We’re planning to be in Kauai for a week in mid-December, but I’m thinking of extending the trip an extra 10 days. Would we have enough to do with a 4yo in tow? Or maybe not worth it to stay that long? Staying at the Grand Hyatt first week, then downgrade to Sheraton Coconut Beach.

We are stopping off in London for 24 hours on our way to the Maldives. I am looking for a Marriott property and there are many (Sheraton, Renaissance, Moxy, etc) close to Heathrow. They are all relatively cheap at under 100 GBP. Is this because the area near the airport is unsafe? Should I spend a little more and stay further from the airport? I would like to see some sites in our 24 hours but honestly just looking to have a few pints and fish and chips.

Anyone have experience with Marriott’s new “dynamic” redemption rates? Did you feel you were using more points than if it was in the old system (i.e. category based, on/off-peak)? I don’t understand how a Fairfield/Springhill has the same redemption as a Westin/Sheraton in NYC… WT flying F

Just got a “Sheraton Vacations” special offer to basically get 5 nights at a Florida property for $250.

I read the fine print and other than a need to be flexible in terms of when you book, it doesn’t seem like there is a catch.
