For instance, Hilton Moorea, at 11 months out, is quoting the nightly rate for the entry KING GARDEN BUNGALOW POOL room at Premium Reward Room prices of around 100,000 points/night, instead of the proper 42,250 points/night VIP pricing for a 4-night stay.
I looked 2 years out at Bora Bora. 1 night 10/6/2013-10/7/2013. There was another thread talking about King rooms being Premium Rewards and the Twin Lagoon View was the only room type being reported as a standard room type. Now, even the Twin Lagoon View is listed as a Premium Reward - 161,361 pts per night. Similar story at Moorea. Twin Garden Bungalow Pool room is 103,638 pts per night. Both are these are the absolute base rooms at the properties.
I do not understand how Hilton can completely remove all standard room types at a hotel. Especially when properties like the ones at the Maldives can still offer standard rewards....
Ohhh, and always remember, Premium Room Rewards are an enhancement to your HHonors experience
