New travel and dining loyalty program Dis-loyalty launches in Australia with a seriously good travel sale

Dis-loyalty, global hospitality group Ennismore’s travel and dining membership, has officially launched in Australia and is marking its arrival with its biggest offer of the year: The Big Dis-loyal Sale.

The six-week promotion, running until December 3, delivers up to 40 per cent off stays across more than 80 hotels worldwide. The participating properties span some of the chicest names in boutique accommodation - think The Hoxton, 25hours Hotels, Mama Shelter, Mondrian and SO/ - and the deal comes with unusually traveller-friendly conditions. There are no blackout dates (not even New Year’s Eve), free cancellation and unlimited bookings, making it one of the more flexible global hotel promos currently available to Australians.

The timing also aligns neatly with the moment many of us start mapping out our next chapter of escapes. Whether you’re plotting a mid-summer weekend away, dreaming of a European winter trip or locking in plans for early 2026, the sale’s wide window of stay dates - from now until through to March 31, 2026 - leaves room for spontaneous getaways and more strategic long-haul planning.

Destinations in the line-up range from tropical to snow-dusted. Beach lovers looking to dodge an Australian winter might be tempted by SO/ Maldives’ overwater villas and reliably balmy January weather, while Mexico’s Habitas hotels in Tulum and Bacalar offer barefoot, bohemian-leaning stays framed by beaches and jungle. Those yearning for a dose of European winter magic can point their compass to Berlin, Paris or Vienna for Christmas markets, gallery hopping and steaming mugs of Glühwein at spots like 25hours Hotel Bikini Berlin or SO/ Vienna.

New Year’s Eve travellers – the group usually stung by inflated prices and strict conditions - will find the offer unusually generous. While there’s a four-night minimum for December 29–31 arrivals, the lack of blackout dates means revellers can still claim up to 40 per cent off. Prefer a shorter stay? Those nights still attract a 20 per cent discount. The assortment of hotels leans towards stylish, design-driven stays, whether that’s a splashy celebration at Rixos The Palm in Dubai or a sleeker, city-centric New Year at Mondrian Singapore Duxton.

Beyond hotel stays, Dis-loyalty is also pushing into gifting ahead of the festive season with digital gift cards redeemable at more than 120 hotels and 200 restaurants and bars globally. For serial travellers, food lovers or that friend who’s impossible to buy for, the membership framework means those gift cards can be used in multiple cities or even on dining alone.

While new loyalty programs launch all the time, the flexibility of this one - particularly the lack of blackout dates and the ability to make unlimited bookings – is likely to catch the attention of deal-savvy Australians. More participating hotels will roll out during the sale period, too.
