In recent weeks we had announced Marriott's Home&Villas offer, which allowed people to accumulate as much as 40k points with a single 4-night stay.
Marriott has decided to offer this promotion again, but the terms are no longer as convenient. In the very first version, in fact, there was no minimum cost to bear and the only requirement was to stay 4 or more nights in one of the network's many facilities.
A lack that had triggered a hunt for the cheapest possible stay all over the world. In fact, in some locations it was possible to book 4 nights for less than 100$ per night and pocket the rich bonus.
The new offer promises the same bonus of 40,000 Bonvoy points for bookings made by May 19 for minimum 4-night stays by next September 9. Unfortunately, however, there is now also a minimum spend that must be made to trigger the promotion: 1500$.
So goodbye, then, to the mattress run hypothesis, only remains the bonus option to be taken advantage of only if you have a real stay planned and not a reservation made only for points.
