32 paid Nights

22 Award Nights

10 MR Nights

16 GoH Nights Booked/Stayed

80 Nights total given to Hyatt via my Hyatt account.

We traveled with 2 Adults and 1 Child for ~95% of the stays only 1 stay of 4 nights did not include the child.

Breakfast Average cost was $90 for the nights with the child and the 4 nights without the child also ended up being ~ $90 at Andaz Papagayo.

Total - $90 x 54 (subtracting 10 for the MR nights) - $4,860

However, 12 nights stayed were at HH or HP so it would be -

$90 x 42 (subtracting 10 for the MR nights) - $3,780

Over the actual 64 Nights stayed (54 after subtracting the MR nights) we received upgrades to suites on 9/10 of the stays, including stays at HH and HP the other 1/10 we received a preferred upgrade.

The average upgrade cost was ~ $120 difference from the base room booked. But conservatively let’s say I booked via a corporate discount and the difference was only $80.

$80 x 48 (9/10 of the stays, subtracting 10 for the MR nights) - $3,840

Just on those 2 benefits alone we’re nearing 8k.(Edited above to reflect the 10 MR nights).
Again, if you wouldn't have paid cash, then it wasn't "worth" those numbers.

Even in NYC, one has to work hard to spend ~$40/person for breakfast. And yet you're claiming that as the baseline value everywhere.
