Marriott has, after four-month hiatus, launched its Embrace More global bonus points offer that is valid for stays from today.
Marriott Bonvoy members earn 1,500 bonus points for each stay consumed between September 14 – December 12, 2021. There is an additional bonus of 3,000 for stays at All-Inclusive Resorts.
You can access this offer on Marriott’s website here.

Note that you must register for this offer by November 28, 2021. Only stays consumed after registration count towards the bonus
Bonus Offer
- 1,500 bonus points for each eligible stay
- 4,500 bonus points for each eligible stay at an All-Inclusive resort
Select Bonvoy members are also eligible for a targeted bonus:
Marriott Bonvoy Free Night Certificate – Offer (Targeted Promotion) Through October 31, 2021
You should check if your account qualifies for a one.
Conclusion
This bonus offer makes only sense for short and inexpensive stays if you consider that 1,500 points are worth around $10. Not much of a bonus for longer and more expensive stays when Hilton is offering double & triple points throughout the end of 2021.
This may convince me to stay twice with Marriott during the promotional period because I can combine the offer with the targeted bonus extended to my Bonvoy account.
I have started to prefer double & triple points offers because I rarely do hotel hopping anymore. Rather stay 3 to 7 nights in one hotel.
Here are the terms and conditions of this offer:
Registration of your Marriott Bonvoy™ account is required. Marriott Bonvoy members who register for this promotion by November 28, 2021, will earn 1,500 bonus points per eligible paid stay, plus 3,000 additional points per eligible paid stay at All-Inclusive by Marriott Bonvoy resorts, during the promotion earning period. The promotion earning period is for stays between September 14, 2021, and December 12, 2021, at participating Marriott Bonvoy properties. Only stays made after registration will qualify toward the promotion. A “stay” is defined as consecutive nights spent at the same hotel, regardless of check-in/checkout activity on any points-eligible rate (“Qualifying Rate”). Award redemption stays where points are redeemed for the entire stay are not eligible for the promotion. Rates available through most third-party online retailers and select travel agency rates do not qualify for this promotion. Homes & Villas by Marriott International, Marriott Executive Apartments®, and Marriott Vacation Club® owner-occupied weeks are not eligible for bonus points, and nights spent while redeeming an award are not eligible for bonus points. Only one room per hotel is counted toward a member’s nights or stay. Bonuses of 1,500 points per stay will be awarded to the member’s account within 7 business days after checkout. Bonuses of 3,000 points for stays at All-Inclusive resorts will be awarded to the member’s account up to 6 weeks after the promotion ends.

John, there is a mistake in your post.
“4,500 bonus points for each eligible stay at an All-Inclusive resort”
It should be 3,000.
Sorry my mistake. 1,500 plus 3,000 bonus points. You are right.
Yep. I was going to comment. Additional 3,000 bonus points for a total bonus of 4,500 points.
@@John_Ollila:disqus I saw some properties in Bangkok having rates coming with 5000 Bonus points
Can you cumulate these bonuses?
Yes. The 5,000 bonus points is tied to the rate that you book. This is a global bonus promo.
@@John_Ollila:disqus Thanks.
I wish they released more details on the Bangkok conditions of entry.
It is really tempting to fly to Bangkok, enjoy the different properties while gaining points.
Not keen on going through the forced 2 week stay in Phuket before heading to Bangkok
Sorry my mistake. 1,500 plus 3,000 bonus points. You are right.
I don’t want a Bonus.I just want Marriott to be kind and extend Suite Night awards that are likely to be fore-fitted beck to them before Australia Re-opens . No need to be as uncaring as All Nippon Airways.
Agree . Being in lockdown can’t use my 12 Suite nights . In Sydney we have all but one Bonvoy hotel being used for quarantine. Can’t check into the one that’s open because of lockdown.
I live in the US and got this promotion. Definitely on the stingy side. In the past they have had promotions that offer more bonus points with each stay.

John, it is not a global offer, maybe it’s targeted: right now there’s no trace of this offer in my account….
Marriott has had issues with the global offers for as long as I can recall. As long as your earning preference are points (no automatic miles deposits), you SHOULD be able to sign up. If not possible, you should contact customer service.
Thanks John! Called the customer service, they told they have manually registered for the promotion… still not visible in my account/promotion central… fingers crossed!
