Radisson Big Night Giveaway

A Week in Hawaii with Marriott - Exclusive Offer for Marriott Rewards credit card holders

Just When I was thinking about canceling my Marriott Rewards Credit Card to make room for another offering from Chase, I received an e-mail last night that is making me reconsider...

An exclusive offer for Marriott Rewards® Credit Card holders
Enjoy 3 free nights at Maui’s Wailea Beach Marriott® Resort & Spa when you redeem for a 4-night stay in 2012, giving you 7 nights of oceanfront bliss.

For just 140,000 Marriott Rewards points, you’ll enjoy:
     - 7 nights at the Wailea Beach Marriott Resort & Spa
     - $100 credit at Kumu Bar & Grill

Need more points? Earn points with every card purchase, with additional points earned at participating Marriott properties worldwide. Just a few points shy? You can also purchase up to 50,000 points a year.

Seems like a great deal to me since a week at the Wailea Marriott can easily go for $2500+ before taxes and resort fees. (The week of Christmas come in near $5K) You'll still be on the hook for the resort fees of course But for 140,000 Marriott points, I think I'm ok with that.

I've never actually stayed at the Marriott but I have been through the Hotel when staying down the street at the Grand Wailea. The lobby and public areas are incredibly nice and If I can figure out how to pick up another 70k points.

Here's a link to the Marriott Wailea Beach Resort Website

Partial T&Cs:

Marriott Rewards® US credit card holders in good standing with open accounts are eligible for offer. Offer is exclusive to the Wailea Beach Marriott® Resort & Spa only. Marriott Rewards members who book a redemption stay for 4 nights between May 1, 2012 and December 31, 2012, and begin their stay on or before December 31, 2012, will receive three (3) additional nights with no point redemption cost to the member. The entire seven-night (7) stay is valid for consecutive nights only. There is no limit to the number of times a member can redeem for this offer.

Reminder - Hyatt Platinum Status

This was covered by most of the prominent travel blogs last month.  I waited to sign up because I knew I didn't have an immediate need for the status so I figured I'd wait as long as possible to stretch the potential usage of the Platinum benefits.

- possibility of room upgrades(availability based)

- Expedited Check-in

Platinum members also receive a Platinum Extras certificate every 3rd stay which can be used for bonus points, dining discounts or room upgrades.

Most of us that play the Credit Cards for Signup bonuses game probably have a Visa Signature card in our aresenal, I happen to have a Citi Hhonors Visa that I'm using to sign up for the promo. If you don't have one, keep in mind that the site doesn't require it to be your card number, any valid number will work.
