Episode Description

Here in Chicago, I am pretty much freezing from November through May, and all I want is sunshine and heat. I have warm weather destinations on my brain right now, and with that theme in mind, in today’s episode, I decided to compare three tropical Hyatt hotel properties where you can use points for your next warm weather vacation, if a warm weather hotel stay is also on your travel wish list right now.

Whether you are looking to head for warmer weather to thaw out from winter, a relaxing solocation or trip with your partner, or you want to take your family for a beach vacation, there are so many great options to save a ton of money using points for a tropical hotel stay. Having spent a good amount of time in each of the resorts I’m talking about this week, I’m putting each of these properties head-to-head to give you an idea of what you can expect in each, and which one might be the best fit for your travel plans.

Join me as I break down the basics of each of these three resorts. I’ll cover the accommodation I booked, how much they cost in points, how much cash you can save by using points to book, and how they stack up against each other in terms of facilities. I also show you how much those same rooms would have cost in cash so you can see if it would be worth it for you to use your points at these properties and to understand what the potential value of those points can be.
