Marriott has some fantastic properties around the world, and no time is better to apply for the Marriott Rewards Premier Plus Credit Card because the signup bonus is as high as it has ever been! These points can get you free nights at some of the nicest Marriott Properties in the country! Here are five of my favorites.
1. Wailea Beach Marriott Resort & Spa
This hotel is a Category 8 property costing between 35,000 and 40,000 points per night. With the signup bonus, you will be able to stay here for two nights for free with points left over! This hotel is located between two beaches on Maui in Hawaii — a beautifully serene property!
2. The Ritz-Carlton, Hong Kong
Marriott points can be used to book Ritz-Carlton hotels, too, and this one is a gorgeous property! Ritz-Carlton properties are on a different category system than regular Marriott hotels. You will see different tiers quoted instead of categories. The Ritz Hong Kong is a Tier 5 property and will run you 60,000 to 70,000 points per night. The signup bonus will offer you one night for free with some points left over!
3. Cotton House Hotel, Autograph Collection
Housed in a 19th-century neoclassical building, this hotel in Barcelona is a Category 8 property and will cost you between 35,000 and 40,000 points per night. This hotel is in a great location in Barcelona – only a five-minute walk from the nearest metro station and a 10-minute walk from Antoni Gaudí’s Casa Batlló, an absolute must see in the city!
4. The Price Sakura Tower Tokyo, Autograph Collection
Located in a 20,000 square meter oasis in the middle of Tokyo, The Prince Sakura Tower is a great escape from busy Tokyo life. This hotel is another Category 8 property costing between 35,000 and 40,000 points per night and makes an especially reasonable redemption as Tokyo is a relatively expensive city to visit.
5. Surfer’s Paradise Marriott Resort and Spa
Another pretty reasonable redemption in a relatively expensive area, the Surfer’s Paradise Marriott Resort and Spa is a Category 7 property that costs between 30,000 – 35,000 point per night. The sign-up bonus for the Marriott Credit Card could get you three nights here, only a six-minute walk from the beach! It doesn’t get much better than that.
