Like Marriott? Check Out The New Discount Offers



There are a few great promotions starting this week if you are looking to get a deal on Marriott Bonvoy points. Marriott Bonvoy points are flexible since not only can you use them at least a dozen hotel brands like Marriott, Sheraton, Courtyard, Residence Inn, Springhill Suites, and Fairfield Suites. Residence Inn, Springhill Suites and Fairfield Suites offer FREE breakfast and rooms big enough to accommodate a family of 5.

You can also transfer Marriott Bonvoy points to nearly 40 different airlines like American, United, Singapore Airlines, and Aer Lingus. Marriott Bonvoy will also sweeten the deal by giving you a 5,000-mile bonus when you transfer 60,000 points. Nice!

Three Marriott Bonvoy promotions starting this week

Starting May 11th, Marriott announced a 20% bonus on purchased gift cards. So if you buy a $100 gift card, it will only cost you $80. This promotion will end on May 17th. You can buy up to $5,000 per day. Gift cards can be used for hotel reservations, spa treatments, dining, and more. But keep in mind, some Marriott brands do not accept gift cards.

Starting May 18th and through June 20th, Marriott will offer 60% bonus on purchased points. This is the best ever deal on Marriott points. The last biggest bonus was 50%. This might be a great way to rack up some points for future travel. Right now, there are no expiration dates on Marriott points, but keep in mind that usually, the points expire after 24 months. In order to take advantage of this promotion, your account needs to have been open for at least 30 days.

On May 18th and 19th, Marriott will offer 10% discount on Homes and Villas by Marriott. This program has not gotten a lot of attention mostly because it doesn't usually offer the best value. But just like Airbnb and Vrbo, it might be a good alternative moving forward to hotels.

When you buy gift cards, points or make a reservation on a home rental, be sure to use your Marriott Bonvoy credit card so you earn more points on your purchase. If you don't have a Marriott credit card yet, please use my referral link to support this blog.   You will get a bonus when you reach the minimum spend and I'll get a referral bonus. Win-win.
