Quick Thoughts
If you were planning a paid stay at a beach resort, this targeted Amex Offer is a good way to save up to 20% on your accommodation costs. It’s kind of a randon list of properties as it’s simply beach resort locations all the way from Bora Bora to Colombia. As noted above, be sure to check the list of participating properties as not every Hilton property will trigger the statement credit.
For the foreign properties, it’s also important to ensure that your bill will come to $1000 or more by the time you stay. If your total is only marginally above $1000 when converted to USD today, exchange rate fluctuations between now and your stay could result in it dropping below $500 when converted. While a better currency conversion is beneficial in that it lowers your bill, if it means missing out on the $200 statement credit…then it’s not so good.

Has anyone tried this offer on non-refundable rates? The term says the offer does not apply to non-refundable rates….
Got it on my old Blue and have a conference in Orlando coming up at a Hilton.
Darn. I just returned from Zemi
Any Hilton specific advice on splitting payment and how to ensure it works out? Both P1 and P2 have this offer and a qualifying stay coming up where this would actually really help.
I’ve walked down to the desk with player 2 at Hilton Hawaiian Village many times in the past during my stay and asked the agent to make a one time payment of x amount on the card I hand them. Leave player 1 card on file, use player 2 card for one time payment. Clunky and they think I’m weird, but whatever. I wait until the charges are big enough to justify whatever payment I’m making. In other words no credit balances. Then remainder charges that accrue get charged to player 1 card on file. You could also just split it at checkout how you wish at the desk ♀️♀️
You can actually do it with three cards. We had spend $600 get $120 back as an AMEX Offer on the Platinum card of P1 and P2. The night before we checked out, we just walked to the front desk and said “We’d like to make a prepayment of $600 on each of these cards. We are no changing the card on file.” No one questioned it. Did this another time at a different hotel–again, no issues. The key for us is to do it before the last night so the bill doesn’t need to be redone. Agree to wait so the bill doesn’t go into a negative balance.
Thanks for confirming this is a way to do it! (Edit: I understand about the negative balance after re-reading.)
Thanks for confirming that’s a way to do it!
