RWRDS Daily Update – September 28, 2023

Here’s your RWRDS Canada update! Your near daily dose of loyalty program, credit card and travel news, bonuses, deals and more.

World of Hyatt adding short term private home rentals to the program

Hyatt is the next major hotel chain getting in the private homes and villas market with Homes & Hideaways by World of Hyatt. This new option will offer World of Hyatt members access to a unique collection of private home rentals, and even more ways to earn and redeem points. It will launch in a couple of weeks and will initially only feature properties in the United States but they do have plans to grow the platfrom globally. Hopefully it won’t be long before Canadian locations are added as it is pretty tough to earn or redeem World of Hyatt points domestically!

With Homes & Hideaways by World of Hyatt, members will enjoy:

Direct booking access to a unique collection of short-term private home rentals
Earning points and tier-qualifying night credits on stays
Standard elite-tier bonuses
Ability to redeem points for stays at home rental properties
More locations, more experiences and more opportunities to earn and redeem
