As an example, right now there are three hotels still available on the current pointbreaks in the Middle East - 5000 points per night redemption. Pretty easy to earn enough for a few nights there.
With IHG you can always purchase Ambassador status. It comes with a free weekend night and 5,000 points to make up for the cost and it provides reasonable upgrades as well as Platinum status in Priority Club and a few other small perks.
