Are you seeing any points availability for 2020? I don't see a single date available for Standard Reward redemption from Jan through May 2020.

Seeing points space from now til end of June 2020

Odd thing, some base room 120K space is available to book online for some dates. Other dates say to call the 800# to book.

In running the numbers below th website crashed a few times. My guess is they are still updating.

Rizla, you have to take what WorldTrvl says with a grain of salt. Half of what he posts he doesn't know what he's talking about. Out of his 53 posts so far about 3 of them have proven to be useful and / or may contain the odd fact or two.

King Reef Villa at USD1544 vs King Beach Villa at USD 2107
But why only the BV is eligible to 120k redemption?

Book the BV on points and ask the resort for an upgrade (or is that downgrade?) to the RV with cash refund $563

My first thought was that you actually got someone from the resort to agree to this!

I've had a long day at work, time to head home.

Is anyone finding that Standard Rewards are available on certain dates when on Incognito Mode or not being logged in? As soon as I log in during the same session, the rate disappears ("This rate is no longer available"). Is this phantom availability or are they blocking certain accounts from making award bookings at this property?

Do you have enough points in your account to make the booking?

If you don't have enough points Hilton won't show availability whne you are logged in, but it will if you are not logged in.

EDIT: I have just checked and am seeing plenty of available dates that are bookable with my account that has plenty of points.

I don't have enough points, but I know for a fact that availability was shown prior to making my previous booking at this property, even before I had bought the points for redemption...

That is the problem then. The availbility is there, it just won't appear as bookable when you are logged in because you don't have the points. This has been happening for Hilton for years.

If you have enough points for 1 or 2 nights try searching that while logged in and see what results you get.
