Fwiw, there were some serious issues with my bill that lasted well after checkout. Namely, there was a $93 charge from Katsuya from before I checked in (or even arrived in Bahamas for that matter). I think because of this, my points and nights didn't post at all either (I checked out on the 5th). I called Hyatt Globalist Line this morning and the woman treated me really nicely. She definitely gave me more eligible spend than I actually spent, and I ended up getting a whopping 13,500 points for my 4 night stay where I spent a total of $750. Woohoo!
how do you get proactively upgraded to the one bedroom residence delux. I’m booked for January and asked my concierge to apply my suite upgrade and ask the hotel if they can upgrade me to the residence but they came back and said only grand suite king. How far in advance of the reservation did they upgrade you? TIA!
