PMS gives the hotels stronger yield management, customizable digital reporting, and reliable integrations. By switching systems, Coconut Waikiki and Shoreline Hotel simplified daily operations, improved rate management, and reduced time spent on manual admin.

Top 3 Core Objectives: Coconut Waikiki and Shoreline Hotel needed to overcome the limitations of their outdated PMS, so they set out to find a system that could improve daily operations, strengthen reporting, and support professional rate management.

Modernize PMS: The hotels needed to replace an outdated PMS that limited daily operations, had minimal features, and lacked the reporting and analytics required to make informed business decisions.
Improve Rate Management: They wanted yielding functionality that would allow them to manage rates professionally in a competitive market, something their previous system could not support.
Strengthen Integrations: The team needed reliable integrations to support key business processes, since their former PMS only offered simple 1‑way connections that restricted operations.
