To be fair to Starwood (and I am no great fan) does offer a nights and flights award that would give you 50,000 FF miles and five nights hotel for 70,000 points. Even if you did not want the miles you could convert the miles ironically to 100,000 Hilton points.

The other comparison point that is not taken into account here and is especially true in the Hawaii arena is the availabiltiy of the awards. With Marriot you will pay a premium to override the blackout restrictions. Hilton will not allow it unless you are a diamond, and I do not know Hyatts policy. Starwoods great claim to fame is no blackout dates. This can be an important consideration to those of us with children who travel at premium times of the year.

The comparison is still apples and oranges.
