(EXPIRED) Marriott Homes & Villas promo: Earn 20k points when staying 3+ nights (minimum $1,400 spend)

Marriott Homes & Villas has been much more consistent with running bonus points promotions than Marriott Bonvoy has for its hotel brands. Homes & Villas is back with a new promo offering 20,000 bonus points on stays, but there are some key details to be aware of.

The Deal

• Earn 20,000 bonus points when staying 3+ nights at Marriott Homes & Villas properties.
• Direct link to registration.

Key Terms

• A “stay” is defined as three (3) or more consecutive nights spent at the same property, regardless of check-in and check-out activity.
• Registration of Marriott Bonvoy Member’s Marriott Bonvoy account is required for this promotion.  Members must register by September 24, 2023. See REGISTER NOW Link on: https://homes-and-villas.marriott.com/en/offers/20KSEP23
• Registered Marriott Bonvoy Members earn 20,000 bonus Points per eligible paid stay at a participating home rental booked between September 6, 2023 (12:01 AM EST) – September 24, 2023 (11:59 PM EST) through the Homes & Villas by Marriott Bonvoy website (“HVMB Platform”). Payment for stay must be made in cash.
• Stays of three (3) or more consecutive nights must be completed during the promotion earning period, beginning September 6, 2023, up to and including nights stayed on or before January 26, 2024.

• Members electing to earn miles are not eligible for this promotion.
• No points are awarded for cancellation or no-show.

Quick Thoughts

If you were planning on booking a stay with Marriott Homes & Villas anyway, registering for this offer is a no-brainer. However, it’s nowhere near as amazing as the offer earlier this year that offered 40,000 bonus points when staying 4+ nights. Not only is the number of points you earn halved, but they’ve now added a minimum spend requirement of $1,400. Considering how expensive some Homes & Villas properties can be, spending that much won’t be harder for stays of more than just a few nights, but it’s worth being aware of in case the bonus points would otherwise have influenced your booking decisions for stays costing less than that.

The good thing is that there’s a Marriott Homes & Villas Amex Offer giving $250 back when spending $1,000 which can reduce your overall outlay. Also be sure to click through from a shopping portal before making a reservation – here are the current rates.
