Our Verdict
Pretty sweet deal, especially if you can work the spend out to just in the $500 area, effectively getting 50% off. I believe all taxes and fees will count toward the $500 threshold, similar to how it works with Amex Offers. Other charges which you charge to the room should be included as well, I’d think.
Hat tip to readers Matt, USam and to Grant
My wife and I went to Hyatt Ziva Cancun on an award stay; we both have Hyatt cards and both registered for this promotion. We were contacted by the concierge ahead of the stay, I asked about upgrades, he offered Ocean Front for free or Turquoize Tower for $100/night (4 nights). I took the upgrade offer in light of this promotion. We also then went to the spa twice for $700, for a total of $1100 w/the upgrade.
They collected the $400 for the upgrade at check-in, then split the remaining bill so each card was charged for $550 ($150 on card 1 used at check-in, and $550 on card 2 at check-out).
Both credits posted 7 days later.
What do they mean when they say “Offer not valid for purchases made online”? Booking a room on their app does count right? That wording makes me wonder.
anyone knows if, upon request, the resort will charge the CC in full before the stay with a standard booking?
Myself and P2 both have the card. Would like to do a ~$1000 trip, and use my account with explorist status to hopefully get an upgrade (Hers is just discoverist). Do you think I’d need to just charge $500 to her card, or make a booking under her name as well. I know to register you need Hyatt loyalty number so had me thinking a little conservatively here.
I’d think you could just book under you and split the cost between 2 cards.
Sorry for the noob question, but can I get cash back if I make reservation for the resort, or is it only limited to service used within the resort(eg. Massage)?
Both work just the same
Would love any data points on whether or not prepaid non-refundable rates are charged immediately. Planning a trip in July.
If I apply for the WoH card today, will I be eligible for this promotion?
Ugh… going to Zilara Cancun in July. Would have been nice towards an upgrade or spa
I got this offer but don’t want to go to these locations.
What does spending directly mean? Does this include the booking fee?
