As for W Retreat & Spa - Maldives and W Retreat Koh Samui, they have Limited Participation in the Starwood Preferred Guest Program because all rooms at these two properties are villas; therefore, Starpoint Award reservations must be booked at a higher Starpoint rate through customer contact center. You may view this information on their websites.

Fifth Night Free Award does not apply to Starpoint Award reservations booked at these two properties.
