Marriott Rewards program: clever way to free hotel stays

The Marriott Rewards program has some terrific brands such as JW Marriott Marquis and Ritz Carlton. Additionally, the merger with Starwood Preferred Guest brings in even more UAE hotels and resorts.

With luxury resorts in the UAE (worth 2,500 AED per night) available for 40,000 Marriott Reward Points,  these represent great redemption value.

This travel hack can apparently obtain up to 45,000 Marriott Rewards Points per year. More so, it doesn't cost any money, is quick and easy to do, and seemingly more Points are available at regular intervals.

Earn bonus points in Marriott Rewards program with Reply Rewards

As an added bonus, Marriott Rewards are offering ‘Reply Rewards' – up to 4 a month – where members can earn Points by interacting on social media.

I earned 1,000 Marriott Rewards Points by answering a question (with the #RewardsPoints hashtag) about NFL on Twitter. I didn't know the answer, but many on Twitter already had answered correctly – so I used that answer!

 

The Points posted within 24 hours, and I received confirmation of a correct answer by DM.

Here's a Youtube video explaining the promotion and the advantages

 

Is it worth doing though?

Marriott Rewards claim up to 45,000 Marriott Rewards Points are available in a year for each member using this promotion.

30,000 Rewards Points is a good redemption target and can get you into a stunning hotel such as JW Marriott Marquis Dubai. IF Marriott continues to offer easy 1,000 points each week, that's only another 28 weeks to a free night – or less for a lower category hotel.

So just keep checking that hashtag #RewardsPoints and the Marriott Rewards accounts on all 3 social media…
