Good advice to consider converting to airline miles. BUT if you have the time and inclination, Southeast Asia tends to offer the best value for Starwood points, in that many excellent hotels there are in lower categories than equivalent hotels in most other parts of the world. Way too many to list, but for example we recently stayed at the Andaman Langkawi in Malaysia and loved it.
