SPG Paradise Is Closer 35% Off Starpoints Awards At Select Resorts Through March 5, 2018

Reading Time: 4 mins read

Starwood Preferred Guest (SPG) has relaunched its “Paradise Is Closer” 35% off award promotion for stays through March 5, 2018.SPG Paradise Is Closer 2017

You can save 35% off of awards at eight ridiculously priced (using Starpoints) hotels that don’t have “standard” accommodations available (suites only).

You can access this offer on Starwood’s website here.

Note that SPG has not yet updated their website for this year. I have received the list of eight participating directly from SPG that you can find below.

Here are the participating hotels and required number of points this year:

  • W Retreat & Spa – Maldives – 58,500
  • The St. Regis Bora Bora Resort – 58,500
  • Le Méridien Bora Bora – 39,000
  • Vana Belle, a Luxury Collection Resort, Koh Samui – 39,000
  • W Retreat Koh Samui – 39,000
  • Al Maha, a Luxury Collection Desert Resort & Spa, Dubai – 39,000
  • The Naka Island, a Luxury Collection Resort & Spa, Phuket – 26,000
  • The St. Regis Maldives Vommuli Resort – 58,500

Note that you can still get the fifth night free even when using this award type and save more on longer stays. These awards are not available online; you have to call SPG to book and remind them about the discount.

Here are the hotels available previous year (still listed on that linked website):

Conclusion

These are some of the most expensive and usually overpriced awards that you can find from SPG due to the “non-standard accommodations” clause that results jacking up the Starpoints rate to the skies.

Seems that the Mystique propriety in Santorini is gone and the St Regis in Maldives is added to the list this year. There has been changes in number of Starpoints required at some participating properties.

Here are the OLD terms and conditions:

SPG members will receive a 35% Starpoint redemption discount for Free Night Awards that are booked at participating properties between September 1, 2016 and February 28, 2017 (the “Promotion Period”) for any dates available during the Promotion Period.

  • The St. Regis Bora Bora Resort, French Polynesia
  • Le Meridien Bora Bora, French Polynesia
  • Al Maha Desert Resort & Spa, a Luxury Collection Resort, Dubai, UAE
  • Mystique, a Luxury Collection Hotel, Santorini, Greece

TERMS & CONDITIONS:
