Why You Might Want To Book Your Wyndham All Inclusive Now

Wyndham Dominicus Beach 

One of the best ways to get the most value out of Wyndham hotel points is to book one of its all-inclusive resorts. Since you can redeem 15,000 points for any room at any Wyndham, the all-inclusive hotel gets you the most bang for your buck. 

But, alas, all good things must come to an end.  So on April 3rd, Wyndham is going to a three-tier redemption system for its points. The tiers will be

•  7,500
• 15,000
• 30,000

Now, this is good news if you want to use Wyndham points for the lower end hotels. And Wyndham, whose brands include Days Inn, Microtel, Ramada, Super 8 and soon to be La Quinta, has more than 6,000 hotels that can be classified as budget. Wyndham has not released a list of which hotels will be in which tier, but we can only assume that budget hotels will be in the 7,500 tier, medium hotels will be in the 15,000 tier and all-inclusive will increase to the 30,000 tier. 

Now Wyndham says if you book a hotel now and stay after April 3rd and the hotel moves to the lower tier, you will get a credit for the point difference. 

On the opposite end, if you book a stay for after April 3rd at an all-inclusive, you will NOT be charged the difference when the hotel moves to the 30,000 tier. 

Personally, I am looking at the all-inclusive in the Dominican Republic for a summer getaway so I may book now to lock in the lower rates. I can always cancel up to the day before my stay and get my points back. Be sure to check the cancellation policy for the individual hotel.
