Marriott Bonvoy’s autumn global promotion pays 1,500 bonus points on every paid stay of two nights or more. Stays at a property Marriott classes as a resort earn 3,000 more, for 4,500 in all. You must register by 13 November 2026, and the stay must be completed by 22 November. That leaves about four weeks, which is enough for a weekend away or a two-night business trip.
Everything below comes from Marriott’s own promotion page and terms, read on 26 October.
Does it work in the UAE?
Yes, at participating hotels. Marriott describes the promotion as “worldwide”, and the terms exclude no country. They do exclude some brands, and two of them operate in the UAE:
- BVLGARI hotels.
- Marriott Executive Apartments.
The Ritz-Carlton Yacht Collection and owner-occupied timeshare weeks are also excluded.
The 3,000-point resort bonus applies only at hotels on Marriott’s resorts list. We have not checked which UAE properties are on it. Check your hotel before you count on 4,500.
The rules that matter
- Register first. Registration is at marriottbonvoy.com/MoreAtResorts or under the Promotions tab in your account. Only stays completed after you register count.
- Two nights or more, on one reservation, at one hotel. A stay counts if at least two of its nights fall inside the 22 September to 22 November window.
- Paid, points-eligible rates, booked direct. Book on Marriott’s websites or app, with the hotel, or through its call centres. Award stays, Cash + Points and most third-party site rates do not qualify.
- No cap. Every qualifying stay earns the bonus, one room per stay.
- Not if you earn miles. A member who has chosen to earn airline miles instead of points cannot take part. If your Bonvoy account is set to earn Skywards Miles or Etihad Guest Miles, you do not qualify.
- When it posts. The 1,500 points arrive within 10 business days of checkout. The resort 3,000 can take up to eight weeks after 22 November.
What it is worth
At our 2.5-fils Bonvoy baseline, the 1,500 points are worth about AED 37.50. A qualifying resort stay worth 4,500 points comes to about AED 112.50. That is worth registering for if you already have a stay booked. It is not enough to justify booking one.
