Marriott Bonvoy is offering 24,000 bonus Marriott Bonvoy points and 10% off when you book a 2+ night stay in a private home rental between August 5-21, 2024 and stay between August 5th and December 20, 2024. Unfortunately, your booking needs to be for a minimum of $2,000 in order to qualify, so this won’t be worth a mattress run but will rather be a nice little bonus if you’ve already got a qualifying rental in mind.

Quick Thoughts
As noted at the top, the minimum spend on your booking to qualify for this promotion is $2,000. Our Reasonable Redemption Value for Marriott Bonvoy points is 0.7c per point, the added bonus here is worth about $168. That’s like a return of 8.4%, which comes in addition to the 5 base points earned per dollar spent and any elite bonuses for which you ordinarily qualify. As a result, this promotion isn’t worth doing just for the sake of the points, but added on top of points you already earn, it could make for a nice rebate.
That said, you’ll want to shop around. Many properties listed through Marriott Homes & Villas are also listed on other vacation rental platforms like Airbnb and Vrbo. Prices often vary, and it’s hard to know how much value you can really get from the “10% off” component of the deal, so you’ll want to be sure that you aren’t overpaying just for the chance to earn some Marriott points. However, if you find a situation where the price is right on a Marriott Homes & Villas property, keep this promotion in mind as a nice bonus.
