I see that Mystique has limited participation in SPG. Has anyone had success redeeming at this property?

Also--am looking for some more ideas on where to use my SPG points.

Travel US and abroad about six times each year with Ms. Travelexpert and our 9 year old daughter. On occassion our teenage sons join us, in which case we get a second room. Sometimes just a long weekend, other times 10 days ex-US (Europe, Asia and South America are our current focus).

We love beach destinations (for example, think South Beach or Phuket) and intense cities (think NYC, Paris, Istanbul, or Shanghai). And are always on the lookout for exotic (think Chiang Mai or Patagonia).

Am looking more these days for larger rooms with kitchenette/kitchen.
