Marriott has been strongly promoting Homes & Villas By Marriott for the past few months. Earlier, Marriott had a 2x points promotion. Now, it is back with a fixed 40000 Marriott Bonvoy Bonus Points for stays at Home & Villas by Marriott.
What is Homes & Villas by Marriott?
Homes & Villas by Marriott is similar to AirBnB, but here, you also earn points and elite night credit for stays. Most of the time, the property owner lists their property online on multiple rental booking portals, including Marriott. So, it is not necessary that the rental rate on Marriott’s site will be cheaper. But this is where such promotions come in handy.
