Anyone booked a room on points for 3 or 4 adults? It seems to be 80k in points regardless of number of adults. Just seeing if I can let a couple of close friends tag along for free and not get charged for extra persons when I show up to the hotel.

Just checked in here today. Booked with points and a free night certificate. Did upgrade to ocean view swim up for $150 a night, wife loves it.

If anyone has any questions, let me know.

so you did 5th night free, plus added an extra night? So 150x6 is $600 total? How many points? How’s the swim up? Worth $150 a night?

I did 2 nights on points and 1 free night certificate. $450 total, points per night was 80k. Swim up is connected to the main pool, it’s very nice, I think worth it. It also comes with a free daily cabana and free dinner at chefs plate each night if you want, if you get the upgraded room.

This resort is adults only which is 16 or 18 and up iirc. Not sure if you can book more than 2 people.

Just booked this property for 5 nights in late February. Is it worth grabbing the Aspire card for Diamond status during our stay (currently Gold)? Mainly thinking for a shot at an upgraded room (booked the base Junior Suite). Any other goodies that can be had that I'm not thinking of?

The certificate terms state "Your free night reward can be redeemed for one standard accommodation, double occupancy, subject to availability at properties in the Hilton portfolio..."
So yes, it covers two people.

Thanks. I wasn't sure if occupancy necessarily equated to the food/drink/etc provided on property and wanted to find out if the folks ITT who used a free night cert successfully, did so with a guest...

I highly recommend NAST Transfers. I have using them for my past few Mexico vacations. Clean and new vehicles - friendly, professional and reliable drivers.
