There are two enormously generous benefits for Hyatt Gold Passport Diamond members that are often overlooked. The first is clearly laid out in the Terms and Conditions while the second is not. 1. 2500 bonus points for a closed club lounge. This benefit is clearly stated on the Hyatt website. During periods of high demand…

Andaz Suite At The Hyatt Andaz 5th Ave New York
The Hyatt Andaz 5th Avenue has 182 rooms of which 42 of them are suites. During my quest to maximize Hyatt promotions through the 65,000 imagination bonus or 44,000 possibilities bonus promotions, I was upgraded to both the Splash Suite and the Andaz Suite in addition to a number of stays in a regular king room. I have to…
Splash Suite At The Hyatt Andaz 5th Avenue In New York City
I found myself visiting New York often in 2012 and this meant I had quite the choice of hotels for my stays. Whether it was enjoying one of the great rooms at the Hyatt 48 Lex (corner suite, terrace studio) or one of the great rooms at the Hyatt Andaz 5th Avenue (Splash Suite, Andaz…
Terrace Studio At The Hyatt 48 Lex In New York City
The Hyatt 48 Lex in New York City is a more intimate hotel with only 116 rooms. At 15,000 Hyatt Gold Passport points for a one-night stay, this hotel offers a great product for a midtown hotel stay. The first few times we stayed here we received an upgrade to a corner suite with 435…
Crystal Clearwater – Gulf Front Suite At Hyatt Regency
Our first trip with Baby Flyer was a success. Not because we were upgraded to a two bedroom Gulf Front suite on a points reservation, but because we were able to spend time with family and reconnect. But the two bedroom Gulf Frontsuite, complimentary Diamond breakfasts and great weather certainly helped. From before we arrived to…
Crystal Clearwater – Best Beach Margarita Only 1 Mile From Hyatt
After our big day on the beach as a result of the awesome Hyatt Diamond breakfast and lunch, we set out in search of Clearwater Beach Florida’s best Margarita. We limited our search to restaurants and bars within 2 miles of the resort. The short radius limited our options but we found a gem of…
Crystal Clearwater – Hyatt Diamond Breakfast And Lunch
The night before we visited an amazing wedding at the Sandpearl. So it was nice to relax with family and enjoy a full breakfast with a view of the beach. As most loyal readers know, we here at Points, Miles & Martinis like Hyatt Diamond breakfast options. Hyatt provides their top tier elite members with…
Crystal Clearwater, Fl – Hyatt Regency Clearwater Resort Review
We ventured down to Florida and the Hyatt Regency Clearwater with Baby Weekly Flyer this summer. Florida greeted us with clear skies for as far as the eye could see. The water was clear and Hyatt Regency Clearwater really took care of this Diamond member during our stay at the Hyatt Regency Clearwater, Florida. The…
Martinis Down Under–Park Hyatt Sydney Part I
As I have posted before, I contend the Park Hyatt Sydney is the best hotel in the Hyatt portfolio of properties worldwide. One of the strongest reasons I believe this is true is because even the lowest category rooms at the Park Hyatt Sydney offer a truly aspirational stay. In this review, I will cover…
Martinis Down Under–Introduction and Trip Planning
I pride myself on a ‘book first, think later’ mentality when it comes to using points and miles. I wish I had some fancy story as to why a trip to Australia and the Great Barrier Reef needed to happen but in reality, it was the result of the decisions that are found at the…
North of Norway – Park Hyatt Washington DC
The stars must have aligned for my last night on the trip as I was upgraded to the Ambassador Suite at the Park Hyatt Washington DC. Spectacular. Introduction and trip planning Lufthansa First Class Dulles to Munich Lufthansa Munich First Class Lounge Lufthansa Business Class Munich to Oslo SAS Economy Class Oslo to Longyearbyen Radisson…
Weekend In Aruba – Delta Economy Comfort Flight Back Home
The two day getaway to Aruba was the perfect amount of time for us. We were able to secure tickets on Delta Airlines using flight vouchers and only came out of pocket around $100 each. For the hotel, we used 44,000 Hyatt Gold Passport points to book 2 nights at the Aruba Hyatt Regency Resort…
Weekend In Aruba – Hyatt Regency Aruba Resort And Casino
After a quick taxi ride we arrived at the Hyatt Regency Resort & Casino. The bellman greeted us and asked if we were checking into a Regency Club room. Since we answered yes, he escorted us to the elevator and we headed up to the 9th floor to check-in for our two night stay. Trip…
Amazing Aruba Sunset At Palm Beach
A two night getaway to Aruba wouldn’t be complete without taking in an amazing sunset. This was different than the sunset we witnessed in Bora Bora. There was no beach waitress to serve 2 for 1 Rasperry Mojitos, or any live band covering Jack Johnson. We packed a bag, headed down to the beach around…
The best Hyatt property of all is…
…subjective I know. However I do get a lot of reader emails asking what is the absolute best hotel possible for redemption using Hyatt points. My response has always been that if you can go anywhere, use your 22k at the Park Hyatt Tokyo. Well that has changed. This week I checked into the Park…
Park Hyatt Sydney – Ridiculous view for breakfast
Our Qantas A380 touched down early this morning at Sydney International Airport. We hopped on the train towards downtown and the Park Hyatt Sydney. We checked in around 8AM and the Park Hyatt graciously extended same day complimentary Diamond Breakfast for both of us. For a first time visitor to Australia, this was a great…
Imagine What 65,000 Hyatt Points Could Do For You This Fall
When I think of what I can do with 65,000 Hyatt Gold Passport points earned through this fall’s promotion, it gets my imagination going. This large sum of points is enough for 3 nights in a top tier Hyatt hotel or a virtual unlimited amount of suite upgrade nights on paid stays. The top tier…
One month left for the Hyatt Summer Airline Promo
There is still one full month left for the Hyatt Summer Airline Promo. For those that selected the first earning period (May 1 – July 31) of the SPG Nice Choice promotion like myself, this is a good opportunity to keep earning big value for your summer hotel stays. You start earning the bonus with…
Upgrade To Hyatt Diamond Status – Welcome Back Letter
Last week I spent a few hours at the Hyatt Penn’s Landing in Philadelphia as a Platinum member. The treatment received was nothing less than great. It had been a few years since I had let my Hyatt Diamond status lapse and this was my first stay as a Platinum member in quit some time.…
Few Hours At Hyatt Regency Philadelphia Penn’s Landing
Business travel takes a lot out of you. Waking up at 4 am for the first flight of the day. Leaving the office for a late dinner, only to return for a late work session. Finally getting back to the hotel never seems to be on the horizon, but when you get back to the…
