I was able to book 5 nights in Capri for september 2009 to use with my European hopper. I think I found them in oct-nov, but I looked on line couple of times per day for three weeks. At some point I had 7 nights booked, but I gave away two because we will also stay in Monte Carlo for 2 days.

Now that I am reading all the posts about the bad room at the JW Capri I am a little freaked out! I know rooms are expensive in Capri, and it's nice to stay for free, but I got these points a couple of years back when I became a MVCI owner, and I feel that Marriott owes me a nice stay somewhere, as they promised in their sales pitch. However, that was years ago, and now everything has changed.

I was very surprised when I saw that the JW Capri has no nights what so ever in any season available for rewards. Last year there was always something available. I knew that usually in sept-oct availability was decent, but since the new point system we can say good bye to this rooms.

I also have on my reservation the same message as the others, but they told me everything is going to be ok. We will see who goes first and what happens this year.
