Get up to 10 free hotel nights with your Marriott Bonvoy points!

Marriott Bonvoy points can save a lot of money for your travel. Depending on the destination, you can get one or more free hotel nights with points.

Here are several tips to know before finding out what these points can get you in this country.

Credit card sign-up bonuses

Marriott Bonvoy partners with American Express in Canada by issuing two Marriott Bonvoy credit cards (one for consumers and one for SMEs).

By signing up for the Marriott Bonvoy® American Express®* Card, you can earn 50,000 Marriott Bonvoy points.

If you also sign up for the American ExpressMD Marriott BonvoyTM Business Card, you could earn 50,000 Marriott Bonvoy points.

That’s 100,000 Marriott Bonvoy points with both credit cards.

If you are a couple – or with a travel companion – you can earn between 100,000 and 200,000 Marriott Bonvoy points!

Point transfers

You can also transfer points to Marriott Bonvoy from one of these seven American Express Membership Rewards Cards:

The transfer rate is 1:1.2 (or 5:6). This means that if you transfer 10,000 Membership Rewards points, you will receive 12,000 Marriott Bonvoy points.

Transfer up to 100,000 points per year

Each year, you can transfer up to 100,000 Marriott Bonvoy points for free from one Marriott Bonvoy account to another. It is a convenient method to book hotel nights from a single account to:

  • Combine points earned on a spouse or a travel buddy’s Marriott Bonvoy credit cards.
  • Benefit from a Marriott Bonvoy Elite status
  • Earn Elite nights for renewal of a status
  • Book hotel nights with points by taking advantage of the “Stay 5 nights, Pay for 4” tip.

Stay for 5, Pay for 4 Policy

When redeeming your Marriott Bonvoy points, you can benefit from the “Stay for 4, pay for 4” perk.

With this advantage, you save about 20% of your booking price, so you use fewer points for a longer stay!

The Philippines and Marriott Bonvoy

Now that you know the main tips about earning and redeeming Marriott Bonvoy points, let’s look at the good deals at this destination.

There are 5 Marriott Bonvoy locations in the Philippines.

Hotel Location Points per night
Courtyard Iloilo Iloilo City 10-15k
Clark Marriott Hotel Mabalacat 15-20k
Manila Marriott Hotel Manila 30-40k
Sheraton Manila Bay Manila 30-40k
Sheraton Manila Hotel Pasay City 30-40k

Here’s how much a 10-night stay in one of these hotels would cost in points:

  • Hotels from 10,000 points: between 80,000 and 120,000 points
  • Hotels from 15,000 points: between 120,000 and 160,000 points
  • Hotels from 20,000 points: between 160,000 and 240,000 points

These points are easily earned by subscribing to the Marriott Bonvoy® American Express®* Card or the Marriott Bonvoy® Business American Express®* Card.

So, with the welcome bonus from a single credit card, you could get up to 6 free nights in a hotel:

By visiting two different destinations, over 5 nights each, your 10-night stay in the Philippines will therefore have cost you between 80,000 and 120,000 Marriott Bonvoy points.
